Hello aquarists, I am a fish farmer, and everyone can easily raise water, loose and loose fish, please pay attention to aquarists!
Due to the long-term constant temperature fish farming, some small life will inevitably appear in the fish tank, including protein worms, nematodes, small fish worms and the like, especially small fish worms, some aquarists like to deliberately cultivate, some aquarists have headaches when they see them, and many new aquarists do not know what they are?
This round body, with tentacles, jumping around in the fish tank of small bugs, most of them are fish bugs, which is what we call water fleas, there are actually many types, we are used to calling it small red worms or qing bungee, anyway are fish bugs.
Small ornamental fish, goldfish meals, medium and large ornamental fish do not like, because do not like to eat
This small fish insect, for raising a variety of small ornamental fish, including goldfish aquarists, that is a treasure, extremely rare, if the existence of this small fish insect is found in the fish tank, we can fish them out in small quantities, find a separate container to cultivate.
What fish manure, chicken manure, yeast powder, put a little bit into it, the fish worms will soon burst the tank, and then moderately fish to feed the fish, this is not a difficult thing.
The difficulty is that in the fish tank of medium and large carnivorous ornamental fish, a large number of these little guys have been found, and we want to deal with them will be very troublesome, but they are not afraid of salt, not afraid of what potassium permanganate, and they are not nematodes.
It is of course wise to put in small ornamental fish to eat them, but it is troublesome because the big fish eat the small fish
We say that to deal with these small bugs, it is best not to easily drug, because the amount of medicine is extremely difficult to master, especially the more high-end ornamental fish, once the drug is not careful, for a few small bugs, their own ornamental fish easily play dead, this is not worth the loss of a thing, so we do not fear trouble.
Although it is said that big fish eat small fish, we can set up an isolation net in the fish tank, which is a good method, and then there is a fatal drawback of small fish worms, that is, phototropism.
We can make good use of this feature of them.
Using the phototropism of fish insects, they are caught or fed to small fish
The phototropism of fish and insects does not mean that the whole tank is bright and they will swim to the surface, but that most places are dark, and with only a faint light source, they will quickly gather at the light source.
We can take advantage of this feature, such as placing peacocks, Marys, manlongs, wheat ears and other small fish on the side of the isolation net, which depends on the size of our medium and large ornamental fish, and it is better not to isolate.
Then turn on a small night light, the light is weak, preferably the kind with only one beam of light, placed on the side of the small ornamental fish, the fish worms are regardless of the size of the ornamental fish, they will only look for the light, and then they will quickly move closer to the light, and then they will be eaten by the small ornamental fish, which is the simplest way.
In addition, you can use a thinner density of fishing nets, this net has to sell, specializing in fishing for small fish insects, take advantage of the light when they are densely packed in one place, quickly fish them out, repeated fishing a few times, soon they will disappear in the fish tank, this depends on the individual to operate and observe.
The key is to carefully examine the direction of the fish and insects and to be patient.
I am a veteran of fish farming, more ornamental fish problems please pay attention, thank you!
