Hello aquarists, I am a fish farmer, and everyone can easily raise water, happy and happy to raise fish, please pay attention to aquarists!

At the turn of the current season, certain small beings appear to be particularly active, and may bring these small bugs into our fish tanks when we buy new fish or feed live food.

Many aquarists are very headaches about this, and always want to ask what insecticides can be solved in the fish tank?

Small bugs such as leeches and planarians are found in the fish tank, don't rush to drug, one trick to solve it

Even if the tank is cleared, you can take out the ornamental fish, as long as you can kill the bugs.

It is absolutely not recommended to put a variety of insecticidal drugs in the fish tank, one is that the amount is not easy to grasp, and the harm to the water quality and ornamental fish is very large

I don't know why new aquarists, as long as they talk about any problems with ornamental fish, the first thing that comes to mind is always a variety of drugs, in fact, this problem has been repeatedly emphasized by many big coffee makers, we are raising fish, not to be a veterinarian.

These fierce insecticides, one is that there will be a fatal blow to the water quality, and secondly, it is difficult to grasp the dosage, whether there is residue, is there any harm to the later ornamental fish into the tank? We can only try the life of ornamental fish.

Therefore, try to avoid drugging in the fish tank.

Most of the soft bugs have a fatal characteristic, that is, they are afraid of salt

But any aquarists who have been exposed to small bugs such as leeches as children should understand a common sense, they are extremely afraid of salt.

Small bugs such as leeches and planarians are found in the fish tank, don't rush to drug, one trick to solve it

Including planarians, ants, earthworms, even protein worms, fish lice and the like, are the same, because most of these small bugs rely on skin breathing, once a large amount of salt is added, not only can immediately block their respiration, but also make them quickly dehydrated and die.

Such video introductions abound on the Internet, and I don't understand why we should think about drugs.

Ignoring the salt that is readily available?

Besides, salt is basically harmless to water quality, even if there is harm, replace it with water several times, it will be completely diluted, and it is absolutely harmless to ornamental fish.

As for the dosage problem, of course, the greater the concentration, the better, this depends on personal practice, since we have enough patience, the ornamental fish are fished out, clear the tank, then what are you afraid of? The concentration is larger.

Including fish lice, at a concentration of three to five percent, they will also dehydrate and die, or fall off the bottom of the tank, and then we will replace the water at the bottom and pump them out, which is a case that I have personally practiced.

It's all a good way to do it, it just requires us to have a little patience.

Another trick is that the high concentration of potassium permanganate can also kill some small bugs

Regarding the wonderful use of potassium permanganate in ornamental fish breeding, I have also said it many times, and we can also see the use of potassium permanganate in many videos of big coffee for the quarantine and treatment of various ornamental fish body surface problems, and the effect is very good.

There is not a single case of anything that is destructive to water quality.

Then, since we have put the ornamental fish has been proposed, it is completely possible to solve this problem through a high concentration of potassium permanganate, and then quickly reduce it, you can also change the water moderately, the concentration is larger, soaked for half an hour, it is enough.

Some bugs may be stubborn, but they can also be salted.

These methods, although not necessarily the mildest, are much safer than any insecticidal drug.

There are too many aquarists, because the insecticidal drugs in the fish tank, in the end, it is not worth the loss, I will not say more.

I am a veteran of fish farming, more ornamental fish problems please pay attention, thank you!
