? 1. Water temperature: The suitable temperature for parrot fish is 25-30 degrees, but if you want them to start, you need to keep a stable water temperature. Parrot fish's favorite temperature is 26 degrees, so keeping the temperature at 26 degrees is very helpful for them to start.
2. Water quality: Parrot fish like fresh water. The water quality should be weakly acidic, and the PH value should be between 6.5 and 7.0. Breeders can change new water every two days, and the temperature difference between new water and old water should not exceed 1 degree. The amount of water changed each time should be a quarter of the total amount of water.
3. Oxygen: Parrot fish naturally need a lot of oxygen, so if you want them to start, you need to give them enough oxygen. Breeders can install oxygen pumps in fish tanks or change water frequently to increase the dissolved oxygen in water.
4, nutrition is sufficient: Parrot fish eats what food, and appetite is bigger. Breeders can arrange the type and quantity of food reasonably, feed more high-protein food, or special starter feed, which is more helpful for them to start.
? Male parrot fish usually start in about 2 years. But not all male parrot fish head up. Ordinary species of parrot fish will not start, only the macaw fish and the God of wealth parrot fish are relatively easy to start.
