Many people have raised guppies fish and said that guppies are not easy to raise at all, and they will die automatically after a period of time. If it is used wrongly, how can the wrong feeding method feed the fish, and if you are not careful, the fish will easily die. So what are the common mistakes in feeding our daily life?

Mistake 1: Mixed breeding

Many friends will have such an experience, how can a good fish appear in a tank What's wrong with the situation? Especially the fish raised at home have no external pathogens at all. How can the tank be brought into the tank and it is easy to cause problems? Yes, this situation often occurs, what is the main reason?

In fact, it is very simple. Everyone has different ways of raising fish, and the water quality of each region is different, so the environment that fish adapt to is also different. And other factors, the water environment of each tank will also be different. The problem brought about by these differences is that the environment in which the fish grows is different, and the environment is also a major factor that directly affects the flora of the fish. For each fish in the water body, its body flora index is relatively fixed, so in another It is normal for a species to develop stress or even disease in an environment that does not meet the conditions of its body flora.

Mistake 2: Random drug administration

Now there are many aquarists who are at a loss when they have problems, blindly use drugs, and some even get sick Indiscriminate medical treatment. Indiscriminate use of qi, not only the fish disease was not cured, but the loss was not small, and it was very sad. In fact, it is easy to say that it is easy to treat fish diseases, but it is difficult to say that it is difficult. What is the disease?

What disease does the fish have? This question depends on your own understanding of the fish disease. There are many fish diseases whose surface symptoms are basically the same, but the pathology is very different. ... So when your fish is sick, don't give any medicine indiscriminately! You must understand the principle of prescribe the right medicine, so as to play the role of medicine to cure the disease. If you do not carefully analyze the symptoms, it is very likely that your favorite fish will be poisoned and dysbacteriosis due to improper medication, which is tantamount to worsening the situation. Heaven killer.

Mistake 3: Mistakes in Reproduction

Attention should be paid to the breeding of guppies: due to the complexity of the strains and species of guppies , It is easy to cause reproductive confusion when male and female guppies of different strains are mixed together. Therefore, in order to obtain pure offspring, when raising guppies, different species of guppies should be isolated and cultured according to the breeding requirements. Specifically, there are two methods:

1. Mixed-breeding of the same species: that is, the multi-tailed male and female guppies of the same species are co-raised in an aquarium. A method of letting them mate freely to produce offspring. It should be noted that different breeds should not be raised together to avoid impure offspring strains (except if you want to create a new breed of course).

2. Different breeds of males and females are kept separately: that is, the males of different breeds are raised separately on one side, the females are raised separately on the other side, and suitable males and females are selected during breeding. cylinder. A breeding method that avoids damage to broodstock caused by over-mating and maintains a pure line of offspring.

Mistake 4: Daily Care

Several reasons that lead to tropical fish getting sick and dying:

1. Violent changes in water temperature—— - The best temperature for tropical fish to survive is 25°C, but the temperature requirements of different species are different, some are as high as 30°C, and some prefer 20°C. Therefore, on average, 25°C is a generally acceptable temperature. In addition, drastic changes in water temperature should be avoided. Generally, the allowable temperature range is 2 degrees.

2. The stocking density is too high—many people see that aquariums can put a lot of cute fish in one In the fish tank, so many fish are raised in the fish tank at home. This way of raising, no matter what kind of fish it is, it will die. If you are raising a variety of different types of fish, you must consider the space for each fish and reduce the number of fish. No matter what kind of fish, there are many small fish in the tank, which is by no means a good thing. The principle of raising tropical fish is very similar to that of raising goldfish. It requires a wide water surface and a normal ratio with the number of raised fish to ensure that the tropical fish have sufficient oxygen supply.

3. Types of feed---The feeding habits of tropical fish vary according to species, and can be roughly divided into three categories: animal, plant and omnivorous. Therefore, we must understand the type of fish in the tank, what kind of food they like to eat, and classify and raise them.

4. Diseases—Tropical fish get sick for many reasons, including infection from purchased diseased fish, white spot disease caused by too low temperature, and water quality due to spoilage of food residues or decomposition of fish feces. Caused by etc.

It is necessary to be patient when raising any ornamental fish. The guppy is very adaptable. In the process of normal raising, the breeder only needs to pay attention to keeping the water quality and water temperature clean, and actively treat the guppy when it is sick. I believe your guppies must be dazzling.
