Thai betta fish are not cold water fish, because their origin is Thailand and they belong to tropical rain forest climate, so their living environment temperature is relatively high. To raise Thai betta artificially, it is also necessary to control the water temperature between 22-24 ℃. In this way, their appetite and activity can keep normal, and their growth speed can also keep normal.
If the water temperature is too low, their appetite and activity will decrease. Moreover, if they grow in a low temperature environment for a long time, their resistance and immunity will be reduced, and they are prone to illness. In addition, the water temperature for raising them should not be too high, otherwise their physique will gradually deteriorate and eventually die.
2. How do Thai betta fish spend the winter1. Keep the water temperature: If you want Thai betta fish to spend the winter normally, you should prepare a warm environment for them. The breeder can move them to a heated room, or install a heating rod to keep the water temperature constant.
2. Reduce feeding: After winter, even if the temperature can be kept normal, the appetite of Thai betta fish will decrease. When rearing artificially, it is necessary to appropriately reduce the amount of feeding to avoid indigestion.
3. Pay attention to changing water: The frequency of changing water in Thai betta fish in winter does not need to be too high. During artificial breeding, water can be changed once every 1-2 weeks. When changing water, pay attention to the temperature difference between new water and old water not exceeding 2 ℃, so as to avoid stress reaction caused by too large temperature difference.
