METHODS TO HELP THE FISH ADAPTATION TO NEW ENVIRONMENT


     (from 7guppy )

    The first step, you have to prepare your water tank as follows: get a glass tank or barrels, tubs, buckets or anything can loaded clean water (preferably water or well water is not acidic). Add a little grain of salt (not iodized salt) about 2 tablespoons for 20 liters of water. Then take to outdoor one day before buying fish.
    Next, when buying fish, the way you make it adaptable to your water is particularly important. The following experience will be of great to help new players avoid the loss of money and time ... When buying fish you should a little extra water of the tank where the fish you buy are living.

THE FIRST DAY to bring them go home, you prepare a small tank of about 20 x 15 x 15 (LxWxH) as the glue of betta then load extra water from the shop , move the fish in the bag to the tank gently  and place it up a little tall, to remove impurities later. Note that you do not pour the water in home into tank because of seeing the water was turbid. This step is very important because the fish can be shocked and fish will die after a few days (there are many reasons such as: pH differences, the various toxic components ... ). Let's just keep status of this tank

BY THE SECOND DAY you start to change their environment by gradually filling the tank by previously prepared water. Adding about 20% of the water in the tank is fine and perform 2 times per day in the morning and afternoon, not to feeding the second day. Fish will start to get used to the new water.
    
ON THE THIRD DAY, you use a small tube (recommended air pipe) to suck the dirt off the bottom of the tank, sucking about one quarter of the water in the tank is okay. After that, filling the tank new water corresponding sucked out. Now you should feeding a little fish daphnia (called pink ceiling) or dry food is up to you. Keep in mind that very little food for fish because exuberancy food lead to loss of aquarium hygiene, easy to make illness and death at this stage. in the first day and shouldn't feed. At this stage, guppies need quiet and get acquainted with the environment and the ambient temperature.

THE FOURTH DAY , and the next days do similar the THIRD day  but do 2 times a day and fed once in the morning. After five to seven days you move fish and water into larger tank and add 100% of the original water. Now as you have succeeded!

    When the fish use your water source, you can change depending on the water fish tank dirty or not, but not necessarily 100% water change in the tank. Change the water often helps fish healthy and avoid illness. Diets can be divided into 2 to 3 times a day, preferably in the morning (for fresh prey: bo bo, worm, mosquito larvae ...) and afternoon (fresh or dry food) . After 1 to 2 months the young fishes are born is great achievements that you have because of the patience.
