Oxygen pumps are needed to raise parrot fish, because they are a hybrid of red devil fish and purple fire mouth fish. They are born with lips that can not be completely closed, and their ability to handle water flow is relatively poor. The water flow through the gills will become smaller. Fish normally get oxygen through the exchange of water flow with gill water flow. The flow of water through their gills is small, and they can get less oxygen, so breeders need oxygen to ensure that the dissolved oxygen in the water is sufficient to make them grow better.
Do you use
an oxygen pump to
raise parrot fish? Because they are hybrid fish, their congenital lips can not be closed, and their ability to swallow and spit water is poor, so their ability to obtain oxygen by exchanging water and gills is relatively weak. If the oxygen pump is not installed in the fish tank, the dissolved oxygen in the water will be reduced, and the parrot fish will lack oxygen. Therefore, in the process of raising parrot fish, oxygen pumps need to be installed to ensure their normal growth.
In addition, breeders should change water frequently, because the deterioration of water quality will also affect the dissolved oxygen in water, so it is better to change 2-3 water a week, which can also increase the dissolved oxygen in water. Circulating pumps can also be installed to slow down the deterioration of water quality.
2. Do you need a heating rod
to raise parrot fish? Parrot fish is a tropical ornamental fish. The water temperature suitable for life is between 25-32 degrees Celsius, but the favorite water temperature is 28 degrees Celsius, so it is better for breeders to install heating rods for them. They are also sensitive to changes in water temperature. When the temperature difference is too large or the temperature is too low, they will have a stress response, causing their body color to darken or whiten, and they may also have black stripes or stripes. Therefore, in the process of raising parrot fish, we should also pay attention to the temperature difference not exceeding 2 degrees Celsius.
