Description

A land and water tidal tank

[0001] The present application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411548322.X, filed on November 01, 2024, and entitled "A land and water tidal tank", and Chinese Patent Application No. 202422660083.9, filed on November 01, 2024, and entitled "A land and water tidal tank", the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present application relates to the field of fish tanks, in particular to a land and water tidal tank. BACKGROUND

[0003] In the prior art, the land layer and water in the land and water tidal tank are located in the same area. When the water in the land and water tidal tank rises, the water level rises, the land layer is submerged by water, and the internal air is discharged; when the water in the land and water tidal tank recedes, the land layer is exposed to the water surface, the internal accumulated water is discharged, and air enters the land layer again. In order to maintain good air permeability of the land layer, which is beneficial to the growth of intertidal zone organisms, the land layer should be exposed to the water surface as much as possible during the ebb tide, but in this way, the water level in the tank needs to be lowered to a very low position, which is not conducive to the growth of aquatic organisms. Therefore, how to ensure that the land layer can be fully exposed to the water surface when the land and water tidal tank is in a low tide position, while ensuring that there is still a high water level in the land and water tidal tank, so as to take into account the growth of intertidal zone organisms and aquatic organisms, is a key problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0036] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the low tide level of the water area is determined by the overflow height of the overflow device. A higher overflow height ensures a higher low tide level. Therefore, the water area can maintain a relatively high water level even at low tide to meet the water needs of aquatic organisms. On the other hand, the accumulated water within the land area can be drained into the bottom tank through the third drainpipe, thus exposing the entire terrestrial layer and forming a relatively deep and breathable terrestrial layer to meet the needs of intertidal organisms. While the tidal range in the water area is only a few centimeters, the thickness of the breathable terrestrial layer in the land area can reach tens of centimeters, meeting the needs of most intertidal burrowing organisms.

[0037] The tidal tank of this invention maintains a relatively high water level even at low tide, while the land area has a deep terrestrial layer. This satisfies the needs of intertidal organisms for terrestrial depth and the water requirements of aquatic organisms, thus promoting the growth of intertidal organisms. Furthermore, the deep terrestrial layer allows intertidal burrowing organisms to dig deeper burrows, which is beneficial for their survival and enhances the aesthetic appeal.

Detailed Implementation

[0060] In view of this, the core of the present invention is to design a tidal tank that can ensure a deep and well-aerated terrestrial layer when the tidal tank is at low tide, while also ensuring a high water level inside the tidal tank, thereby facilitating the growth of intertidal organisms and aquatic organisms.

[0061] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0062] This invention discloses an aquatic tidal tank. Please refer to Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of the aquatic tidal tank in an empty state according to a specific embodiment of this invention. The aquatic tidal tank includes a main tank 1 and a bottom tank 2. Specifically, it also includes a partition plate 103, an overflow device, a drainage area 104, a first drainage pipe 105, a second drainage pipe 106, a third drainage pipe 112, a first water inlet pipe 107, and a water pump 204.

[0063] The partition plate 103 can be a glass plate, connected to the front and rear side plates and the bottom plate of the main cylinder 1, with no gaps at the connection, thereby dividing the main cylinder 1 into a land area 102 and a water area 101. The main cylinder 1 has at least one partition plate 103. As shown in Figures 1-13, in an embodiment where the main cylinder 1 has one partition plate 103, the main cylinder 1 is divided into a land area 102 and a water area 101. As shown in Figure 18, in an embodiment where the main cylinder 1 has two partition plates 103, the main cylinder 1 is divided into two land areas 102 and a water area 101, with the two land areas 102 located on either side of the water area 101. In the embodiment where the main cylinder 1 has two partition plates 103, the two land areas 102 and the water area 101 can be arranged in a straight line, an L-shape, or a T-shape, etc.

[0064] Water in water zone 101 can overflow into land zone 102 through partition plate 103. The overflow height of partition plate 103 is lower than the high tide level of water zone 101, but higher than the low tide level of water zone 101.

[0065] An overflow device is used to allow water in water zone 101 to overflow into drainage zone 104. Optionally, the height of the overflow device is level with the low tide level. A first drain pipe 105 and a second drain pipe 106 are both located in drainage zone 104. The inlet of the first drain pipe 105 is higher than the inlet of the second drain pipe 106, and the inlet of the second drain pipe 106 is not higher than the overflow height of the overflow device. This allows water entering drainage zone 104 to be discharged through the second drain pipe 106 when the water level in water zone 101 reaches the low tide level. The inlet height of the first drain pipe 105 is level with the high tide level, allowing water entering drainage zone 104 to be discharged through both the second drain pipe 106 and the first drain pipe 105 when the water level in water zone 101 reaches the high tide level.

