    It is best to feed ornamental fish twice a day, that is, once in the morning and once in the evening, each time about two percent of the total weight of the fish is appropriate, she is the fish can eat the fish food in about 30 minutes, this principle is: feed less, feed frequently, rather less than full.

    Management priorities for aquarium fish:

    1. The focus of spring management is to feed the appropriate amount of bait and prevent and treat diseases. In the spring, the weather is warmer, and the ornamental fish after wintering begin to be active, but their physique is relatively weak, and the amount of bait should be gradually increased. Due to the large climate change, special attention should be paid to heat preservation when it is windy and rainy.

    Bacteria and viruses also multiply rapidly in spring, and fish diseases are most likely to be prevalent. It is easy to hurt the body of the fish by pulling the net to catch fish, so we must pay attention to disease prevention and treatment.

    2. Summer This period is the peak season for ornamental fish, the water temperature is usually above 30, and the fish rarely get sick. If the bait is sufficient and the water is changed frequently, its growth is better than that of other seasons. The increased demand for oxygen and the prevention of hypoxia in water bodies have become the key to feeding.

    Reduce stocking density, change water and sewage frequently, and pay attention to oxygenation, especially in hot and rainy weather. Pay attention to heatstroke prevention and cooling, and cover the water surface of 1 3 1 2 with bamboo curtains, etc., just in case"Scalding the tail"Accidents happen.

    3. Autumn management focuses on adequate feeding. Appropriately increase the proportion of nutrients such as fat and protein in the bait. In late autumn, when the weather gets cooler, the bait should be gradually reduced. At the same time, it is easy to break out of gill rot, white spot disease, skin mildew, etc., so it is necessary to prevent fish diseases.

    4. In winter, the focus of management is to prevent cold and keep warm, and appropriate bait. Heating equipment for greenhouses or aquariums so that the water temperature is generally not lower than 20. Or use the effect of waste hot water in the factory to maintain the appropriate water temperature for normal breeding and reproduction.

    Severe water temperature drops (especially at night) can cause fish to become sick or freeze to death from frostbite.

    <> Tropical Fish As more and more families begin to discover the ornamental value of tropical fish, all aspects of tropical fish are getting more and more attention. One of the most intuitive manifestations is that the types of feed for ornamental fish on the market have begun to become more and more numerous, and various names have also become diverse. So how should owners choose feed?

    The best way to choose is according to the eating habits of aquarium fish, so let's take a look at it with Pochi.

    Generally, there are two main types of feed we choose to feed tropical fish: the first is artificial feed, and the second is live bait. Among them, artificial feed is roughly divided into three types:

    Flake feed, pellet feed, frozen feed. This artificial feed is easy to feed and simple to store. Live baits are generally common such as daphnia, silk earthworms, abundant shrimp (nauplii larvae) and so on.

    The nutritional value of live bait is far better than that of artificially processed feed, but the disadvantage is that it is not easy to store, and live bait is easy to carry parasites, which has certain health hazards for tropical fish.

    In the process of feeding tropical fish, you can choose artificial feed and live bait to be fed. Mainly artificial feed, occasionally improve the diet of tropical fish, prepare some live bait for it. Of course, live bait must be prepared in advance, kept at home for a period of time, so that the live bait can eliminate the dirt in the body, and do a good job of sterilization and disinfection before giving it to tropical fish, so that the danger is greatly reduced.

    Therefore, dry feed is the best way to feed tropical fish.

    It is best to feed fish 1-2 times a day. If the feeding is not frequent enough, the fish is easy to become an old man, and the body shape is not large. If the feeding is too frequent, the fish are prone to enteritis, and the water quality will be polluted by the bait and night pot.

    Usually the feed should be selected first, according to the feeding habits of the fish. Secondly, pay attention to the feeding time, which is generally between 9 am and 4 pm. In addition, if there is bait residue in the water, be sure to clean it up in time.

    First, it is best to feed fish several times a day.

