Too much oxygen can easily lead to bubble disease in fish. But usually, only when the dissolved oxygen is saturated, the fish will get this disease, and the general oxygen pump into the air, its oxygen content is not high, dissolved in water and less, so will not encounter this situation. But if fish adapt to oxygen-rich water, once the oxygen content decreases, it may lead to their death.
How does the oxygen-rich fish react and when does it need to be oxygenated

1. what is the reaction of the oxygen-rich fish

If the dissolved oxygen in the water body is saturated, it is easy for the fish to suffer from bubble disease. But under normal circumstances, water oxygen saturation is almost impossible, oxygenation equipment into the water is air, oxygen content itself is not high, dissolved in water is not much, so there will be no problem. The only trouble is that when the fish adapt to the high oxygen content of the water, once the oxygenation stops, it will lead to discomfort and even death.

2. When to oxygenate

1. Open the tank and oxygenate: The first thing to do in the first fish farming is to open the tank, and oxygenate is needed when opening the tank. Because in the process of opening the tank, nitrification system needs to be established, and nitrifying bacteria themselves are aerobic bacteria, only by providing sufficient oxygen can they grow and reproduce.

2. Daily oxygenation: In addition to the need for oxygenation when opening the cylinder, it is also necessary to oxygenate every day at ordinary times. According to the demand of fish for oxygen, the time of oxygenation is about two hours a day, if it is in summer or cloudy weather, the time of oxygenation should be increased appropriately, so as to avoid the phenomenon of floating head of fish due to hypoxia.

3. Oxygenation during the disease period: If the fish is invaded by bacteria during the growth process, causing it to get sick, proper oxygenation is needed during the treatment period. Oxygenation has many benefits. On the one hand, it can promote the metabolism of the fish and improve its resistance. On the other hand, medication often consumes oxygen in the water body, which can be supplemented by oxygenation.
