Abstract
A dirty water treating apparatus includes a container having air permeability in which a porous material is placed. Aerobic bacteria are implanted onto the porous material. Dirty water is passed through the porous material while air is forcibly passed through the porous material from an air compressor powered by a solar generator. The dirty water treating apparatus is placed in an aquarium in which water is circulated. The apparatus continuously cleans waters, thereby providing an environment suitable for fish.
