When breeding the seven-color angelfish, sometimes there will be some abnormal phenomena, which may affect their health. For example, if they frequently use their body parts to rub the cylinder, it may be a problem in one aspect. There are two main reasons for this phenomenon. One is that the water contains excessive ammonia, which can cause their bodies to have a maladaptive reaction, at which time they will rub the tank.
Another condition is caused by parasites. It may be that there are some parasites on their body surface, such as oral filaria. If they use their gills to rub the tank, it may be that some parasites, such as Gyrodactylus, appear in their gills. In this case, timely treatment is needed, otherwise the parasites will cause more serious harm to them.
If the discolored angelfish rubbing tank is caused by excessive ammonia in the water, then the treatment can be carried out by changing the water. In this case, the treatment steps are relatively simple. However, if the parasites caused by the seven-color angelfish rub tank, then the treatment process is more troublesome.
If parasites appear on the surface of the body, it is also necessary to change the water, and then use methylene blue and other drugs, 2-3 grams per square meter can be used. If there are parasites in the gills, water should also be changed, and then formalin and other drugs should be used, but not too much, the dosage per square meter should be controlled to 80 ml, each time the medicated bath lasts 8-10 hours, and after 3-5 consecutive treatments, it can be cured.
