mini parrot fish mini parrot fish will automatically pair up when they are in heat, but if there is only one male and one female in the tank, it is easier to fight and it is not easy to pair up. Breeders can first raise them separately, or put a transparent partition in the middle of the tank, and then put the female and male together when the belly of the female fish turns yellow, the success rate of pairing will be very high. After successful
pairing, the male fish will lead the female fish to the spawning place chosen by himself, and guard the nest together, so as not to let other fish approach. When miniature parrot fish breed, the female first lays eggs in the nest, then guards the nest after laying eggs, and then the male goes in to fertilize. It takes about 1-2 days to tell whether the eggs are fertilized or not. The breeder can fish out the eggs that are not fertilized, and then ensure that there is enough food in the tank. The miniature parrot fish will hatch the small fish by itself.
mini parrot fish after spawning? Mini parrot fish can hatch small fish about 5-7 days after spawning. During the incubation period, male and female fish will always be around to guard. The breeder only needs to keep the water temperature at about 28 degrees to ensure adequate food and oxygen. On the second day after spawning, the fertilized eggs will turn black, and careful observation can take a good look at the eyes of small fish. The small fish will hatch in 3-4 days, but they can't swim yet. Generally, the big fish will find food and send it to the small fish. On the 5th to 7th day after spawning, the small fish can swim by themselves, and the big fish will take the small fish to feed together.
