In the breeding of arowana, sometimes we will observe the phenomenon of their tank jumping. There are many reasons for this phenomenon. Specifically, there are the following five situations:
1. The water quality is not good: Sometimes, the arowana jumps the tank simply because the water quality is too poor, causing it to have no way to adapt. You can observe the water quality, if the water is dirty and has not been changed for a long time, it may be the reason.
2. Prey on insects: Arowana is a kind of upper fish, which often moves in the upper layer of the fish tank. So, if there are some insects on the surface of the water, then the arowana may jump into the tank to prey on these insects, such as mosquitoes and so on. This phenomenon occurs more often in summer.
3. The water level is too high or the jar cover is too tight: Furthermore, it is also possible that the water level is too high. At this time, they will see water droplets on the cover and mistakenly think that there is food. At this time, they will jump the jar. It may also be that the lid is too tight, at this time their breathing is blocked, and they will jump.
4. Frightened: If the arowana is suddenly frightened, the phenomenon of tank jumping may also occur. Specifically, there are many situations, such as suddenly making a very loud sound, and suddenly a stranger walking by and so on.
5, sick: Moreover, there is a very likely reason is sick, there are uncomfortable symptoms, at this time they may also jump tank.
If the water quality is not good, you can change part of the water, but not too much water at a time, if the water quality is still relatively dirty, you can use the filter. If the water level is too high, the water level can be lowered appropriately. If the cylinder head is too tight, some gaps can be left appropriately. If it is caused by shock, you can pay more attention, especially the arowana that has not yet adapted to the surrounding environment, can not let them be frightened. If the arowana is sick, it needs immediate treatment, and if the symptoms are serious, it has to use special drugs.