[0066] The inlet of the third drain pipe 112 is connected to the land area 102 and is used to drain water from the land area 102. The outlets of the first drain pipe 105, the second drain pipe 106, and the third drain pipe 112 are all connected to the bottom cylinder 2. An electric ball valve 108 is installed on the second drain pipe 106.

[0067] A water pump 204 is installed inside the bottom cylinder 2. The outlet of the water pump 204 is connected to the inlet of the first water supply pipe 107, and the outlet of the first water supply pipe 107 is connected to the water zone 101. The water pump 204 delivers water from the bottom cylinder 2 into the water zone 101 through the first water supply pipe 107.

[0068] If water zone 101 in the tidal tank is at high tide, then the electric ball valve 108 opens, the second drain pipe 106 begins to drain water, water zone 101 begins to recede, and the water level in water zone 101 begins to drop. When the water level in water zone 101 is lower than the first drain pipe 105, only the second drain pipe 106 drains water. After that, the water flow from the first water inlet pipe 107 and the water flow from the second drain pipe 106 reach equilibrium, and water zone 101 is at low tide.

[0069] The overflow height of the partition plate 103 is higher than the low tide level of water zone 101 but lower than the high tide level of water zone 101. When the water level in water zone 101 exceeds the overflow height of the partition plate 103, the water in water zone 101 overflows into land zone 102 through the partition plate 103, submerging the land layer 117 in land zone 102. During low tide in water zone 101, when the water level in water zone 101 falls below the overflow height of the partition plate 103, the water in water zone 101 no longer flows into land zone 102. Since the third drain pipe 112 remains unobstructed, water in land zone 102 continuously enters the sump 2 through the third drain pipe 112. Given enough time, the accumulated water in land zone 102 can be completely drained, thus exposing the entire land layer 117.

[0070] The low tide level of water zone 101 is determined by the overflow height of the overflow device. A higher overflow height results in a higher low tide level in water zone 101. Therefore, water zone 101 can maintain a relatively high water level even at low tide to meet the water needs of aquatic organisms. On the other hand, the water inside land zone 102 can be drained to the bottom tank 2 through the third drain pipe 112. This exposes the entire land layer 117 within land zone 102, creating a deep and well-aerated land layer to meet the needs of intertidal organisms. While the rise and fall of water zone 101 may only be a few centimeters, the thickness of the land layer 117 in land zone 102 can reach tens of centimeters, sufficient to meet the needs of most intertidal burrowing organisms.

[0071] The tidal tank of this invention features a high water level in the water zone 101 during low tide and a high land layer 117 in the land zone 102. This satisfies the water volume requirements of aquatic organisms and the land layer 117 requirements of intertidal organisms, thus promoting the growth of both aquatic and intertidal organisms. Furthermore, the high land layer 117 allows intertidal burrowing organisms to dig deeper burrows, which is beneficial for their survival and enhances the aesthetic appeal.

[0072] The electric ball valve 108 is controlled by a timer switch and can be either a normally open type (opening when power is off and closing when power is on) or a normally closed type (opening when power is on and closing when power is off). The difference in their use lies in the setting of the timer switch: with a normally open type, the tide rises when the timer switch is on and falls when power is off; with a normally closed type, the opposite is true. The following description uses the normally open type electric ball valve 108 as an example.

[0073] Initial stage of high tide in water zone 101: Figure 6 shows a schematic diagram of the land-water tidal tank when water zone 101 is at low tide. In Figure 6, the timer switch is de-energized, so the normally open electric ball valve 108 is open, and water zone 101 remains at low tide. When the timer switch is energized, the electric ball valve 108 closes, and water flow to water zone 101 stops, but water flow through the first inlet pipe 107 continues as normal. Therefore, the water level in water zone 101 rises, and the water level in the bottom tank 2 drops, as shown in Figure 2, which is a schematic diagram of the land-water tidal tank during the initial stage of high tide.

