Mini parrots don't need to turn on the lights at night. Like humans, they will rest at night. If the lights are turned on at night, they will remain on alert all the time, unable to relax and rest completely. Moreover, many lights are installed to enhance the ornamental value, so there is no need to turn them on at night.

In addition, if the mini parrot fish are in a state of high tension all the time, their mental and physical effects will occur. For artificially raised mini parrot fish, as long as there is enough light during the day, there is no need to turn on extra lights at night. If the light is too long, it will not only affect their health, but also make the algae in the fish tank grow rapidly. If they don't have enough light, it's best to fill in the light during the day.

Mini parrot fish can turn on the lights for 3-5 hours every day. They don't like too strong light. When they are raised artificially, the time to turn on the lights can be decided according to the time when they receive natural light. If they can receive more natural light, breeders can choose to turn on the lights for 1-2 hours or not. If you receive less natural light, you can turn on the lights for 3-4 hours every day. If you can't receive natural light at all, you can turn on the lights for about 5 hours every day.
