ornamental fish indicates that it is suffering from white spot disease. This is a common disease, which is caused by the invasion of Ichthyophthirius into fish. It is not only easy to infect, but also harmful, so it needs timely treatment. This disease is relatively high in late autumn and early spring, when the temperature is relatively low, Ichthyophthirius is easier to grow and reproduce, so in order to prevent disease, we must pay attention to temperature control, keep the temperature above 25 C.
1, stop feeding: found that fish suffering from white spot disease, need to stop feeding at the first time, at this time the fish's appetite itself is not high, feeding will not eat, but also pollute the water quality, once the water quality becomes worse, the recovery of the disease will increase the difficulty, so stop feeding is the best choice. And you won't starve to death if you don't feed for a week, so don't worry.
2, old 3 kinds: In disease of white spot initial stage, use old 3 kinds to undertake treating commonly, namely change water, heat up, add salt. Changing water is different from usual, usually every other day, so as to improve water quality as soon as possible. The temperature rise should not be too high every day, up to 2 degrees Celsius a day, until it rises above 25 degrees Celsius, preferably at about 28 degrees Celsius. Salt can not be added more, the salinity is about five thousandths.
3. Medicated immersion and washing: If the white spot disease is serious and cannot be cured by the old three, the fish body needs to be immersed and washed with medicine at this time. The most commonly used is the white spot net, the efficacy of this medicine is very good, a few minutes there will be white spots off.