[0074] Final stage of high tide in water zone 101: Please refer to Figure 3, which is a schematic diagram of the water-land tidal tank during the final stage of high tide. As the tide rises in water zone 101, when the water level in water zone 101 exceeds the overflow height of the partition plate 103, the water in water zone 101 overflows into land zone 102, gradually submerging the surface of the land layer 117 and gradually seeping downwards. Because the seepage rate is very slow, the inflow rate of land zone 102 exceeds the seepage rate, and the water level in land zone 102 gradually rises. After the water level in land zone 102 rises, the seepage rate will also accelerate, eventually bringing the inflow rate and seepage rate of land zone 102 into equilibrium, and maintaining the water level in land zone 102 at a certain height. On the other hand, in water zone 101, as the water level rises, after the water level exceeds the inlet of the first drain pipe 105, water will flow out through the first drain pipe 105. Then, the water flow from the first water supply pipe 107 and the water flow from the first drain pipe 105 gradually reach equilibrium, and water zone 101 reaches its high tide level.

[0075] Initial stage of low tide in water zone 101: When the timer switch is de-energized, the electric ball valve 108 opens and the second drain pipe 106 is connected, so the water flow rate increases significantly. The water level in water zone 101 of the main cylinder 1 begins to drop and the water level in the bottom cylinder 2 begins to rise. Please refer to Figure 4, which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the land-water tidal tank in the initial stage of low tide.

[0076] When the water level in water zone 101 drops below the overflow height of partition plate 103, water zone 101 stops supplying water to land zone 102, and the water level in land zone 102 begins to drop. Since the rate of drop in the water level in land zone 102 is much lower than that in water zone 101, when the water level in water zone 101 drops to the low tide level, the water level in land zone 102 only drops a small portion. However, the water level in land zone 102 will continue to drop for a period of time, exposing the land layer 117. Eventually, the entire land layer 117 will fully drain the internal water. Please refer to Figure 5, which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the water-land tidal tank in the final stage of the receding tide.

[0077] As the water level in water zone 101 drops, it falls below the inlet of the first drain pipe 105. The first drain pipe 105 then stops discharging water. Subsequently, the water flow from the second drain pipe 106 gradually reaches equilibrium with the water flow from the first inlet pipe 107, and water zone 101 remains at a low tide level. Please refer to Figure 6, which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the tidal tank when water zone 101 is at a low tide level.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 1. The first drain pipe 105, the second drain pipe 106, and the third drain pipe 112 share a common main outlet. This main outlet should be appropriately enlarged to prevent interference between the water flowing from the first drain pipe 105, the second drain pipe 106, and the third drain pipe 112, thus reducing drainage noise. A filter bag can be placed over the main outlet to filter the water that is about to enter the bottom tank 2.

[0079] The inlet of the first drain pipe 105 determines the water level height of water zone 101 at high tide. A regulating valve is installed on the first drain pipe 105. Adjusting the regulating valve to an appropriate range can reduce the noise of the drain pipe.

[0080] The second drain pipe 106 drains water normally during low tide and receding tide in water area 101. A regulating valve is installed on the second drain pipe 106 to reduce the noise of the second drain pipe 106.

[0081] Pump 204 is preferably a variable frequency pump with adjustable flow rate.

[0082] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the water area 101 overflows into the lower water area 104 via backpack overflow. Figures 1-6 all depict backpack overflow. The specific structure is as follows: a backpack is provided on the outside of a main cylinder side plate 118 of the main cylinder 1. The backpack specifically includes a backpack side plate 109 and a backpack bottom plate 110. The backpack side plate 109 includes a first side plate opposite to the main cylinder side plate 118, a front side plate, and a rear side plate located between the first side plate and the main cylinder side plate 118. The front and rear side plates are opposite each other, and the front, rear, and first side plates form a U-shaped structure. The portions of the main cylinder side plate 118 and the backpack side plate 109, the backpack side plate 109, and the backpack bottom plate 110 together form the lower water area 104. In this embodiment, the lower water area 104 is located outside the water area 101, thus ensuring that the water area 101 has sufficient space.

[0083] As described above, the water in water area 101 overflows to the drainage area 104 through the overflow device. In this embodiment, the overflow device specifically includes a fish-blocking comb 115 and a notch 1181 opened on the main cylinder side plate 118. The notch 1181 corresponds to and is connected to the upper end of the backpack. As shown in Figure 20, the main cylinder side plate 118 only has the notch 1181 at the position corresponding to the backpack. After the notch 1181 is set, the height of the position of the main cylinder side plate 118 with the notch 1181 is lower than the height of the position of the main cylinder side plate 118 without the notch 1181. The fish-blocking comb 115 is set on the inner side of the main cylinder side plate 118, and the fish-blocking comb 115 and the main cylinder side plate 118 form a first overflow channel. The lower and upper parts of the fish-blocking comb 115 are respectively provided with first fish-blocking holes, and the first fish-blocking holes are connected to the water area 101 and the first overflow channel. The first overflow channel connects to the space at the top of the main cylinder side plate 118 and the backpack, or in other words, to the drainage area 104.

