[0027] In order to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, a specific embodiment is provided below, in which only the parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are shown.

[0028] Example:

[0029] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the utility model provides an ecological circulation fish tank, including a shallow water tank 1, an ecological planting pool 2 and a water pump 3. The shallow water tank 1 is used to breed animals living in shallow water, such as jumping fish, and the ecological planting pool 2 is used to plant plants. The shallow water tank 1 is located below the ecological planting pool 2. The shallow water tank 1 and the ecological planting pool 2 are connected by the water pump 3 to recycle the water body. Thus, the ammonia and nitrogen substances produced by the organisms in the shallow water tank 1 are pumped into the ecological planting pool 2 by the water pump, absorbed and purified by the plants, and then flow back to the lower shallow water tank 1. This embodiment cultivates organisms through the shallow water tank 1, and the ecological planting pool 2 absorbs and purifies the ammonia and nitrogen substances produced by the cultivated organisms, and forms a water circulation system through the water pump 3, which is suitable for jumping fish farming, taking into account both ecological circulation and fish farming. At the same time, plant planting also improves the ornamental value of the fish tank.

[0030] As an optional implementation, Figure 4As shown, a shallow water tank 1 is provided with a small reptile island 11, preferably in the shape of a hill with a high center and low surrounding areas. Reptile island 11 is used by animals cultured in the shallow water tank 1 to land and interact with each other, thereby increasing the area for animals to move around and achieve better breeding results. Reptile island 11 includes a shallow area 111, a raised area 112, and several pillars 113. The shallow area 111 is located around the reptile island 11, facilitating the animals' landing and crawling. The raised area 112 is a hollow structure located in the center of the shallow area 111, providing shelter for some animals. The top of the raised area 112 is preferably a relatively flat surface, and the middle position also serves as a convenient feeding area. Pillars 113 support reptile island 11. The specific number and arrangement of pillars can be set as needed, so that the reptile island 11 is partially exposed above the surface of the shallow water tank 1. The suspended water area supported by the pillars 113 not only increases the movement space for amphibians, but also facilitates the placement of fully aquatic animals, increasing the diversity of the ecological microsystem. For example, tilapia and other euryhaline fish can be used to remove food residues that fall into the water surface from jumping fish and other fish.

[0031] As an optional implementation, Figure 3 As shown, the ecological planting pool 2 includes a deep planting area 21 and a shallow planting area 22. The deep planting area 21 and the shallow planting area 22 are arranged adjacent to each other and are connected to each other through a water trough gap 223. A water trough gap 223 is set at the bottom of the inner wall of the shallow planting area 22. The height of the water trough gap 223 is slightly lower than the controlled water level of the deep planting area 21, thereby ensuring that water always seeps into the shallow planting area 22. At the bottom of the shallow planting area 22, an isolation layer such as volcanic stone and filter cotton is laid to isolate the soil from the seepage layer at the bottom. In this way, the roots of the plants can penetrate the isolation layer to absorb water and ensure the respiration of the roots. This connection design not only ensures the water demand for the growth of plants in the shallow planting area, but also prevents the soil in the shallow planting area 22 from entering the water circulation system and polluting the circulating water. The seepage effect of the shallow planting area 21 is bidirectional, which can avoid water accumulation in the shallow planting area 21 and avoid the tedious actions of frequent manual watering and checking soil moisture, thereby ensuring the stability of the self-operation of the micro-ecosystem. The deep planting area 21 is preferably located behind the shallow planting area 22 to facilitate viewing of the fish tank. The deep planting area 21 is used to plant aquatic seedlings, such as mangroves, whose roots can extend to the bottom of the shallow water tank. The shallow planting area 22 is used to plant aquatic herbs. The combination of the deep planting area 21 and the shallow planting area 22 can fully utilize the height space of the fish tank, ensure the overall height coordination of the fish tank, and ensure the rationality of the supplementary lighting.

[0032] As an optional implementation, Figure 2As shown, the shallow planting area 22 is provided with a water supply pipe 221, and a water storage bottle 222 is provided above the water supply pipe 221. After the water is stored in the water storage bottle 222, the water supply function through the water supply pipe 221 can be realized by the atmospheric pressure difference. The water supply pipe 221 is connected to the shallow water tank 1. The water supply pipe 221 includes a long pipe and a short pipe arranged in parallel. The bottom of the water supply pipe 221 is inserted below the water surface of the shallow water tank 1, and the bottom of the short pipe is just level with the water surface. Both the long pipe and the short pipe are configured as hard pipes. Compared with the soft pipe, on the one hand, they are neat and beautiful, and on the other hand, they avoid water level changes caused by uncontrolled bending of the pipe. When the water level of the bottom fish tank is lower than the short pipe, due to the effect of atmospheric pressure, the water in the shallow planting area 22 automatically flows to the shallow water tank 1 for replenishment, thereby maintaining the water level of the bottom fish tank at a constant level for a long time.

[0033] As an optional implementation, Figure 2 、 Figure 4 As shown, the eco-circulation fish tank also includes a feeding pipe 4, located above the crawling island 11, for feeding the fish cultured in the shallow water tank 1. The feeding pipe 4 has a slender S-shaped structure, which allows the food to slide gently down and prevents food from accumulating and clogging the feeding pipe 4. The top end of the feeding pipe 4 protrudes from the shallow water tank 1, and the feeding port is shaped like an enlarged trumpet. This large opening facilitates the delivery of granular fish food. Furthermore, the feeding port of the feeding pipe is inclined downward in the horizontal plane. Preferably, the bottom of the feeding pipe 4, that is, the feeding port, is close to the top of the crawling island 11, and the feeding port is bent toward the top plane of the crawling island 11, so as to facilitate the slow landing of the granular fish food. The food can accurately fall on the relatively flat raised area 112 in the center of the crawling island 11 through the pipe, reducing the probability of food falling into the water, which is beneficial to improving the utilization rate of food and preventing food from falling into the water and making the water turbid. At the same time, the actions of animals such as jumping fish and crabs competing for food also greatly enhance the fun of watching and interacting with the present invention.

[0034] As an optional embodiment, the ecological planting pool 2 is equipped with a plant light 23 for supplemental lighting for plant growth. Since the present invention is typically placed indoors, the growth of plants in the ecological planting pool 2 is easily affected by insufficient light. The plant light 23 facilitates the normal growth of the plants. The plant light 23 is powered by either 220V mains electricity converted to low voltage or directly by solar panels. The choice can be made as needed to ensure the normal operation of the plant light 23.

[0035] As an optional embodiment, the animals cultured in the shallow water tank 1 are at least one of jumping fish, crabs, and stone sulphur. These animals have high breeding value and ornamental value and are suitable for breeding in shallow water. Of course, other animals active in the tidal flat area can also be selected according to breeding or ornamental needs, which will not be repeated here.

[0036] The embodiment is only a special example and does not indicate that the present invention is implemented in such a way.

[0037] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes or equivalent substitutions may be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Furthermore, under the guidance of the present invention, these features and embodiments may be modified to suit specific circumstances and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are intended to be protected by the present invention.
