The oxygen content in the water is very important for breeding parrot fish. Moreover, since the parrot fish itself is a cross between two species of fish, its respiratory system itself is not perfect, so the oxygen in the water is even more important. Therefore, the water needs sufficient oxygen to meet its survival requirements. Usually need to pay attention to water quality, pay attention to water change, otherwise the water quality is very dirty after its dissolved oxygen will be reduced.
Moreover, it is also necessary to give it oxygen at ordinary times in order to make its growth and development better. When they are sick, the demand for oxygen content will be higher, so they should pay special attention when they are sick. Sometimes the oxygen pump and other appliances can not be used because of power failure, in order to prevent this phenomenon leading to the death of parrot fish due to lack of oxygen, you can prepare a battery oxygenator standby.
Specifically, how long parrot fish can live without oxygen is not certain, which is related to the original dissolved oxygen in the water and the number of parrot fish. If the water quality is relatively clean and the dissolved oxygen in the water is relatively high, the parrot fish can live longer; If the water is dirty and there is not much oxygen in the water, then the parrot fish will live for a shorter time. Moreover, if the number of parrot fish is very large, then generally more than four hours without oxygen will lead to their hypoxia phenomenon, longer time may endanger their lives.
