ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing the interior surfaces of aquariums with debris-repellant properties, comprising the irradiation of a surface by far infrared light, thereby inducing an electron deficiency upon the surface. Dirt particles are repelled by the positively charged surface, since most dust particles have positively charged centers. The negatively charged periphery of said dust particles adhere to the positively charged surface, but the attractive forces between the surface and the dirt particles are too weak to overcome gravitational forces which cause the particles to fall off or float away from the surface. In addition, the electron deficiency on the inner surface of the aquarium drives a surface reaction which produces oxygen. This evolving of gas from the inner surface further repels the adherence of debris particles and provides a healthy atmosphere for fish dwelling in the aquarium. Further, specially prepared water used in conjunction with the tank further contributes to the debris-repellant properties of the inner surface of the aquarium.
