? Clownfish will get white spot disease, because white spot disease is a common parasitic infection disease, generally caused by low water temperature, because white spot disease is also known as Ichthyophthirius disease, Ichthyophthirius's favorite temperature is 18-23 C, in the low temperature environment. They can reproduce in large numbers and absorb nutrients from clownfish to supplement their physical strength. Another reason for
suffering from white spot disease is that the water quality is too poor, poor water quality bacteria breed faster, will also lead to the reduction of the resistance of the clown fish, at this time the small melon worm will take the opportunity to enter, into the body of the clown fish. Most of them live under the skin, tail and gills of fish, then suck the tissues and nutrients of fish, stimulate them to secrete a large amount of mucus, and form a white spot or pustule on the body surface.
Clownfish with white spot disease? Clownfish with white spot disease need to be isolated first, then raise the water temperature and add 2% salt to kill most of the small melon worms. If the symptoms are serious, the breeder can use methyl blue, malachite green or copper sulfate solution to treat the sick fish with medicated bath once a day for 15-20 minutes each time, and the fish can recover after a week.