    Fish are fed once or twice a day. Although fish are relatively hungry and can be fed once a few days, if they are not provided with enough nutrients during the growing season, the fish will never grow up and become old fish, which does not look beautiful. Therefore, it is best to feed the fish every day, and feed it until it is full for about seven or eight minutes each time, but it cannot be allowed to eat, and it is easy to suffer from enteritis after eating for a long time, and even lead to its death.

    2. How to feed the fish.

    1. Feed selection: There are many types of fish, and the demand for feed is not the same, some are herbivorous, some are carnivorous, so we must be fed with a suitable feed, so that the fish can eat, and can also ensure adequate nutrition, if the feed is not good, the fish may be picky or even not eat.

    2. Feeding time: The appetite of fish is often related to the water temperature, and they are only interested in eating when the temperature is high, and if it is too cold, it will lead to a decrease in appetite. Therefore, the feeding time must be after 9 o'clock in the morning and before 4 o'clock in the afternoon, which is a short period of appetite.

    3. Residual bait treatment: There will always be some bait that the fish can't eat, which will become residual bait, and the residual bait in the water will lead to the deterioration of water quality, thus affecting the health of the fish. Therefore, when changing the water, it is necessary to drain the dirt such as bait and fish feces from the bottom of the water to maintain the water quality.

    The small fish can be fed 2-3 times a day, because it is developing, and the big fish can decide how many times to feed it depending on its size, but the goldfish still has to be fed less, it can't eat much. In addition, feeding the fish must be eaten within a few minutes, if it exceeds the feed to be scooped up and dried, wait for the next feeding, because the feed will pollute the water quality, and if it has not been repeated, it may not want to eat.

    There is another point to note, different fish eat different feed, and the temperature should not be too low, first of all, the fish is very afraid of cold, and too cold will cause it to lose appetite, or even not eat, but can not feed too much, because the fish is stupid, even if it is full, it may be eaten again, which will cause it to die, small fish can be fed 4-6 grains of feed at a time.

    Feed once a day.

    In winter, it is fed once every two days, and it is advisable to eat the goldfish in 3 to 5 minutes each feeding. Goldfish that have just been bought home have a poor appetite, so pay attention to feeding less. Goldfish should also be fed regularly, at a fixed time point every day.

    If it is a goldfish that has just been bought home, you can't eat a lot at first, you should gradually increase the amount of feeding from less to more, even if the goldfish can eat very much, you can't feed more, otherwise the fish are prone to indigestion.

    There are many types of ornamental fish, and the frequency of feeding is basically not necessarily, according to the individual fish farming, it is roughly divided into three categories, which are once every three days, once a day and three times a day. Once every three days does not allow the fish to hold on, but it also grows slowly, and the color is not very good. Once a day is much better, and you can feed it until you are seven or eight minutes full each time.

    Those who can raise fish can be fed three times a day, and the fish will grow faster by feeding them separately for good digestion.

    There is no starvation of fish farming, but there are support to die, the fish have a strong ability to resist hunger, and there will be no problem if they are not fed for a few days, but if they are fed too often and the amount is too much, it will affect its growth and even lead to the death of the fish. Feeding the fish once every three days can meet the survival of the fish, and because the amount is not too much, there is less bait and feces, and the water quality will not become turbid. However, feeding the fish once every three days will cause the growth of the fish to slow down, and it may not be able to raise it for a few years, so as to raise the old head fish.

    If you want to watch your fish grow well, then you should pay attention to feeding the fish, feeding them once a day will not only keep them full, but also help the fish to develop color and make it look more ornamental. It should be noted that the amount of feeding is not fixed for different types of fish of different sizes, so it is necessary to feed according to the situation of the fish, usually until it is seven or eight minutes full. To check whether the fish are full, you can observe the action after the bait, if the reaction is slow and not interested in the food, it means that it is full.

    For fish masters, feeding once a day can raise the fish well, but it is not good, the amount of feed a day is divided into three meals, each time feeding a little, not only can keep it in a state of excitement, but also more conducive to digestion. Such fish grow fast, have good hair color, and are more indicative of the skill of the fish farmer.
