When raising goldfish, water quality is a very important aspect. Water may contain some bacteria, so a certain amount of salt can be added to the water, which can play a role in eliminating bacteria, but also has a certain role in enhancing the vitality of goldfish and enhancing their appetite. Salt can be added to the water every time the goldfish's water is changed.
Furthermore, when a goldfish is sick, it can also be treated with salt. For example, some diseases caused by bacteria, such as saprolegniasis and gill rot, can be treated by adding salt. However, the type of salt needs more attention, preferably coarse salt, do not use edible salt, because it contains iodine, and iodine is harmful to goldfish. If the use of refined salt, then it is best not to add goldfish directly into the water, but to dissolve them in the water, and then pour in. Moreover, we should pay attention to the amount of salt added, and the concentration should be controlled at five thousandths as far as possible, that is, adding five kilograms of salt to 1000 kilograms of water.
In the process of raising goldfish, it is often necessary to change the water for goldfish, so an important issue is how to deal with the bacteria in the water if there are any. Therefore, in order to ensure the health of goldfish, it is best to disinfect the water. In general, some salt can be added as a disinfectant. In addition, there are some substances can also play the same role, such as malachite green and potassium permanganate and so on. Moreover, before putting in water, you can also put water in the sun to dry, which can not only remove chlorine, but also have a certain disinfection and sterilization effect.
