When raising map fish, sometimes they will inevitably get sick. If something like hoar frost appears on their bodies, they may be suffering from "white spot disease". At the beginning of the disease, there will be some small white spots on the body of the map fish, which may be distributed in the fins or gills. It's small, but it looks obvious. In addition to the appearance of white spots, their activity will be significantly reduced, inactive, often floating on the surface of the water or the corner of the fish tank. At this time, if not treated in time, the condition will be aggravated, in a state of serious illness, the body surface of map fish will be covered with a layer of white film. At this time, their color will become very dim. If it is serious, it may endanger their lives.
map fish got "white spot disease", need timely treatment. The white spot worm that causes the disease is not resistant to high temperatures, so it can be treated by adjusting the temperature of the water. The water temperature can be gradually increased to about 30 degrees, so that they may automatically fall off the body of the map fish. However, if the condition is more serious, it needs medication. You can use medicines such as mercurochrome to soak the map fish in the water. The amount of mercurochrome should not be too much, so that the color of the water can be slightly red. Furthermore, the soaking time can be controlled in 5-10 minutes.
