I. What is the reason for the parrot fish to bite the fish?
1. Lack of space: Parrot fish may bite fish because of competition for territory, because parrot fish have a strong sense of territory. If the fish tank
prepared by the owner is too small or the stocking density is too high, the parrot fish will attack other fish in the tank to obtain living space.
2. Insufficient food: The parrot fish may also have insufficient food when biting the fish, because the parrot fish eats a lot. If the food that the owner feeds them is insufficient or the parrot fish is hungry, they will catch the same kind in the fish tank as food.
3. The water quality is too poor: If the owner has not replaced the water in the fish tank for too long, resulting in poor water quality or turbid water quality in the fish tank, the parrot fish will behave chaotically, and it looks like It’s like they’re biting each other, but usually there’s no injury.
Second, how to prevent parrot fish from biting fish?
1. Increase the activity space: If the owner raises more parrot fish, it is necessary to replace the larger fish tank to give them enough activity space, because the parrot fish needs more than other fish. The space is large, and only when their living space is sufficient will they bite and fight each other less.
2. Keep enough food: The most common reason for parrot fish fighting is to fight for food. It is best for breeders to feed them food regularly and quantitatively, so as to ensure that their food is sufficient and will not snatch each other. It can also avoid indigestion.
3. Keep the water quality clean: The owner should replace the water in the fish tank on time every day, and clean up the fish excrement and remaining food in it to ensure the water quality is clean; at the same time, the water temperature and PH of the water should be controlled. The value is best adjusted to between 6.5-7.0.
