1. Will fish be poisoned

if they eat centipedes? If they feed a lot of centipedes, the fish will be poisoned after eating them. Because centipedes are poisonous, feeding them in large quantities will cause abnormal emotions in fish, and some fish with poor physique may get sick or die. If the breeder wants to feed some centipedes to the fish, he can choose to feed them every 7 days, and the amount of each feeding should be determined according to the size of the fish. This can not only promote their hair color, but also avoid poisoning. In addition, many ornamental fish do not like to eat centipedes, generally only arowana like to eat centipedes and scorpions and other insects.

If you want to feed the centipede to the fish and avoid poisoning the fish, you can first soak the centipede in a container of vinegar for 10 minutes, so that the centipede can spit out the venom in its body. After soaking, clean it with clean water and cut off the poison gland of the centipede with scissors. The poison gland of the centipede is in the front third of the body, which can be fed after the breeder cuts it off with scissors and rinses it with water.

Although the poison glands of centipedes have been cleaned up, breeders should pay attention to the amount of feeding, because some toxins may remain in the body of centipedes, and a large number of feeding will also lead to poisoning.
