To breed parrot fish, parent fish should be selected first, and male fish can choose purple live mouth, Luohan fish and other species. First, the male fish is allowed to expel sperm, then the female parrot fish is put in, and the female fish is allowed to lay eggs in the tank with sperm. In this way, only part of the eggs can be fertilized, and the unfertilized eggs need to be fished out after 1-2 days. After spawning, female fish can not be hatched by themselves and need to be hatched artificially. The water temperature should be maintained at 26-28 degrees, and the water quality should be good. This is more conducive to the incubation of fish eggs.
How do parrot fish reproduce and take care of their offspring?

1. How does the parrot fish reproduce

? The parrot fish is a hybrid of the red devil and the purple live mouth fish. The hybridization between different species makes the male parrot fish have no reproductive capacity, so the female parrot fish can only reproduce with the male fish of other species. In order to breed parrot fish, it is important to choose the parent fish. Female parrot fish can interbreed with male fish of other species. Male fish such as red devils

can be selected as parent fish to breed with female parrot fish. First, the male fish is allowed to discharge sperm in the tank, and then the female parrot fish is put in to ovulate. In this way, after laying eggs, there may be some fertilized eggs. The fertilized eggs produced by hybridization can not be hatched normally by the female fish and need to be hatched artificially. To have a special breeding tank, the water temperature in the breeding tank should be raised to about 27 degrees, and the water quality should be well controlled. Only in this way can the eggs hatch smoothly.

2. How to take care of the offspring

of parrot fish 1. Isolation: First fish out the female parrot fish that has laid eggs and isolate it from the eggs in different fish tanks. The main purpose of this is to protect the fertilized eggs from being eaten by the mother fish as food.

2. Screening of fish eggs: There are two types of fish eggs: fertilized and unfertilized. The unfertilized eggs are milky white, and some even have white hairs. Unfertilized fish eggs should be fished out in time to avoid polluting water quality, so that fertilized fish eggs can not hatch parrot fish.

3. Maintain the water temperature: Raise the water temperature to about 27 degrees and keep it constant. This water environment is more conducive to the hatching of fish eggs.
