Although fish are likely to get sick all year round, the prevalence rate is higher in early spring and late winter, when the temperature is lower and the fish's resistance is poor.
1, suspend feeding: found that the fish suffering from white disease, the first thing to do is to suspend feeding. Because the fish's appetite will decrease after illness, it will not eat at this time, and food into the water into residual bait, decomposition will pollute the water quality, which is very harmful to the health of the fish, and may even aggravate the disease.
2. Change the water to warm up: It is necessary to change the water to cure the white disease, because this disease is usually caused by poor water quality. Improving the water quality can create a safe growth environment, which is also helpful to the health of fish.

3. Medicated immersion: Medicated immersion of fish is also a good treatment. Prepare a proper amount of salt and baking soda, mix them with water to make a solution, and then soak the fish in it. In addition, you can also choose malachite green, methylene blue and so on, but you should control the dosage.
