How does parrot fish turn white and lie in the corner? How to solve it 1. The water temperature is too low

1. Reason: The parrot fish is still lying in the corner because the water temperature is too low. Parrot fish are tropical fish and like higher water temperature. If the water temperature in which they live is low or the temperature difference is too large, their body color will change and their activity will decrease.

2. Solution: The breeder needs to adjust the water temperature, and it is best to keep the water temperature between 25-28 ℃ with a heating rod. This can not only improve the water temperature in which they live, but also reduce the occurrence of too large temperature difference.

2. Illness

1. Reason: Parrot fish turning white and hiding in a corner may be caused by illness. Common colds, enteritis, etc. will lead to listlessness and dim body color.

2. Solution: Breeders need symptomatic treatment according to their other manifestations. If their feces are abnormal, they are suffering from enteritis, and breeders need to treat them with oxytetracycline or furazolidone. If they are short of breath and listless, they may have a cold, and the breeder needs to use penicillin or chloramphenicol for treatment.

3. The water quality is too poor

1. Reason: The parrot fish is white and still lying in the corner. It may be that the water quality is too poor. For example, if the content of ammonia or chlorine in water is high, parrot fish will turn white and stop moving in an uncomfortable environment.

2. Solution: Breeders need to change water in time to reduce the high content of chlorine and ammonia in water. Install another filter to slow down the deterioration of water quality.
