Claims36
A process for conditioning water in a contained environment for aquatic life, the process comprising the step of:
- adding a sufficient amount of catholyte to the water to promote the health of the aquatic life wherein the total amount of catholyte in the water ranges from about 1 to about 20 percent of the total volume of the water in the contained environment.
A process for conditioning water in a contained environment for aquatic life, the process comprising the steps of:
- removing a portion of the water from the contained environment and placing the removed water in a separate environment, to thereby preserve the beneficial bacteria in the removed water;
- adding a sufficient amount of anolyte to the water in the contained environment to substantially eliminate harmful bacteria in the water, to thereby promote the health of the aquatic life;
- and
- adding the removed water back to the controlled environment, after anolyte decomposes to an inactive state.
