Parrotfish die suddenly for several reasons:
1. Water quality problems: Parrot fish will be in an abnormal state. When changing the water with the owner, they do not dry and filter the impurities in the new water in advance, which leads to the breeding of a large number of bacteria and germs in the water after the new water enters the tank. If the owner does not clean up the impurities in the water for a long time, the water quality of the parrot fish will become worse and worse, so that the parrot fish will suffer from bacteria and eventually die.
Solution: When the owner uses tap water as a replacement for new water, he should dry the tap water for 3-4 days to remove the chlorine in it before putting it into use, and the feeder should clean up the feed residue in the fish tank
in time. , excrement and other garbage to ensure the clean water.
2. Insufficient oxygen: Friends who keep parrot fish should know that parrot fish have only half gills in their natural respiratory system, and their ability to control the flow of water cannot be very good. Good control, so the demand for oxygen will be higher than other fish. If parrot fish are not given enough oxygen, they will die.
Solution: The owner can replace the water in the tank, because there is enough oxygen in the new water for the parrot fish to use; or install an oxygen pump in the fish tank to ensure the oxygen in the water they live in adequate. Conditional can also install a small water pump in the fish tank to increase the oxygen in the water.
3. Too much feeding: The sudden death of parrot fish may also be caused by the owner feeding too much, because the parrot fish does not have the concept of controlling food intake. If the owner feeds too much food at one time, the parrot fish will continue to eat and eventually cause them to eat. Moreover, parrot fish cannot digest more food in a short time, which will also cause them to die.
Solution: When feeding parrot fish, the owner should remember to follow the feeding principle of “small amount and many times, on time and quantitative”, which can not only ensure their adequate nutrition, but also reduce indigestion Case. Note: Young parrot fish need to be fed 2-3 times a day. When they grow up, they can be fed 1-2 times a day.
