Guppy

1. Deterioration of water quality

The biggest cause of water quality deterioration is water pollution from overfeeding and the accumulation of harmful substances from dirty filters. As long as the daily feeding is appropriate, as well as proper filter cleaning and water quality adjustment, this can be prevented. Although it is necessary to change the water properly, do not change the water in large quantities, as this will harm the guppies, so be careful. Excessive removal of the filter also washes away the multiplying filter bacteria, which leads to the deterioration of the water quality.

2. Changes in water temperature

Guppy is a thermophile and will change its body temperature with the surrounding temperature. Whether the water temperature is high or low, it will hinder the normal operation of the fish's body, especially if the water temperature rises or falls, it is the biggest fatal injury to the guppies. As a result, the metabolism in the body is not smooth, and the appetite is also low and will be weakened. It is also necessary to pay attention to the excessive drop in the morning and evening of the season.

3. Rough contact with the fish body

The surface of the guppy's body is particularly delicate and easily damaged, so be careful when picking it up with a net. Be careful, otherwise once the body surface is damaged, bacteria will invade from the wound and become infected. Do not damage the fish with your fingernails if you do not use a net to pick it up by hand. Please pay special attention.

4. Diseases brought in

Guppies, among the reasons that are easy to get sick, it is estimated that the largest proportion is the infection of other fish.
