It is said that silver dragons are easy to raise. Why can't they live?

How to raise the arowana well, the raising of the arowana is very simple, and the price of the arowana is still very cheap, so many people like to raise the arowana very much, but it does not mean that they will raise it. Many people do not know how to raise the arowana, and often the arowana will die soon.

Silver arowana is simple and convenient to raise, and the price of silver arowana is very cheap, so it is often used as hand fish by people. Even so, the silver arowana's sparkling scales and the elegant back three fins undoubtedly add a unique elegant demeanor to the arowana world and are loved by people. The following editor would like to introduce a few points for attention from the breeding of silver arowana:

1. The suitable tank size of silver arowana.

What is the maximum size of arowana? Under normal circumstances, silver arowana can grow to the 60cm size in one year, reaching the standard of mature arowana. The size of living space determines the growth of silver arowana, so the breeding of silver arowana must first choose the appropriate tank size. Strictly speaking, the fish tank suitable for the growth of silver arowana should be not less than 1.5 meters in length, 0.6 meters in width and 0.6 meters in height. For fish tanks 1.2 meters long and 0.5 meters wide to raise silver dragons, it will lead to physical deformation, mental tension and other conditions.

2. Suitable water quality environment of silver arowana.

In terms of water quality, silver arowana can adapt to weak acid soft water, the pH value between 5.8 and 8.0 can grow normally, and the pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 is more conducive to the growth and development of silver arowana, and the hardness can be maintained at 3-12. The feeding of silver arowana has to go through trapped water at the beginning of the tank, so that the content of nitrite in the water is reduced to 0, and a complete nitrification system is established in the fish tank to maintain good water quality.

3. The requirement of water temperature of silver arowana

The climate is changeable all the year round, and the temperature also changes with the seasons, which will affect the water temperature of the fish tank. In autumn, winter and summer, appropriate heat preservation or cooling measures should be taken to maintain the balance of water temperature in the fish tank. No matter how the seasons change, the breeding of silver arowana should pay attention to keeping the water temperature at 25-28 degrees.

4. Water change of silver arowana

The change of water will lead to changes in the pH and temperature of the water quality in the fish tank, resulting in the inadaptability of the silver arowana to the change of water quality, resulting in the phenomenon that the silver arowana does not eat, lie down in the tank and even die, so the breeding of the silver arowana should pay attention to changing the water in an appropriate amount. Before changing water, the tap water must be dried for 2-3 days to remove chlorine from the water. Silver arowana is more appropriate to change water 20% and 30% per week.

5. Feeding of silver arowana

What does silver arowana eat? Small fish and shrimp are naturally the best choice. Loach, crickets, grasshoppers and other insects can be used as supplementary food to feed the silver arowana, but remember not to feed too much, causing the silver dragon fish not to eat, especially barley insects. Some people care about what silver arowana eats, and some even wonder whether silver arowana can be eaten. It's unimaginable. Back to the point, due to improper feeding caused by the common disease silver arowana eye loss should be prevented from childhood, eye loss is a very common phenomenon in the process of feeding silver arowana.

6. The illumination of silver arowana

Like people, silver arowana also has time to rest, fully enjoy the light during the day and have a good rest at night. Silver arowana breeding should make the daily light time up to 8-10 hours.
