Teach you how to raise peacock fish correctly

Anchovies, also known as peacock fish, are small tropical ornamental fish, which are sexually active and easy to raise. General feeding facilities are not limited, rectangular glass vats can be used. The pH of the water used for breeding is neutral, and the requirements of other water quality factors are not strict. This fish adapts to the water temperature strongly, the suitable temperature range is 15-35 degrees Celsius, but the optimum water temperature is 25-26 degrees Celsius. When the water temperature drops to 13 degrees Celsius, it will sit still at the bottom of the water and do not move. If it lasts too long, it will lead to death.

Anchovies are relatively common in daily ornamental fish species, not only cheap, but mainly because their size and color are very beautiful, compared with other fish, it is easier to raise and easier to use for beginners. I believe that most of the experts in aquaculture have the experience of cultivating anchovies. In many cases, anchovies are easy to cause reproductive confusion when raising anchovies, because there are many species of peacock fish, which may occur if several kinds of fish grow together. When raising anchovies, we should try to separate and distinguish different series. Here to introduce how anchovies, there are two kinds of anchovies culture methods can be referred to: first, the same species male and female mixed culture. That is, multiple male and female peacock fish of the same species are raised together in an aquarium. A way to allow them to mate freely to reproduce. Second, different types of male fish are raised separately, and the female fish are raised alone on the other side, and the equipment is matched according to the needs of the owner during the breeding period. Details to pay attention to for peacock fish bait: careful people can tell from the upward mouth of peacock fish that they are upper-water fish that eat floating bait. They can use almost all the food of other ordinary fish. Even the newly born peacock fish, but you should pay attention to the pollution of the water. The following are several specific aspects of raising peacock fish, which can be used as a reference. 1. Disinfect the fish tank before raising peacock fish. This may be the case with other fish. You can brush it with high concentration of potassium permanganate water, then soak the fish tank with low concentration potassium permanganate water for a day or so, or use salt water. 2. Don't bring home sick fish when you start choosing fish. Take the new fish home, at this time, you should notice that the water temperature in your fish tank has reached the temperature that is suitable for your small fish to grow. The temperature of your fish is 26 degrees plus or minus 1 degrees. Do not open the bag, put the bag into the fish tank and float for 10 to 20 minutes. Then pour the fish into the tank and do not feed them within three days. After that, it is best to feed the small fish twice a day within five minutes. 3. Change water frequently and filter it with a filter as far as possible. The water must be changed regularly. Change a small amount but more like a meal, an average of 2-3 weeks a week, 1 pound at a time. The drastic change in water quality has done great harm to the peacock fish. In addition, a thorough cleaning should be done at least once a year, and the peacock fish is still difficult to adapt to the new water, so it is necessary to retain about 1/2 of the old water to add new water. A few days before changing the water, you can start aerating the new water so that those harmful substances disappear, and pay attention to the oxygen consumption of small fish. if there are more fish, you have to increase the oxygen pump to give oxygen. 4. For newly born fish fry, let them get food in a short time. Use boiled egg yolk or dried water flea. Feed crushed egg yolk is easy to damage the water quality, eat the rest of the egg yolk should be sucked out in time; dry water flea is easy to buy, the price is very low, and it is not easy to damage the water quality. The bought dry water flea will be crushed, and the finer the better at the initial stage of feeding, but in the later stage, with the gradual growth of the larvae, it can be slightly thicker, the general principle is suitable for its caliber size, easy to eat. When it grows to a certain size, it can be fed into fish erbium material. At the beginning, you can raise some ordinary peacock fish, when you have some breeding experience, you can raise some good quality peacock fish, and you can also gradually improve your equipment, including adding filtering devices, placing thermometers and temperature control devices, arranging substrates, cultivating aquatic plants, etc., if you are interested, you can also carry out hybrid experiments according to different peacock fish, which may be amazing.
