CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to grow aquatic plants with tropical fish in summer

1. How to grow aquatic plants with tropical fish in summer

Aquatic plants must photosynthesize to grow, that is, the chloroplasts of aquatic plants use carbon dioxide to synthesize sugars and oxygen under light conditions. Therefore, to meet the needs of aquatic plants for photosynthesis, there must be appropriate light, sufficient carbon dioxide and sufficient aquatic plant nutrients, so that aquatic plants can grow healthily.

1. Suitable lighting: You can simulate the way sunlight is irradiated, use red, blue, green three-band full-spectrum aquarium lamps, or metal halide bulbs, etc. Continuous lighting for 8-10 hours a day, and the principle is to place as many groups of lamps as possible.

2. Adequate carbon dioxide: Aquatic plants must have carbon dioxide to carry out photosynthesis. When there is insufficient carbon dioxide in the water, the aquatic plants will stop growing or die, especially the more difficult red aquatic plants, which need sufficient carbon dioxide to survive. Therefore, the carbon dioxide concentration in the water should be maintained between 10-20mg/I to allow the aquatic plants to grow healthily.

3. Sufficient water plant nutrition: The chloroplasts of water plants must rely on all necessary inorganic nutrients to develop well and maximize photosynthesis efficiency, so we must regularly add water plant liquid fertilizer and root fertilizer!

In summer, the temperature is high, so how to lower the water temperature is a problem. If you have enough money, just buy a water cooler. If your budget is limited, then buy a small fan to blow towards the water surface. In addition, because water evaporates quickly in summer, you should pay attention to replenishing water in time.

Other routine maintenance remains the same.

In summer, you can turn the tank over. Take out the stones and wash them clean. Put fertilizer underneath. Replant the plants. You can't move them when it's cold. If you don't want to move them, just leave them alone. The water plants will not die if they have sunlight. Or you can put some granular fertilizer at the roots of the plants.

2. How to configure water plants in tropical fish tanks

It is of course good to grow aquatic plants, a quarter of the water body is enough

(1) Aquatic plants can provide oxygen to fish. Fish can only grow well if they have sufficient oxygen.

(2) Water plants can provide a place for fish to take refuge. Some fish like to fight, such as the red arrow and peacock fish you raise. When a weak fish is chased by a strong fish, it can just hide in the water plants so that the strong fish can't find it, and it will escape.

(3) Water plants can provide good food for fish. Sometimes when fish are hungry and can’t find anything to eat, they will eat water plants. Water plants are rich in vitamins, so there is no need to worry about fish lacking vitamins.

(4) A fish tank with aquatic plants is very beautiful, but the sand at the bottom of the tank must be thick to completely bury the roots of the aquatic plants and ensure that the aquatic plants can stand upright in the tank. In addition, the aquatic plant tank must have light (sunlight or fluorescent light) for at least 8 hours a day, otherwise the aquatic plants will rot and affect the water quality.

3. Can tropical fish grow aquatic plants?

I don't know what kind of tropical fish you bought. How big is your fish tank at home? If it's an ordinary tank, you don't need to put water plants... If you want to put some to make it look good, just go to the fish and insect market and buy the common water plants. They are quite cheap. There are not many varieties of water plants. And it doesn't matter what kind you put. If it's a small and gentle tropical fish, water plants are a better match. For beginners, it is recommended to buy new negative water plants, such as small water figs, green chrysanthemums, etc., which do not require strong light. In addition, it is best to add some liquid fertilizer. As for beginners, there is no need to use mud, which is too expensive and difficult to take care of. You can put some bottom sand for the water plants to take root, or you don't need to use it.

4. What kind of aquatic plants are best for tropical fish tanks?

"There are many aquatic plants suitable for tropical fish, such as crown grass and comb-like willow grass. Pay attention to the living environment when raising them. Planting aquatic plants in tropical fish boxes can not only enhance the atmosphere and increase the beauty, but also photosynthesize under light, absorb carbon dioxide exhaled by tropical fish, release oxygen needed by tropical fish, and increase dissolved oxygen in the water. In addition, aquatic plants can also absorb and decompose nitrogen in the urine and feces of tropical fish, purifying the water."

5. Can aquatic plants be grown in tropical fish tanks?

You can grow grass: But don’t your parrots and maps bite the kissing fish?

It’s not that it’s difficult to raise them, it’s just that it’s recommended that you don’t raise them on grass, because the fish you raise are not suitable for growing them on grass.

A real grass tank should be filled with small fish (peacock, red and green lights, silver screen lights, black Mary, drinking Mary, moonlight, etc.). This kind of small fish is most suitable for growing grass, and this kind of fish farming is called ecological fish farming (ecological tank)

Yes, but if you want to raise a map parrot, a bare tank will have a better viewing effect. Aquatic plants are generally used to raise small tropical fish. They are not only beautiful but also provide them with shelter.

It is recommended that kissing fish should not be kept together with carnivorous map fish and parrot fish. When these two fish grow up, they will easily attack kissing fish.
