Mini parrot fish under the small fish with separate, when to separate

Mini parrots don't need to be separated when they first come down, because small fish need to absorb mucus secreted by their mothers to survive, so they will always be on their parents when they are born. When they are born for about 7 days, they will come down from their mothers and forage and move by themselves. When they are born, the breeder should not separate the small fish from the parent fish, and it is best to wait for the small fish to take off before trying to separate them.

1. Do you want to separate the mini parrot after dropping the mini parrot?

It is best not to separate the mini parrot after dropping the mini parrot, because the newborn mini parrot can't forage and needs to attract the mucus on the mother to survive. If the breeder separates the parent fish from the small fish, the small fish will probably starve to death because they can't find food. Under normal circumstances, when a small fish is born about 7 days ago, it will come down from its parent fish and try to forage and move by itself. Therefore, when they are born, it is best for breeders not to separate the small fish from their parent fish, but to try to separate them after the small fish take off.

2. When will the mini parrot fish separate

Generally speaking, the mini parrot fish will flick its tail about 3 days after birth, take off about 7 days after birth, and can forage and move on its own about 5 days after taking off, so the breeder can separate the parent fish from the small fish about half a month after the mini parrot fish is born, because they have come down from the mother at this time. If the feeding density is low, it is ok not to separate.

But when the feeding density is high, it must be divided. Because mini parrot fish have a strong sense of territory, if the breeder does not separate the parent fish from the small fish, the parent fish will probably eat the small fish.