[0084] When water is drained through the second drain pipe 106, the water flows as follows: the water in the water area 101 flows into the first overflow channel through the first fish-blocking holes at the top and bottom of the fish-blocking comb 115, and the water in the first overflow channel overflows into the backpack through the top surface of the main tank side plate 118, and then flows into the bottom tank 2 through the second drain pipe 106.

[0085] The first water inlet pipe 107 can be located outside or inside the backpack. In an embodiment where the first water inlet pipe 107 is located inside the backpack, the first water inlet pipe 107 passes through the backpack bottom plate 110 and extends upwards, eventually leading to the water area 101. To save space, the first water inlet pipe 107, the first water outlet pipe 105, and the second water outlet pipe 106 are arranged parallel to the main tank side plate 118. In this specific embodiment, the backpack bottom plate 110 should be raised as high as possible to reduce the water capacity of the backpack area. When the water area 101 is at low tide, the water volume in the backpack area is very small, while during high tide, the water level in the backpack area also rises. If the water capacity of the backpack area is large, it will increase the amount of water required by the water area 101 during high tide, thus requiring an increase in the water storage capacity of the bottom tank 2.

[0086] In the embodiment where the drainage area 104 is a water backpack, the first drainage pipe 105 and the second drainage pipe 106 can be two separate pipes, as shown in Figure 1. The first drainage pipe 105 and the second drainage pipe 106 are arranged side by side, or the first drainage pipe 105 and the second drainage pipe 106 can be connected to each other. Specifically, the second drainage pipe 106 is sleeved outside the first drainage pipe 105.

[0087] In another specific embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 7. Figure 7 is a structural schematic diagram of the drain area 104 located within the water area 101 and the drain area 104 being an outer pipe 122. A first drain pipe 105 and a second drain pipe 106 are provided inside the outer pipe 122. The outer pipe 122, the first drain pipe 105, and the second drain pipe 106 constitute a triple overflow drain pipe. The top of the outer pipe 122 has a cap, and the upper and lower parts of the outer pipe 122 are respectively provided with second fish-blocking holes. Water in the water supply area 101 flows into the drain area 104 through the second fish-blocking holes, while preventing fish in the water area 101 from entering the drain area 104. The second drain pipe 106 is sleeved outside the first drain pipe 105.

[0088] When the tide recedes in water zone 101, and the water level is below the inlet of the first drain pipe 105, water flows only through the second drain pipe 106. The flow process is as follows: water in water zone 101 enters the space between the outer pipe 122 and the second drain pipe 106 through the second fish-blocking hole. Then, the water overflows through the inlet of the second drain pipe 106 into the space between the second drain pipe 106 and the first drain pipe 105, and finally flows into the bottom tank 2. When the tide rises in water zone 101, the electric ball valve 108 is closed, and the second drain pipe 106 stops flowing water. At this time, the first drain pipe 105 also stops flowing water because its inlet is above the water level. Therefore, only the first water inlet pipe 107 is supplying water to water zone 101, and thus water zone 101 begins to rise. When the water level in water zone 101 is higher than the inlet of the first drain pipe 105, the first drain pipe 105 starts to discharge water. Then, the water supply from the first water supply pipe 107 and the water discharge from the first drain pipe 105 gradually reach equilibrium, and water zone 101 reaches its high tide level.

[0089] In an embodiment where the drainage area 104 is located within the water area 101 and the drainage area 104 is the outer pipe 122, only one inner pipe 123 can be installed inside the outer pipe 122 to form a double overflow pipe structure. The diameter of the double overflow pipe is smaller than that of the triple overflow pipe, which is beneficial to improving the aesthetics of the aquatic-terrestrial tidal tank. Fish-blocking combs are installed above and below the outer pipe 122 of the double overflow pipe, and the inner pipe 123 is the drainage pipe. The drainage pipe is connected to the bottom tank 2 through the first drain pipe and the second drain pipe. Valves are installed on both the first drain pipe and the second drain pipe. When both valves are open, water from the drain pipe enters the bottom cylinder 2 simultaneously through the first and second drain pipes, resulting in a large drain flow rate and maintaining water zone 101 at a low tide level. When one of the valves in the first and second drain pipes is closed, water from the drain pipe can only enter the bottom cylinder 2 through the other of the first and second drain pipes. At this time, the drain flow rate decreases, and the water level in water zone 101 rises. The rise in the water level in water zone 101 leads to an increase in overflow pressure, causing the drain flow rate to gradually increase. At the same time, due to the increase in the pump head, the inflow rate gradually decreases. When the water level in water zone 101 rises to a certain level, the inflow and outflow rates reach equilibrium, and the water level in water zone 101 stops rising and remains at a high tide level.

