Parrot fish are very sensitive to changes in water temperature. Although they like new water, they should not change it frequently, otherwise it will affect their normal growth. Under the condition of artificial breeding, water can be changed every 3-4 days, and when the temperature difference changes greatly, water can be changed every 7 days. In addition, it should be noted that only two-thirds of the water needs to be replaced every time, and all the water should not be replaced.
How long does the parrot fish change water, and what should I pay attention to after changing water 1. How often do parrots change water

Parrots like new water very much, but changing water frequently will easily cause great fluctuations in water temperature difference, which is not conducive to their growth, so they cannot change water frequently. Under the condition of artificial feeding, when the water temperature is in a normal state, the water can be changed every 3-4 days; When the water temperature difference changes greatly, it is necessary to change the water every 7 days. In addition, when there are too many bacteria in the water, it is necessary to change the water immediately.

Finally, it should be noted that in order to maintain the water temperature in a relatively stable state, only two-thirds of the old water needs to be replaced every time, and all the water should not be replaced at one time.

2. What should parrot fish pay attention to after changing water

Because parrot fish is very sensitive to the change of water temperature, when the water temperature is in a low temperature environment or the water temperature difference fluctuates greatly, the body color of parrot fish will change, and black spots will appear seriously, which is very unfavorable to its growth. Therefore, after changing water, it is necessary to observe their active state and whether their body color changes.

If the water temperature is lower than 28 ℃ after changing water, the heater can be used to control the water temperature at about 28 ℃. In addition, if the nitrification system in the water is destroyed after water change, appropriate nitrifying bacteria can be added to improve the water quality.
