The phenomenon of parrot fish piling up after changing water may be caused by the low temperature in the water. At this time, you can increase the temperature of the water by installing a heating rod in the fish tank, or you can slowly add some hot water to the fish tank. It may also be due to the damage of the oxygen supply system in the fish tank. At this time, the oxygen supply system should be repaired in time. Another reason is that the water quality is not very healthy. At this time, they should be replaced by new water with weak acidity and low hardness. It can be changed several times to avoid major changes in water quality.
Why do parrot fish get together after changing water and how to deal with it?

1. Water temperature is too low

1. Reason: Parrot fish is suitable for living in 25-30 ℃ water temperature. If you do not pay attention to controlling the water temperature when maintaining it, the temperature is too low, then it will pile up in order to warm each other.

2. Treatment method: At this time, attention should be paid to raising the water temperature. The water temperature can be raised by installing a heating rod in the fish tank to make the water temperature reach the appropriate temperature, or some hot water can be slowly added to the fish tank. When the water temperature rises and reaches the appropriate survival temperature, there will be no clustering phenomenon.

2. Damage

of oxygen supply system 1. Why: It's a highly oxygenated fish that needs plenty of oxygen to sustain its daily life. Its mouth and gills have congenital defects that can not be closed, and the control of water flow is poor, so the ability to absorb dissolved oxygen in water is low, and it needs a 24-hour oxygen supply system to maintain the necessary oxygen for life. Therefore, once the oxygen supply is insufficient, there will be a phenomenon of clustering.

2. Treatment: At this time, it is necessary to check the oxygen supply system in time to maintain the normal operation of the oxygen supply system. If the oxygen supply system is damaged, it is recommended to purchase a new oxygen supply system to ensure adequate oxygen supply for 24 hours.

3. Poor

water quality 1. Reason: It likes soft water with weak acidity and low hardness. However, if the water quality is alkaline and hard, which is not suitable for their growth, it will lead to its lack of vitality and the phenomenon of piling up.

2. Treatment method: At this time, attention should be paid to its water change work. New water should choose weak alkaline soft water, and when changing water, do not change all the water, leaving part of the water. In this way, it is not easy to pile up.
