Although we cannot avoid the natural death of fish, understanding most of the causes of death of ornamental fish can at least effectively avoid the recurrence of tragedies. Today, we will talk about several common causes of death of ornamental fish.
- Death of fish due to improper feeding
Many novice aquarists are always worried that their fish will starve due to their lack of experience in fish farming, which will lead to overfeeding of fish. In fact, the algae in the water is also one of the food sources of fish, and fish can get nutrients from it, so the fish are almost very small to starve to death. We suggest that aquarists should follow the principle of small numbers of meals to feed the fish, and it is more appropriate to feed them regularly and quantitatively. There are also some aquarists who like to feed live food to fish, although the nutritional value of live food is relatively high, but it itself contains more parasites, so We suggest that aquarists should still carry out a small amount of feeding.
- Death of fish due to water quality
Most ornamental fish have relatively high requirements for water quality, and sometimes too much fish or fish food that the fish has not eaten will lead to a large number of microorganisms or algae in the fish tank, which will affect the water quality. If the fish live in the polluted water for a long time, the fish are naturally prone to illness or even death. So we need to change the water in the fish tank regularly.
- Fish die from various fish diseases
In fact, fish will inevitably encounter various fish diseases during the growth process, but if the fish are not treated in time, it may lead to worsening of the condition and even death. In general, when you find that the fish has abnormal performance in the early stages, such as rubbing the tank or shaking the fins, you need to check to see if the fish is sick. If there is any, it is recommended to try the old three things first: change the water to heat up the salt, of course, you can also choose the We family’s aquarium water purification salt. If there is a serious case, it is still necessary to isolate the sick fish alone and treat it with drug dipping.
- The death of fish due to a battle between fish
Because some ornamental fish have a particularly strong sense of territory, there will be scenes of fish fighting. Like the mini parrot fish is aggressive by nature, often fighting over territory. However, in the case of breeding more, their territorial awareness will gradually weaken. Aquarists should quarantine the heavily bullied fish in a timely manner. However, if the fish that are bitten more seriously are not found in time, they may be life-threatening. At this time, you need this suspension multi-functional isolation box, the small shape will not affect the aesthetics of the fish tank, and it can also play a role in isolating and breeding small fish.
