After catching a cold, tropical fish should first stop feeding, then pay attention to temperature control, and if the condition is serious, they should be bathed with baking soda. In the early stages, fish with this disease will shrink their fins, lose their luster, become dull, and have no strength to swim. In severe cases, they will float on the surface of the water, become listless, lose their appetite, or even stop eating at all.

One, how did tropical fish catch a cold to do

1, stop to feed: If tropical fish catches a cold, want to stop to feed it above all. Sick fish's own appetite will decrease, or even do not eat, so feeding is meaningless, and food into the water as residual bait, but also a certain degree of pollution to the water quality, so need to stop feeding, until recovery to continue feeding.

2. Temperature control: The main reason for catching a cold is that the temperature has changed too much. In order to prevent the aggravation of the disease and to recover as soon as possible, attention should be paid to controlling the water temperature. The temperature of raising tropical fish should be at least above 20 ℃, generally 22-26 ℃ is better, but the daily increase should not be too large, up to 2 ℃ a day.

3. Medication: If the cold is serious, it needs to be treated with medication. Prepare a separate fish tank, pour in the original tank water, and add a little baking soda, put the fish in it to soak, can promote metabolism, enhance its vitality, can also add a certain amount of sea salt, can also play a bactericidal effect.

Fish is a poikilothermic animal. Changes in external temperature have a great impact on it. Once the water temperature changes, it will stimulate its nerve endings. In this way, the activities of the fish's internal organs will be out of balance, leading to its cold. For tropical fish, the low temperature is very harmful, so it is better to prepare a heating rod in the water so as to maintain the water temperature.
