Koi cold lying on the bottom of the tank may be caused by the cold weather in winter. At this time, koi need to be placed in a warm place for maintenance. The water temperature should not be lower than 20 degrees. It may also be caused by excessive changes in water temperature. At this time, it is necessary to stop feeding the koi immediately, while maintaining the water temperature at about 25 degrees. It may also be caused by frequent water injection. At this time, it is necessary to change the koi to the old water with a water temperature of about 25 degrees for rest and wait for them to recover.
Koi cold what is the bottom of the tank, how to treat?

1. Raise the water temperature

1. Reason: The temperature becomes very low in winter and early spring. If the koi is raised outdoors, the koi is likely to catch a cold.

2. Treatment method: At this time, the koi needs to be moved to a warm place for maintenance. During curing, keep the temperature between 20 degrees and 26 degrees. If outdoor maintenance is necessary, the water temperature can be maintained by deepening the water level line, because when the water level line is relatively high, the low water temperature in the tank will not be too low.

2. Stop eating and raise the temperature

1. Reason: When maintaining the koi, if the water temperature is not well controlled, the water temperature will rise and fall, and the koi will easily catch a cold.

2. Treatment method: Stop feeding the koi immediately, and at the same time, keep the water temperature of the koi at about 25 degrees. After the koi cold is cured, it will be maintained normally.

3. Old water isolation

1. Reason: The water temperature is too low in autumn and winter. If water is injected into the koi fish tank frequently, the water temperature balance of the fish tank will be broken, and the koi fish will catch a cold.

2. Treatment: At this time, it is necessary to fish out the koi with a cold from the fish tank to avoid infecting other koi. During the quarantine period, no feeding is allowed. This situation generally does not require medication, keep the water temperature between 20 degrees and 26 degrees on the line. It should be noted that during the isolation period, the maintenance water needs to use old water, not new water. Conservation with old water is helpful for the recovery of Koi.
