Hello aquarists, I am a fish breeder, more ornamental fish breeding, breeding practice knowledge, please pay attention to. Let's raise water simply and raise fish easily!
With the popularity of native ornamental fish, many aquarists have fallen in love with an otherwise humble small native fish called the trout.
The reason is because there are many kinds of salmon, including not only mackerel, but also a variety of scorpionfish, which can also be mixed with the salmon, which is worth our continuous search.
Another reason is that the body color of the trout fish is gorgeous, there is a certain group swimming effect, they feed fiercely, they are full of vitality in the fish tank, and another point is that they can coexist with the river mussel in the fish tank, which adds a certain amount of fun to us to raise them.
However, there are also many aquats who react, in the wild through the wild harvest of the fish, their body color can be beautiful, at that time, it seems, it is silver shiny, absolutely bright, but as long as they enter the fish tank, everything has changed:
Their body color began to become dull or whitish, close to colorless, some appeared sharp fear, for a long time there was no state at all, and finally had to give up breeding, because it looked more and more uninteresting, like a group of white striped fish, then it was better to raise wheat ear fish, where would this reason be?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > most native fish caught in the wild, and only in the wild can the best hair color be achieved</h1>
For this problem, the fish farming old way is also deeply touched, the other day I also fished some salmon, when they just left the water, even the fishing friends who do not know how to raise fish next to them, they also think they are indeed very beautiful, originally only know that they are some small miscellaneous fish, mixed in the wheat ears, do not look at a glance, directly thrown back to the pond.
I didn't expect that they could also be raised as ornamental fish in the fish tank, and searching on the Internet, some varieties, the price is not very cheap.
As a result, when I put them in the fish tank with a white background, they instantly lost their original body color and luster, leaving only a pair of red eyes, which is still the case today.
Actually? If we keep them in this bright white background fish tank, they will never achieve the best body color, which is a normal phenomenon.
New aquarists may not know that if we only catch a few sturgeon fish occasionally, mix with other ornamental fish in the tank, and don't care about the background tone of the tank, they are almost not colored.
If we are more careful, we can observe that they live in the pond in the wild environment, the bottom sand is also dark, and only one place can see the light, that is, the surface of the pond, surrounded by opaque or shimmering light.
Only this wild environment can create the best hair color for most native fish.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > a transparent, white background aquarium, ornamental fish will naturally go with the flow and change the protective color</h1>
The reason is that in this white background aquarium with four sides of the light, it will make the trout that originally survive in the wild feel extremely unsuitable for the environment, a psychological disorder that may appear to be afraid and fearful, especially when their group size is very small.
Another reason is that they instinctively want to merge with their surroundings out of the habit of avoiding predators.
Therefore, the body color can never be distinct, and if we add a brighter light, they will be more afraid.
When I fish for trout in the wild, because the nets are placed in a very shallow part of the water, they can be seen swimming and feeding on the surface of the water, they do not dislike the sunlight, nor do they dare to go to the upper layers of the water, in other words, moderate sunlight exposure will be more conducive to their hair color, but the water quality of their overall life is still dominated by dark tones.
We can also browse many of the more wonderful pictures of sturgeon on the Internet, without exception, the fish tanks are dominated by dark colors.
There are a lot of background paper is black, the light will not be too strong, and most of them will be laid with dark shades of sand, which will help their emotional stability, and can also be moderately landscaped in the fish tank, for example, place stones, sunken wood, etc., so that the water color looks a little yellow, similar to the South American style of the fish tank style, of course, you can also plant aquatic weeds appropriately.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > must be grouped to reach a certain number of breeding, coupled with a dark background, they must reach the best state</h1>
The trout is a small native fish that is easy to compete for the wind and jealousy, they are very aggressive, they like to swim in groups, obsessed with the larger group atmosphere, and there are various battles hidden in them.
Only when the males fight fiercely, the hair color of the salmon will become more and more colorful.
This phenomenon is not limited to the salmon, including many small native fish such as broadfin carp, gobies, mudskippers, etc., which is the truth that the more fierce the fight, the better their hair color will be.
And for the sturgeon, there is one more to add, that is:
With a slightly higher rearing density, they will be more stable and easier to reach optimal condition.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > do I need to add river mussels? The question varies from person to person</h1>
The question of whether to add river mussels to the tank for raising salmon varies from person to person.
The breeding time of the trout is about April to June of each year, and their reproduction needs to coexist with the river mussel, about this introduction, my other articles have, and because of the stimulation of the river mussel, they are more likely to be in heat.
However, not all aquarists can raise good river mussels in the fish tank.
They are filter-feeding organisms, raising them also requires certain skills, for their individual selection, but also with the size of the fish tank, water body, etc., otherwise, it may cause the death of river mussels, and finally become a tank of smelly water, even the trout fish hanging together.
Therefore, in the size and number of clams to choose, we have to pay special attention, if you do not grasp this degree, simply do not raise, it is very likely that in a very short period of time, resulting in the entire fish tank all the fish balls are destroyed.
Of course, there are also many aquarists who raise river mussels very well, and achieve symbiosis with trout, both of which can be effectively reproduced, this problem must not be greedy, a little is enough.
The practice of many new aquarists is: putting one or two river mussels in the fish tank is too little, putting seven or eight river mussels is not too much, I don't know in the end, we are raising fish or raising river mussels, resulting in water quality can not be treated.
Therefore, raising trout, to achieve the best hair color and the best state is large, can not breed is small, we can not go to the cart before the horse rearing upside down.
I am a veteran of fish farming, more ornamental fish problems please pay attention, thank you!