[0090] The first drain pipe and the second drain pipe are connected to the bottom cylinder 2 through the main drain pipe. At least one of the first drain pipe, the second drain pipe and the main drain pipe is equipped with a valve to reduce the noise of water flow during low tide.

[0091] Please refer to Figures 8-10. Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the tidal tank in an empty state when the land layer 117 is a sandy beach. Figure 9 is a schematic diagram of the tidal tank at low tide when the land layer 117 is a sandy beach. Figure 10 is a schematic diagram of the tidal tank at high tide when the land layer 117 is a sandy beach. If the land layer 117 of land area 102 is only sandy beach and does not contain tidal mud, then there is no need to consider the problem of water containing tidal mud flowing into water area 101 through the partition plate 103 and polluting water area 101. Therefore, the partition plate 103 can be a flat plate at this time. During high tide, the water level in water area 101 will exceed the partition plate 103, directly submerging land area 102, and the water level can rise quite high. The inlet of the first drain pipe 105 should also be raised accordingly to match the higher tide level. When the water level in water zone 101 rises to a sufficient height, aquatic fish and other organisms in water zone 101 will also swim to land zone 102 with the tide, thus increasing the ornamental value of the tidal aquarium.

[0092] The sand used in the land area 102 should be slightly coarser, especially the surface layer. Fine sand should not be used, as it will float on the water due to surface tension during high tide. If the land layer 117 of the land area 102 is only sand, then fiddler crabs cannot be raised, but sand crabs and other beach creatures can be raised, and mangroves can also be planted.

[0093] Please refer to Figure 9. At low tide, the water level in water zone 101 is lower than the height of the partition plate 103, and water in water zone 101 no longer flows into land zone 102. At the same time, the water supply from the first water inlet pipe 107 and the water discharge from the second water outlet pipe 106 reach a balance.

[0094] Please refer to Figure 10. At high tide, the water in water zone 101 merges with the water in land zone 102. The water flow from the first water inlet pipe 107 is balanced with the water flow from the first water outlet pipe 105.

[0095] The land layer 117 can be formed solely of sand, or it can be formed by a mixture of sand and tidal flat mud. In one specific embodiment, referring to Figure 2, the lower layer of the land layer 117 is cleaned sand, and the upper layer is a mixture of sand and tidal flat mud. A small area in the upper layer can also be covered with pure tidal flat mud to meet the needs of certain intertidal organisms. However, since tidal flat mud has very poor permeability, the area of ​​pure tidal flat mud should not be too large to avoid difficulties in infiltration. In addition, tidal flat mud has a certain viscosity and will only be washed up when the water flow is fast. The water flow infiltrating downwards in the land area 102 is slow and will not wash away the tidal flat mud.

[0096] The surface of the sand or tidal flat in land area 102 contains organic matter (algae, nematodes, organic detritus, etc.) that intertidal organisms can feed on. The algae and nematodes grow and proliferate under conditions of suitable light, sand or tidal mud, and suitable salinity and humidity. The organic detritus mainly comes from plankton and their remains, food debris, and aquatic organism excrement particles in water area 101, which are carried by the water flow to land area 102 during high tide and then remain on the surface of the land layer 117. The light can come from natural sunlight or artificial light sources suitable for the growth of ordinary plants.

[0097] If the land layer 117 is composed of sand and tidal mud, it is necessary to prevent water in water zone 101 from communicating with land zone 102 through the space above the partition plate 103. If the water in land zone 102 and water in water zone 101 become connected, the tidal mud in land zone 102 will flow into water zone 101 with the tide, thereby polluting water zone 101. Therefore, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, the height of the partition plate 103 is limited to be higher than the high tide level of water zone 101, while the overflow height of the partition plate 103 is lower than the height of the partition plate 103.

