2. Why do Koi scales flare? 1. Fluctuation in water quality: Koi scales flare may be caused by fluctuations in water quality, that is, changing the water too frequently. Fish farming requires changing water, but changing the water too much or too often will also be detrimental to the health of the fish. Usually, changing the water once a week is sufficient, unless the fish tank is relatively small and needs to be changed every few days. Do not change more than one-third of the total water volume each time, generally changing one-fifth is enough.

2. Changes in water temperature: As a cold-blooded animal, fish have a certain ability to adapt to temperature, but a large temperature difference will make them uncomfortable, resulting in frying of scales. Therefore, you must pay attention to temperature control at ordinary times. You can use a heating rod to maintain the temperature and keep the water temperature above 20℃, which will also have a good prevention and control effect on some diseases.

3. Bacterial infection: In addition to the above two reasons, bacterial infection can also cause koi scales to explode. What you need to do at this time is to use drugs to kill the bacteria. At the same time, you should also pay attention to changing the water to improve the water quality as soon as possible and reduce the number of bacteria in the water, which is also helpful for the recovery of the fish.

2. The belly and dace of the brocade fish are swollen. Will it be okay if it is kept with other fish?

The general pregnancy period of guppies is 35 days. There are several possibilities for your fish: 1. Low water temperature will cause the pregnancy period to become longer. 2. Guppies have 4 uteri, which may not be fertilized or give birth together, so some guppies may still have a big belly after giving birth. The number of puppies in a single uterus is relatively small, and they may be eaten without being discovered. Suggestion: If the back of the female peacock's belly near the anus is black (some peacocks are not black before giving birth) and protruding, it means that she may be about to give birth. If conditions permit, you can fish her out and raise her separately or buy an isolation box for breeding to isolate her. If it is not convenient to separate the tanks, you can buy some water plants where small fish can hide. Looking forward to your little peacock giving birth!

3. Why did the ornamental fish Sandao ling change color?

It may be because of the bait you feed. For example, if some fish want to develop color, they will feed more dried shrimps or something. Astaxanthin will help the fish develop color. It may also be that the color changes during the growth process. If you still don't know, you can continue to ask me. I hope you will accept it.

1. What is the matter with Koi scale frying?

The main reason for the koi scales to explode is due to infection with Pseudomonas punctata. Pseudomonas punctata is a conditionally pathogenic bacterium, that is, a bacterium that may cause disease under certain conditions. The symptoms of koi scales to explode are swelling and roughness on the body surface of the diseased fish, some scales open outward like pine cones, and the base of these scales is edematous, and translucent or bloody liquid flows out. Some diseased fish also have congestion at the base of the fins and skin, bulging eyes, etc. At the same time, these diseased fish move slowly, have difficulty breathing, and are slow to react.

2. Treatment of koi fish scale frying

1. You can soak in salt water, the method is the same as the treatment of congestion, which has a good therapeutic effect.

2. Treat with furacilin. Dissolve 1 gram of furacilin in every 10 kilograms of water and soak the fish for about 20-30 minutes.

3. Treat with metronidazole. Select 3-5 vials of metronidazole, dissolve it in 10 kg of water, soak the fish for about 10-15 minutes, or soak the fish in 0.02 sodium bicarbonate solution for 10-15 minutes.

4. Do a good job of managing koi over the winter, shorten the koi's feeding period, and when the temperature rises in spring, feed some live bait such as water fleas and earthworms to enhance the koi's resistance and reduce the occurrence of scale explosion.

3. How to prevent koi scale blasting

1. Keep the water clean, maintain an effective nitrifying bacteria system, and allow the water to have sufficient sunlight to prevent the koi from scaling.

2. In seasons when water temperature changes greatly and fish diseases are prevalent, the fish body can be regularly soaked in 3% sodium bicarbonate solution and 2% salt solution for about 5-10 minutes.
