The common diseases of guppies are white spot disease, rotten tail disease, needle tail disease and so on. Disease prevention and control should start with regulating the living environment of fish and sterilization. Adjusting its environment is mainly to make the water quality and temperature reach the appropriate conditions. That is to say, the temperature is ensured to be between 21 and 29 deg C, and the sudden increase or decrease of the temperature is avoided. The water should be clean and acidic or alkaline, which fish like. In the aspect of anti-bacteria, appropriate salt can be added after each water change to achieve the effect of sterilization and disinfection.

2. how to prevent and treat common diseases of guppies

Most of the reasons why fish get sick are the deterioration of their living environment, which reduces their immunity, thus allowing bacteria to take advantage of it. Therefore, in the process of disease prevention and control, we should not only prevent bacteria and viruses, but also ensure that the living environment of fish meets the standards. In the aspect of anti-bacteria and anti-virus, salt can be added to water to achieve the effect of sterilization and disinfection. If the fish has a wound, it should be treated in time, otherwise it will be infected with bacteria and cause illness.

Environmental conditions are mainly from two aspects of water quality and temperature. The water quality should be adjusted to the acidity and alkalinity that fish like, and the water quality should be clean. The oxygen content in the water should be sufficient. Water quality mutation should be avoided every time water is changed. The temperature should be controlled in the range of 21 ℃ ~ 29 ℃. And maintain stability to enhance their immunity. When changing water, the temperature difference between new water and old water should not exceed 2 degrees Celsius.
