People who raise arhat fish want to raise fish with good color and big head.
So how to raise arhats?
My domestic arhat will tell you my experience and method now. If you still don't understand, just send me a message.
Start: I used four methods, and now my little fish head is not bad.
1, proper lighting (if there is no sunlight, lighting is ok, I use lighting)
2. I often sit in front of the fish tank to tease it when I am free. Or put a mirror in front of it and let it bite. This is mainly to stimulate it.
I will put some small stones like coral sand in the jar for it to bite and play with, also to stimulate it.
4. Adequate nutrition. Needless to say, this is feeding. Try to make it full and eat well. Twice a day, within five minutes each time, or take the method of eating less and eating more meals, because your fish is a little arhat. )
Color:
The above scheme also helps to color it. In fact, coloring is to give fish more food containing a lot of shrimp lycopene, such as dried shrimp bought in the market, dry food containing shrimp lycopene, and sometimes I feed some arctic fish.
Feeding live food can also help fish to start coloring, but I didn't feed live food at first, because Lohan's gastrointestinal function is very poor, and he will get enteritis if he is not careful, and it is difficult to cure. My little fish has to go through it once, and it will be cured in about a month and almost die. The owner of the fish shop said that Lohan had enteritis and the mortality rate was high, so he was afraid to feed him alive.
The above methods are helpful for the introduction of arhat, but not 100% effective. Because of genetic problems, not all arhats are big and good. The probability of getting started is only about 5% to 10%.
Also, all my arhats are raised by one person. If you put two arhats in a water tank with a glass plate in the middle, it will also help arhats to start coloring.
Why does teasing Lohan often help to start coloring? Because once Luohan is stimulated by the outside world, what kind of substance will be secreted in the body (I don't know what kind of substance), which is the key to Luohan's coloring.
