Fish have stronger hunger tolerance, and for tropical fish, it is no problem to do not feed for a month. However, if they are not fed for a long time, the growth of fish will be limited, and even stunted. So it is necessary to feed regularly to ensure its health, but also help the fish hair color, improve its ornamental.
1. Feed selection: There are two kinds of feeds for feeding tropical fish, namely artificial feed and live bait. The artificial feed is divided into flake feed, pellet feed and frozen feed. Although they are rich in nutrition, they cannot be fed all the time, otherwise the fish will be picky about food, and live bait should be matched regularly. Live bait is mostly used for fish and insects, which need to be disinfected before feeding, otherwise it will cause fish to get sick.
2. Feeding times: Under normal circumstances, tropical fish should be fed 1-2 times a day, and they should be fed regularly and quantitatively, so that the fish can develop a certain feeding habit, which is also very helpful for their health. When feeding, we should pay attention to observation, the fish will grab food at the beginning, until the appetite is not high, you can not continue to feed.
3. Removal of residual bait: If too much feed is fed to the fish, there will inevitably be residual bait in the fish tank. The bait is decomposed by microorganisms in the water, which often leads to a decline in water quality. Therefore, when changing the water, it is best to remove the residual bait together with the fish to keep the water clean and sanitary.
4. When to stop feeding: For tropical fish, if there are signs of illness and loss of appetite, it is necessary to stop feeding at this time. On the one hand, they do not eat much, on the other hand, the residual bait will remain in the water and affect the water quality. Therefore, temporarily stop feeding until the fish recover and then continue feeding.
