How to raise moonlight fish? What should we pay attention to?

1. the water temperature

of moonlight fish is tropical fish, the water temperature they like is 22-26 C, but they need to adjust the water temperature to 25-26 C when breeding. Moonlight fish are sensitive to changes in water temperature. If the temperature difference is too large, they will have a stress reaction. The breeder needs to use a heating rod to keep the temperature constant.

2.

Moonlight fish has strong adaptability to water quality and can survive in neutral or weak alkaline water. The breeder only needs to keep the PH value between 7 and 7.4. If conditions permit, a circulating filtration system can be installed to slow down the deterioration of water quality. If there is no circulating pump, the water needs to be changed 1-2 times a week to ensure clean water quality. The amount of water change should not be too large and should be controlled at one third of the total amount of water. When pouring water, we should also pay attention to the fact that the current should not be too fast, otherwise the current will hit the fish and cause them to have stress reactions.

3. There are many kinds of food for feeding

moonlight fish, and the breeder can feed them with synthetic feed and live bait, which can not only ensure adequate nutrition, but also make the nutrition more comprehensive. Live bait can choose some shrimp, red worms, mealworms, tubificidae, water fleas and so on. Moonlight fish's appetite is not big, the breeder does not need to feed too much food, once a day, each time the amount of feeding can be eaten within 10 minutes. If the temperature is low, the feeding amount or frequency can be reduced.