[0098] Please refer to Figure 11 for details. Figure 11 is a structural schematic diagram of the tidal tank when it is empty. A connecting pipe 120 is installed on the partition plate 103 in Figure 11, and the connecting pipe 120 penetrates the partition plate 103. Water in the water zone 101 can overflow into the land zone 102 through the connecting pipe 120. The height of the connecting pipe 120 is the overflow height from the water zone 101 to the land zone 102. Therefore, the connecting pipe 120 is below the high tide level of the water zone 101 and above the low tide level of the water zone 101. The flow cross-section of the connecting pipe 120 is adjustable so that the inflow rate into the land zone 102 is greater than the outflow rate into the land zone 102, thereby raising the water level in the land zone 102 to submerge the land layer 117. The flow cross-section of the connecting pipe 120 determines the high tide level of the land zone 102. The high tide level of the land zone 102 is lower than the connecting pipe 120. Specifically, a regulating valve can be installed inside the connecting pipe 120 to adjust the opening of the connecting pipe 120. If the regulating valve's pipe is long, it can be directly used as a connecting pipe 120 to pass through the partition plate 103. A fish-blocking net needs to be installed at the opening of the connecting pipe 120 facing the water area 101 to prevent fish and other organisms from entering the water area 101.

[0099] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 6. A tidal pool 116 is provided on the upper surface of the terrestrial layer 117 of the land area 102, located below the outlet of the connecting pipe 120. The tidal pool 116 can specifically be a small dish. The main function of the tidal pool 116 is to moderate the water flow and prevent the water flowing from the connecting pipe 120 from directly impacting the mudflat sediment. The water flowing from the outlet of the connecting pipe 120 first flows into the tidal pool 116, and then overflows from the tidal pool 116 to the surface of the terrestrial layer 117. Furthermore, organisms in the land area 102 can enter the tidal pool 116 to soak. The inner wall of the tidal pool 116 should be relatively rough. This rough inner wall can be achieved by providing an anti-slip mesh plate, or by providing grooves and / or protrusions on the inner wall to facilitate organisms climbing out of the tidal pool and returning to the land area 102. After the mudflat silt is laid, the tidal pool 116 is placed directly below the outlet of the connecting pipe 120. To improve the stability of the tidal pool 116, its bottom can be submerged within the land layer 117. This simultaneously reduces the distance between the opening of the tidal pool 116 and the upper surface of the land layer 117, thereby further mitigating the impact of water flow on the land layer 117 and facilitating the entry of various organisms from the land area 102 into the tidal pool 116.

[0100] Some organisms in the tidal aquarium, such as mudskippers, frequently move back and forth between the land area 102 and the water area 101. If mudskippers directly enter the water area 101 from the land area 102, the mud and sand they carry will be carried into the water area 101, thus polluting it. Therefore, this invention specifically designs a water tank 121. Referring to Figure 1: The partition plate 103 includes a partition plate body 1031 and a water tank 121 disposed on the side of the partition plate body 1031 facing away from the water area 101. The side of the water tank 121 closest to the water area 101 is connected to the water area 101, so water from the water area 101 can enter the water tank 121. Like the partition plate 103, the water tank 121 is connected to the front and rear side plates of the main tank 1. The side of the water tank 121 away from the water area 101 has a first side plate 1032. The top surface of the first side plate 1032 is higher than the high tide level of the water area 101. A connecting pipe 120 is installed on the side plate 1032 of the first tank. When organisms from the land area 102 enter the water area 101, they will first pass through the water tank 121. As they pass through the water tank 121, the water in the water tank 121 will cause the mud and sand on the organisms to fall off, thus preventing the organisms from polluting the water area 101 after entering it. The mud and sand falling off the organisms will settle to the bottom of the water tank 121.

[0101] On the side of the water tank 121 closest to the water area 101, a second side plate of the water tank 121 is formed on the upper part of the partition plate body 1031. The top surface of the second side plate is lower than the low tide level of the water area 101. In this way, the water in the water tank 121 and the water area 101 are connected regardless of whether the water area 101 is at high tide or low tide, which facilitates the flow of water between the water tank 121 and the water area 101 and makes it easier to remove silt from the water tank 121.

[0102] Please refer to Figure 12, which is a schematic diagram of the tidal tank with the partition plate 103 arranged at an angle. The partition plate 103 gradually slopes towards the land area 102 from bottom to top, thus resembling the effect of a natural coastline. In addition, an anti-slip mesh plate 119 is provided on the side of the partition plate 103 closest to the water area 101. Organisms in the water area 101, such as crabs, crawl along the anti-slip mesh plate 119 into the land area 102.

