Arowana will lose its eyes if it doesn't turn on the lights for a long time. If there is enough natural light during the day, it won't affect their growth if it doesn't turn on the lights at night. If there is not enough natural light during the day and the breeder does not give them additional lighting, they will be in a dim environment for a long time and will naturally look down.
In addition to turning off the lights, arowana will lose their eyes, and too much light will also cause them to lose their eyes. Because they are sensitive to light, if the light is too strong, they will look down to avoid the light, and they will lose their eyes after a long time.
2. How can Arowana recover from dropping its eyes1. Control the water level: Arowana may drop its eyes because the water level is too high, because Arowana lives in the upper layer, and if the water level is too high, it will lead them to form the habit of looking down. Breeders need to lower the water level, and the water level should be 15-20 cm lower than the fish tank, so as to alleviate the problem of arowana dropping eyes.
2. Feeding floating feed: To avoid dropping the eyes of arowana, let them look up. Breeders can feed them more floating feed at ordinary times, which can also alleviate the problem of arowana dropping eyes.
3, keep the light even: Strong light also stimulates arowana, causing them to look down. Breeders need to choose some soft lights, and let the lights be evenly distributed in the fish tank. In this way, the arowana will not be affected by the light source when looking up, and the light can also attract them to look up.
