When raising parrot fish, it is better to control the water temperature at 25-30°C. The owner needs to control the water temperature well when raising parrot fish.
1. Water temperature: Parrot fish have strong temperature compliance and can survive freely in water temperatures of 20-30°C. At the same time, parrot fish are very sensitive to temperature. When the water temperature changes drastically in low water temperature, it is prone to stress reactions, causing the body color to become dim and lose its beautiful luster, and even black stripes or patterns may appear. During the breeding process, it is best to maintain the water temperature at 21-35 degrees, with 25-30 degrees Celsius being the best. In addition, the water temperature difference before and after frequent water changes should not exceed 0.5°C.
2. Change water: Parrot fish prefer new water and should try to change 1/5 of the new water every day. If the water quality is weakly acidic and cool, there is no need to change the water frequently (new fish will change color when entering the tank due to sudden changes in water quality. The water quality will gradually improve if the environment and design are suitable).
3. Feeding: Parrot fish eat a lot, so they may be fed 2 to 3 times a day.
4. Equipment: Due to genetic factors, the respiratory system of parrot fish is not complete enough, and its function is only half of that of other fish, so parrots need much higher melted oxygen in the aquarium. (The water body in which parrot fish is raised must be filled with oxygen). The aquarium is best equipped with biochemical filter cotton, water pump, and oxygen aeration equipment. At the same time, parrot fish are more sensitive to light and need to be provided with strong light in a timely and quantitative manner. After maintaining 1 to 2 hours of strong light every day, you should let it spend the rest of the day in a darker environment.
5. Situation: Parrot fish are less courageous, so it is best to install large aquatic plants, clay pots, and heavy wood in the aquarium for the parrot to hide.
When raising parrot fish, you also need to pay attention to water quality.
