Moonlight Butterfly
The name of plaice is relatively cold, but if you put it another way, it is also called flounder. I believe everyone knows something about it. Plaice rests on the sandy bottom of shallow seas and catches small fish and shrimps. They are particularly adapted to a benthic existence on the seabed. Because of their flat body. The eyes are on the upper side of the body, and the color on this side matches well with the surrounding environment. The lower side of their bodies is white. The body of the flounder has extremely fine scales. Flounder has only one dorsal fin, which extends almost from the new part to the tail fin. They mainly live in temperate waters and are important economic fish in temperate waters.
In feeding, we often complain that plaice are difficult to raise, so why is it so much more difficult to tame plaice for bait? Other types of seawater fish? It turns out that this mainly comes from the original feeding habits. Most other seawater fish are omnivorous. Omnivorous fish may eat algae, crustaceans, and even some soft bodies, while more difficult ones However, the food habits of disc fish are so specialized that they only eat soft bodies or hard corals.
1. Several aspects to pay attention to when raising plaice:
1. Temperature:
Its about The water temperature requirements are relatively high, and the temperature difference performance is relatively high. The daily temperature difference is generally not more than two degrees, and the normal temperature can be maintained at around 26-29 degrees Celsius.
2. pH:
It is relatively sensitive to pH, and generally its pH can be maintained between 8.0-8.4. The difference should not be too large. Nitrates should generally be maintained at 50PPM, not too high or too low.
3. Food:
Butterfly fish prefers small minced meat, shrimp meat and clam meat, which can be fed in turn for a long time. Otherwise, long-term feeding is simple. , the butterfly fish will develop anorexia.
4. Whether it is suitable for polyculture:
Butterfly fish can generally avoid mixing butterfly fish of the same species and size together to avoid attacks. There is no need to consider other types of butterfly fish.
When the white-kissed double-flag snapper encounters darkness, it will lie down with its belly in the sky. This is their custom. When encountering this situation, there is no need to be surprised. As long as there is sufficient luster, they will return to their normal swimming appearance in a few minutes.
5. Beware of fights between species of saucer fish
The fight between the saucer fish is also very brutal. The great man of the thorn fish shakes his head to let the thorn sting the fish, and hangs upside down to cut the fish with the tail spine. , the disc fish will raise its back spines to fight, and the scales can often be easily poked off. If left alone, the disc fish will die quickly, and it is easier for fish to fight fiercely among species. There are Pacific moonlight discs, and fake Herringbone, Indian three-room saucer, closed knife, even if it is put into the tank at the same time, it will be very dangerous. Also, be careful of the character of closed knife and love to clean other fish, which will often kill one fish, for example, other butterfly fish. If there is a bit of a wound on his body, he will peck at the rotten meat to make the wound aggravated, so be careful.
6. It is best not to breed in mixed cultures
If possible, it is best to raise all the saucer fish purely, but most people cannot do this, so they must at least separate an area in the main tank to raise other species of saucer fish. The biggest threat to the fish is that it eats the pellets too fast, and even some giant giants will drive the fish away. On the one hand, because of the seriousness of being driven out, and on the other hand, they eat less. Even if the fish eats the pellets, they will still eat it in the end. It will lead to illness, illness or even death. It is absolutely impossible to throw bait indiscriminately, which will only make the water quality worse but with little effect. It will make the strong fish fat and cause the water quality to reverse, causing more fish to become sick and die in the future.
2. Matters needing attention:
1. Beginner breeders and people who work hard are not suitable for raising plaice of different sizes. Because small plaice have small mouths and eat slowly, the bait is often eaten by big fish or those who eat it quickly. Small plaice under 3cm must be fed with fine bait several times a day.
2. Plaice like to peck at the parasites on other fish's bodies. If the fish being pecked seems to be injured, it is likely to make the other party's condition worse. In addition, the disease is contagious. If you pick up this pathogen, the fish itself will become sick. Therefore, it is best to isolate the sick fish. 3. Due to different species, some large plaice often cannot adapt immediately to the environment moved from the sea to the aquarium, especially the changes in food. At this time, the breeders are very patient in fishing and baiting the fish. Taming bait.
4. Feed plaice as much as possible with a variety of baits and avoid using simple feeds. .
5. Small sea anemones, corals and other invertebrates cannot be kept together with plaice. Because plaice feed on these invertebrates in the sea
6. Instructions are required. For those who keep white-kissed flag snappers, this fish likes to lie down with its belly in the air. This is their habit and is not surprising as long as there is sufficient light, they will return to normal swimming in a few minutes. Appearance.
