How to raise traffic light fish?

The traffic light fish is shrouded in turquoise brilliance, with a bright turquoise belt from head to tail and a red belt below the rear part of the body. There is the laudatory name of "queen" in tropical fish, which is the most popular species of tropical fish. Let's take a look at how to raise traffic light fish.

Breeding environment of traffic light fish

Traffic light fish mainly live in the black and clear waters of the Solimonis River in South America. Its habitat is a typical tropical rain forest climate. It is hot and rainy all the year round, the temperature is between 20: 26 ℃, the pH value is between 5.0 and 7.0 (slightly acidic), and the GH value is between 1: 2. It is best to be raised in soft water, but after many generations of breeding, it can also accept the hardness of tap water.

Breeding methods of traffic light fish

The traffic light fish entered the sexual maturity period at the age of 6 months, and the best breeding period was from 8 to 10 months old. when the abdomen of the female fish was dilated, the female fish was separated from the male fish for several days, fed enough food, and then paired into the box. The breeding water quality should be pH5.6~6.8,GH1~3.5 °, the water temperature should be 25 ℃, and the artificial fish nest should be put into the breeding tank. The breeding tank should be shaded and kept quiet. A female fish can lay about 150 eggs, and after spawning, the parent fish will be fished out to avoid swallowing eggs and hatch fish fry in 24 hours.

Sub-fish management of traffic light fish

Traffic light caviar fish small, swimming less, bait to the mouth to eat. After the opening bait, the egg yolk water was sifted with 200 mesh nets and fed with straws one by one. After a period of time, when the larvae swam normally, they were fed with egg yolk ash water screened by 150 mesh nets. The larvae grow slowly and take longer to eat egg yolk ash water than other small species. In addition, the hatching water quality of larvae is very soft, and the water temperature is completely different from that of daily feeding. When the larvae grow to 5mm, they should be moved into a large tank and raised in a large tank, paying attention to the process of adapting to the water quality.

Prevention and control of white spot disease of fish with traffic lights

1. If the water temperature is raised above 28 degrees, the melon insects will stop reproducing and will die on their own if they last for more than three days. This method is very effective and is recommended as the first choice.

2. Soak in 2ppm mercurous acetate and mercurous nitrate solution. The water temperature is below 15 degrees, soak for 3 hours, soak at 15 degrees 20 degrees for 2 hours. After each immersion, the fish should be gently washed with water for 0.5 minutes for 1 hour to wash away the parasites attached to the fish and improve the curative effect. The milder ones should be soaked twice (once a day), and the seriously ill ones should be increased one or two times. This method has a high cure rate, but it is more troublesome.

3. The mixture of 0.05ppm malachite and 25ppm formaldehyde solution twice a day can have a certain curative effect.

4. Soaking diseased fish with 1% salt water for several days also has a certain curative effect.

Note: chemical methods to treat fish disease drugs, are highly toxic, use must pay attention to safety, protection.
