? The guppy floating on the surface of the water is not necessarily going to die. It is also possible that the dissolved oxygen in the water is too low, and they have a lack of oxygen. When there is not enough oxygen in the water for them to absorb, they float to the surface for fresh air. It is
also possible that there are diseases in the gills, such as bacterial infection in the gills. At this time, guppies will not only float on the surface of the water, but also shrink their fins and rub their tanks. It is
also possible that the gills are infected with parasites. When the guppy is infected with parasites, the fish will become dull and dull. The tail fin and fins will also appear red and swollen or ulcerated, and later they will not be able to maintain their balance and float on the surface of the water. There are many reasons
float on the surface of the water. Different reasons have different solutions. The following is a detailed introduction:
If it is due to lack of oxygen, the breeder only needs to immediately oxygenate or change the water to increase the dissolved oxygen in the water.
If the gills are infected with bacteria, which makes it difficult for them to breathe, the breeder can use metronidazole to treat the sick fish.
If the guppy has been floating on the surface of the water due to parasitic infection, it can be washed with potassium permanganate solution first, and then bathed with oxytetracycline or trichlorfon.