[0103] Please refer to Figures 1-11, which show an embodiment where the partition plate 103 is arranged vertically. The partition plate 103 is not tilted towards the landing area 102. As shown in Figure 1, the bottom wall of the main cylinder 1 is arranged horizontally, and the partition plate 103 is perpendicular to the bottom wall of the main cylinder 1.

[0104] Please refer to Figure 1. To prevent sand from land area 102 from entering the bottom tank 2 through the third drain pipe 112, a filter layer is provided at the bottom of land area 102 in a specific embodiment of the present invention. Land layer 117 is located above the filter layer. The filter layer blocks sand while allowing water flow. To improve drainage, a bottom filter rack 114 is provided below the filter layer in this embodiment. The bottom filter rack 114 is a mesh rack with supporting legs, which serves to support the filter layer and form a water flow space below it, facilitating water seepage from land layer 117 into the water flow space. Water seeping from land layer 117 flows into the water flow space after being filtered by the filter layer, and then flows into the bottom tank 2 through the third drain pipe 112.

[0105] Please refer to Figure 1. The filter layer is specifically nano-brick 113. Nano-brick is an aquarium filter material originally used for biological filtration in fish tanks. In this embodiment, nano-brick 113 is arranged below the mud and sand layer in the land area 102. Its function is to intercept and filter particulate matter such as sand in the water, while allowing water and mud to pass through.

[0106] Nano brick 113 can be a single, complete nano brick, or it can be a combination device made up of multiple small nano bricks. When assembling, care should be taken to seal the gaps on the upper surface with landscaping mud, cement, or other materials, or to seal them with sealing rings or sealing strips to prevent sand from falling in.

[0107] A sealing ring is installed in the gap between the nano-brick 113 and the cylinder wall of the land area 102 to prevent sand from falling into the water flow space.

[0108] In another specific embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 13, the filter layer is a filter screen 123. The filter screen 123 is a rigid filter screen resistant to seawater corrosion, such as a titanium mesh. The pore size of the filter screen 123 is preferably large enough to intercept sand while allowing water and mud to pass through.

[0109] Please refer to Figure 9. Land area 102 is covered only with clean sand, designated as a beach. Since sand's water retention is inferior to that of tidal flat silt, the beach in land area 102 will be relatively dry after low tide. To ensure beach moisture, this specific embodiment of the invention incorporates the following design: Nano-brick protrusions are provided below nano-bricks 113, protruding into the water flow space to a height of about half its height. When the tide recedes in land area 102, water in the water flow space can seep upwards into the beach through the nano-brick protrusions and nano-bricks 113, thus maintaining beach moisture.

[0110] The above scheme can also be used when the land area is a tidal basin of mudflats and silt.

[0111] A regulating valve is installed on the third drain pipe 112 to adjust the water level in the flow space. When the valve opening is increased, the water level in the flow space drops, and the nano-brick protrusions cannot contact the water surface, thus stopping water absorption. When the valve opening is decreased, the water level in the flow space rises, and the nano-brick protrusions can contact the water surface, allowing water to be absorbed upwards. Therefore, by adjusting the regulating valve, the absorption of water through seepage and the absorption of water without seepage can be controlled. This regulating valve also helps to reduce the drainage noise of the third drain pipe 112.

[0112] Please refer to Figure 1. The water supply pipe includes a first water supply pipe 107 and a second water supply pipe 111. The inlet of the second water supply pipe 111 is connected to the outlet of the water pump 204. The outlet of the second water supply pipe 111 is located within the water flow space, and a branch pipe for changing the water flow direction is provided at the outlet of the second water supply pipe 111. This branch pipe is located within the water flow space to prevent water flow from impacting the filter layer. The branch pipe at the outlet of the second water supply pipe 111 can be horizontal or downward relative to the horizontal direction. As shown in Figure 1, the outlet of the second water supply pipe 111 is connected to the middle of the branch pipe, and both ends of the branch pipe can drain water along its length.

[0113] A regulating valve is installed on the second water inlet pipe 111 and the first water inlet pipe 107 respectively. Water from the water pump 204 can enter the water flow space through the second water inlet pipe 111 to flush the bottom of the filter layer, thereby preventing the filter layer from becoming clogged.

