Goldfish have a long history of breeding ornamental, the world's first written records about goldfish from the Three Kingdoms period.
In the traditional concept, keeping goldfish can bring good fortune to the family.
Nowadays, more and more people are keeping goldfish.
Because it is easy to raise and very ornamental.
In fact, it is not difficult to raise goldfish well, we just need to deal with the water quality, water temperature, diet problems can be.
Goldfish can even live up to 10 years if they are kept well.
If you are planning to keep goldfish or want to learn the techniques of keeping them.
Then let's learn together.
1.Preparations to be done before putting in the tank
Don't put your newly bought goldfish into a clean tank right away.
We need to do some measures, otherwise you will find the goldfish die within a few days of keeping.
Adapt to the water temperature: In order to let the goldfish adapt to the water temperature of the tank in advance, you should change the water temperature of the water bag first.
You need to put the bag into the tank.
But don't stuff it all in, just let the bottom of the bag touch the water of the tank.
This can make the water temperature of the bag gradually and the fish tank water temperature to reach the same.
Disinfect the fish: After getting used to the the temperature, the next step is to disinfect the goldfish.
First prepare a container, pour the goldfish into clean water, and then use potassium permanganate or large salt.
Let the goldfish soak for a while and then take it out.
It should be noted that potassium permanganate has a certain degree of toxicity, so the amount must be small.
Pour water repeatedly: The last step is to scoop some water from the fish tank into the bag every few minutes.
Use the water in the bag to scoop out some into the fish tank, repeat several times.
There is nothing wrong with the goldfish, you can put it inside the fish tank.
2. Pay attention to disinfection and light
Fish tank should be cleaned once a week.
If it is "ecological fish tank", you don't need to clean it, because the ecosystem in the fish tank will be self-circulating.
If it is a conventional fish tank, we can soak it in potassium permanganate for a period of time, and then wash it with water.
In addition, the environment of feeding or viewing should be noted, goldfish should survive in alternating light and dark environment.
Light can improve the pigment cells on the surface of the fish body and make the goldfish more beautiful.
3. Pay attention to water temperature and water quality We have to keep goldfish and often pay attention to the water temperature changes.
Fish animals can only live in the water, you can imagine how important the water is for goldfish.
So, avoid alternating hot and cold water temperature, and when changing water, the temperature difference between new water and old water should not exceed 3°C.
For goldfish, the water temperature is too high will lead to less oxygen in the water, but also will breed more bacteria.
Keeping goldfish is actually a discipline.
