When raising the lucky fish, you may observe the phenomenon of red and festering on its body, so it is very likely that they are sick. Specifically, this disease is called "red spot disease", the symptoms are more obvious. When the disease is not so serious, there will be some red spots on the body surface of the lucky fish. In severe cases, the body will be ulcerated and the scales will fall off. This disease is generally caused by poor water quality, which leads to the growth of bacteria in water. When the lucky fish fight with each other and have wounds on their bodies, symptoms will appear.
When the lucky fish has related symptoms, it needs to be treated in time, otherwise the further aggravation of the disease will endanger their illness, and may also affect other lucky fish. The treatment needs to be adjusted according to the severity of the symptoms. If the disease is in the early stage and not too serious, it can be treated by changing water, warming and sprinkling salt. Specifically, about a quarter of the water in the fish tank can be replaced, then sprinkled with salt to disinfect it, and the water temperature can be raised to 28-29 degrees.
If the symptoms are more serious, only take the above measures will not work, need to use medicine to treat. Yellow powder and gentamicin can be used to treat it. Yellow powder can play a role in sterilization, while gentamicin is an antibiotic, which can improve the resistance of fish. Keep using the drug until the fish is healthy again. In the process of medication, it is necessary to keep oxygen for 24 hours and raise the water temperature to 30 degrees. In this process, feeding can be carried out normally.
