The fish may have been bitten by other fish or cut by sharp objects in the tank. At this point, salt can be used to disinfect the wound, after which the scales will grow back. They may also lose their scales because they are sick. At this time, in addition to disinfecting with salt, special drug treatment has to be used. The drugs used to treat different diseases are different, so we need to judge what diseases they have first, and then treat them appropriately.
Double line fish drops scale is what reason, how to treat?

1. what is the reason for the two-line fish to lose scales

If the two-line fish has the phenomenon of losing scales, then you must first know the reason. Generally speaking, there are many reasons. If more than one fish is raised, the fish may be in conflict for a number of reasons and may lose their scales during the fight. In addition, it may also be careless when fishing for fish, resulting in their scales being knocked off. It may also be that there are some sharp objects in the tank, such as sharp stones, etc., which may accidentally hit them after the two-line fish is frightened, and the scales will be removed. These are all external factors.

The last case is that the double-lined fish is sick. The symptoms of some diseases include scaling, such as "red skin disease" and "vertical scale disease", and if not treated in time, the symptoms will be further aggravated, and may even affect their lives.

2. how to treat double-lined fish scaling

If scaling is caused by external reasons, that is, due to fighting or accidentally touching the scales when fishing out, or there are sharp objects in the fish tank causing them to scale, you can only deal with the part of their scaling. You can fish them out and disinfect them with 1% salt water, and then the scales will grow back.

However, if they lose their scales due to illness, the process of disposal will be more troublesome. In order to prevent infectious diseases, it is necessary to fish out the scaly fish and isolate them, and then treat them. First of all, we should judge the specific disease according to the symptoms, then treat it with special drugs, and then put it back into the original cylinder after they have completely recovered. In order to prevent accidents, the original cylinder can also be sterilized. In the process of breeding, we also need to pay attention to ensuring water quality, so that fish are not easy to get sick.
