? It usually takes about 6 months for the sexual function of the parrot fry to mature, and 8 months for the body to mature. Different species of parrot fish mature at different times, but there is little difference in the overall time. As long as the environment is stable and the food is sufficient, their development time is usually between 6 and 8 months. If breeders want them to breed, they can do it when they are 8 months old.
1. Stable environment: parrot fish are relatively solid, so they do not have high requirements for the environment. Usually, as long as the water temperature is kept at about 28 C, it can promote their metabolism and accelerate their growth and development. Parrot fish does not require high water quality, as long as the water quality is weakly acidic, it can change water once every three days, and the amount of water changed each time can be controlled at a quarter.
2. Adequate feeding: Parrot fry can be fed with more food such as shrimp, water fleas, water lice, red worms, mealworms and Tenebrio molitor, so as to ensure their adequate nutrition and promote their development. However, breeders can not only feed live bait for a long time, which can easily cause them to be picky eaters, but also with some synthetic feed at ordinary times to ensure their comprehensive nutrition.
3. Disease prevention: The resistance of parrot fish is weak, and breeders need to sterilize them regularly in order to reduce the occurrence of diseases. Once the disease occurs, immediate symptomatic treatment is needed to avoid deterioration of the disease.
