1. Separate breeding: If you want to raise the round tail paradise fish out of the state, it is recommended to select healthy male fish fry for separate breeding. The reason for choosing male fish is that most male fish are more gorgeous than female fish, and they are more likely to show their state. Separate farming is recommended because monoculture provides individuals with more resources for growth. Group-raised individuals may fight or compete for food, and they can not get enough growth resources as monoculture individuals.
2. Feed selection: If you want to raise the round-tailed paradise fish out of the state, you also need to pay attention to the feed selection. They should be fed some feed that can help add color, such as shrimp, red worms and so on. Feeding them 1-2 times a day can help them get out of the state.
3. Mirror training: When breeding, you can also use mirror training to help them get out of the state. The specific method is to prepare a small mirror and put it next to the fish tank so that the fish can see their own mirror image. Put the mirror time should not be too long, put 1-2 times a day, each time put 5-10 minutes can achieve the effect.
4. Dimming the environment: Providing a relatively dark environment can also help their hair color. Therefore, when breeding, appropriate shade from the sun, and the background plate and bottom sand are all replaced by dark, can also help them out of the state.
How big the betta starts to develop color depends mainly on whether the breeding environment is suitable for hair color and its genes. If the gene is good, the environment is more suitable, then 1-2 months can be raised to hair color. If the environment is not suitable, it may take 3-4 months, or even 6 months or more, for them to develop color.
