Parrot fish can live in water temperatures of 25-30 degrees, but the best water for them is 28-29 degrees. Because in this temperature range, their activity is the highest and their appetite is the best. If the temperature is too high, the parrot fish will suffer from anorexia, reduced activity, hypoxia and other problems. If the temperature is too low, parrot fish will not like to swim, eat less, get sick and other problems. Therefore, it is better to keep a stable and suitable water temperature when feeding.
What is the right temperature and pH for parrot fish?

1. the temperature of parrot fish is appropriate

. Parrot fish has a strong ability to adapt to the environment and can live in the water temperature between 25-30 degrees. But if you want the parrot fish to be more active, you can adjust the water temperature to 28-29 degrees. Although parrot fish have strong adaptability, if the water temperature is too low, they will also have problems such as not eating and not being active. If the temperature is too high, it is easy for parrot fish to suffer from hypoxia and reduced activity. Therefore, it is better for the breeder to give them a stable and suitable water temperature. If the temperature is low in winter, the heating rod can be turned on to keep the temperature. If the temperature is high in summer, you can put ice bags to cool down.

2. The pH value of parrot fish is appropriate

. Parrot fish likes new water with weak acidity. As long as the PH value is between 5.5 and 7.0, parrot fish can survive well. If conditions permit, the PH value can be controlled between 6.5 and 7.0, which is more conducive to their hair color. Parrot fish like new water, breeders can change water once every two days, the amount of water each time should be controlled at a quarter, and the temperature difference between new water and old water should not exceed 2 degrees. It should be noted that when changing water, do not use the tap water that has just come out, but use the water that has been exposed to the sun for more than three days.