[0114] The water output from pump 204 is simultaneously sent to the first water inlet pipe 107 and the second water inlet pipe 111. The regulating valves on the first water inlet pipe 107 and the second water inlet pipe 111 are used to regulate the flow rate in the first water inlet pipe 107 and the second water inlet pipe 111.

[0115] To prevent water in water zone 101 from flowing back into bottom cylinder 2 during a power outage, an anti-siphon hole can be installed on the first water inlet pipe 107, or a check valve can be installed in the first water inlet pipe 107.

[0116] The tidal tank also includes a spray device 3, which includes at least one nozzle 302 and a spray pipe 301 connected to the nozzle 302. The inlet of the spray pipe 301 is connected to a fresh water source and is used to clean the inner wall of the main tank 1.

[0117] In an embodiment where the spray device 3 has a nozzle 302, the nozzle is positioned above the middle of the main cylinder, enabling simultaneous spraying of both the land area and the water area.

[0118] In an embodiment where the spray device 3 has at least two nozzles 302, some nozzles are located above the land area and some nozzles are located above the water area.

[0119] Freshwater can come from a storage container, pumped by a pump; or from a tap water pipe equipped with a water purification system, controlled by a solenoid valve. Nozzle 302 is a wide-angle type to spray water horizontally in all directions as much as possible during spraying. When the water level in water zone 101 of the main tank 1 drops to low tide, the spray device 3 is activated to wash the seawater adhering to the tank wall into the water, preventing salt stains from remaining after the seawater evaporates. The spraying should be done after the water level in water zone 101 drops to low tide and before the seawater adhering to the tank wall evaporates; this timing is controlled by a timer switch. The main function of the spray device 3 is to keep the inner wall of the main tank 1 clean, which is beneficial for its aesthetics.

[0120] Please refer to Figures 14 and 15. Figure 14 shows the water level of the sump tank 2 in water area 101 at low tide. Figure 15 shows the water level of the sump tank 2 in water area 101 at high tide. The sump tank 2 of the tidal aquarium in this invention is structurally similar to the sump tank 2 of a conventional bottom-filtered aquarium. Its interior is divided into several functional compartments 205, with a partition plate group between each pair of adjacent functional compartments 205. The partition plate group includes a baffle plate 202 and an overflow plate 203 arranged opposite each other. The baffle plate 202 guides the water flow, allowing it to pass through each functional compartment 205. The overflow plate 203 causes water in one functional compartment 205 to overflow into the next functional compartment 205. If the water level in the sump tank 2 exceeds the height of the baffle plate 202, the water will pass directly over the baffle plate 202, thus affecting the filtration effect of the sump tank 2. Therefore, the height of the baffle plate 202 determines the maximum water level of the sump tank 2. Overflow plate 203 limits the minimum water level of the functional compartment 205 in front of it. Since the second functional compartment 205 in the sump 2, following the water flow direction, is usually the protein skimmer compartment (where the protein skimmer is placed), it needs to maintain a stable water level. During high tide in the main tank 1's water zone 101, the water volume in the sump 2 decreases; during low tide, the water volume in the sump 2 increases. To ensure a stable water level in the protein skimmer compartment during these changes, the overflow plates 203 between the first two compartments—that is, the overflow plates 203 upstream and downstream of the protein skimmer compartment—need to be appropriately raised. However, the overflow plates 203 should still be lower than the baffle plate 202. Subsequent overflow plates 203 should be appropriately lowered. Thus, water volume changes in the sump 2 are concentrated in the functional compartment 205 after the protein skimmer compartment. The heights of the two overflow plates 203 located upstream and downstream of the egg compartment can be equal, or the height of the overflow plate 203 located upstream of the egg compartment can be 0cm-3cm higher than the height of the overflow plate 203 located downstream of the egg compartment.

[0121] Please refer to Figures 16 and 17. Figure 16 shows the water level of sump 2 during low tide in water zone 101. Figure 17 shows the water level of sump 2 during high tide in water zone 101. If the land area 102 of the main tank 1 is set as a sandy beach, and the tidal range of water zone 101 is large, the water volume in sump 2 will change significantly. In this case, the height of the baffle 202 of sump 2 is basically the same as that of the baffle of a conventional bottom-filter aquarium, while the height of the overflow plate 203 is appropriately reduced, and it decreases further down along the water flow direction, forming a stepped shape. In this way, even if the water volume in sump 2 changes significantly, the baffle 202 and the overflow plate 203 can still guide the water flow normally. At this time, the water volume in all functional compartments 205 of sump 2 can change, and the change is greater towards the back.
