with its head down? If the parrot fish has the problem of its head down, it can still be saved. This is not a very serious problem, as long as we understand the cause of the problem, and then take appropriate measures to treat the parrot fish, they can recover.
1. Lack of oxygen: because the gills of parrot fish are naturally defective, when the oxygen supply is insufficient, the parrot fish will be upside down. At this time, we only need to strengthen the oxygen supply.
2. Be frightened: It is usually because we change too much water when changing water, which requires us to pay attention to the amount of water when changing water at ordinary times. Do not change more than one third of the water each time, and do not change the water too fast and too hard. After a period of rest, it will recover.
3. Temperature: Sudden changes in water temperature are one of the most common causes of parrot fish with their heads down. In this case, the water temperature can be raised to 32 degrees Celsius, and appropriate salt can be added, and the fish can recover. After that, we should pay more attention to the water temperature and avoid sudden changes.
In addition to environmental concerns, a maladjusted swim bladder can cause parrot fish to have their heads pointing down. At this point, you need to lower the water level and fix the parrot fish with a splint, so that the parrot fish can recover after a while.
