1. What is the suitable water temperature for breeding parrot fish?
Although parrot fish have strong adaptability to water temperature and can move freely in water temperature of 20℃ to 30℃, parrot fish are tropical fish, so pet owners keep them The water temperature is best controlled between 25°C and 30°C (which can be controlled by a heating rod), because this temperature can make the parrot fish have the best appetite and activity, and at the same time, its growth rate is also the fastest.
In addition, pet owners should also be careful not to allow the water temperature to be too high, because once the water temperature is high, the appetite and activity of the parrot fish will be greatly reduced, and the required oxygen will also be greatly increased. Therefore, it is best for pet owners to use a heating rod to keep the water temperature of the fish tank
in a stable range. At the same time, the temperature difference between each water change should not exceed 2 °C, otherwise the parrot fish may experience a stress response.
Second, how to raise parrot fish to grow well?
1. Environmental stability: If pet owners want to keep parrot fish well, they must first ensure the stability of their living environment, especially the water quality and water temperature, and try not to have too much fluctuation. If conditions permit, you can also place filters and heating rods in the fish tank to keep the water temperature constant and the water clean.
2. Sufficient oxygen: Due to the growth defect of parrot fish, their demand for oxygen will be relatively high, so it is best for pet owners to install an oxygen pump to ensure sufficient dissolved oxygen in the water. If there are many parrot fish, it is recommended that the oxygen pump be turned on for 24 hours.
3. Sufficient food: Parrot fish have a mixed diet and can eat almost everything, so pet owners need to ensure that parrot fish have sufficient food so that they can grow better.
4. Lighting time: Because sunlight can help parrot fish synthesize pigments, making their colors more vivid, and can also improve their metabolic rate, pet owners also need to provide parrot fish with a certain amount of light Time, about 25-3 hours a day.
