Arowana is a relatively common ornamental fish. When breeding it, the first thing to pay attention to is the size of the fish tank. Because arowana itself is a relatively large ornamental fish, the fish tank can not be too small. Generally speaking, the minimum requirement for size is 1.5 meters in length, 0.5 meters in width and 0.7 meters in height. If the number of cultured arowana is relatively large, then we should choose a larger tank.
Arowana also has higher requirements for water quality. The origin of arowana in the tropics and subtropical regions, the water temperature is relatively high, the water temperature between 28-30 degrees is more appropriate. Furthermore, the problem of acidity and alkalinity, the choice of acidic water is better, PH value can be between 6.5 and 7.
Because arowana has high requirements for water quality, regular water change is also a very important step in its maintenance. It is better to change the water once a week, the water just received can not be directly put into the fish tank, to use the water after drying, otherwise the chlorine is more, which is not conducive to the growth of fish. When you change the water, you can change about one fifth of the water. When injecting water, we need to pay special attention to the water temperature, slowly inject, the change of water temperature can not be higher than 2 degrees, otherwise it will also cause harm to arowana.
Feeding arowana is also an important step in its maintenance. You can feed it once or twice a day, not more than twice a day. Each feeding time, you can be about seven points full, that is, to observe the belly of the arowana slightly bulging, you can stop, do not feed too much. It can be fed with small fish and shrimp, and with frogs, barley insects and other foods, the effect is better.
