Learn four tips to easily raise the God of Fortune fish

Introduction: The God of Wealth Fish is also a Feng Shui fish, which symbolizes making money. The God of Wealth Fish is golden in color, with golden eyes. The edges of the scales on its body are light red and have a metallic luster. Under the light, the whole body radiates golden light, magnificent and gorgeous. Therefore, it is loved by many people. So how should we raise the God of Fortune fish correctly? What is the best way to raise God of Fortune fish? Let’s follow the editor to learn more about these questions! In response to these problems, the editor has compiled a special topic on fish tank feng shui, which contains everything you want to know.

1. Temperature

The requirements of the God of Fortune fish for water temperature are relatively low, and the fish body has a strong ability to adapt to temperature. People often think that blood god of wealth fish can withstand low temperatures, so they keep the water temperature lower. In fact, blood god of wealth fish is quite "sensitive" to temperature. It is relatively easy to raise among tropical fish, but easy is relative. It is easy to keep it healthy and not die, but it is difficult to raise it well.

In low water temperature or drastic water temperature fluctuations, the God of Fortune fish is prone to lose its bright body color or even fade due to physiological reactions, and even worse, black stripes or spots may appear. Maintaining the water temperature at around 28 degrees can make the fish appear bright in color and full of vitality. However, the God of Fortune fish that live in low water temperature for a long time will have discoloration problems and are prone to illness and death.

2. Frequency of water changes

The color of the God of Fortune fish will become lighter within the first 2-3 hours after the water is changed, but it will soon return to red. Likewise, if new water is not added for more than 4 days, the color of the Fortune Fish will fade. Therefore, the water should generally be changed every three days, with one-quarter of the water being changed each time. Keeping the water fresh can ensure that the color of the Fortune Fish does not fade.

3. Feed

A. This fish must not be fed with small river fish. Perhaps the color of small river fish stimulates their atavism genes. As long as they are fed with small river fish, the color of the God of Wealth fish will definitely become lighter. If the blood-red god of wealth fish is fed with small fish, it will become full because it is greedy and does not know when it is hungry or full. Small river fish are not good for the gills either. The gills of the god of wealth fish are very fragile and small river fish can easily bring in germs. I once kept the fortuna with other large fish and they would also fight for the smaller fish to eat, but every time they ate the smaller fish there would be problems. You should never feed loaches to fish. No fish can tolerate them. They are difficult to digest and are more likely to cause contamination. I have done several experiments and even fish like paparazzi can't tolerate loaches.

B. The feed should be red-enhanced feed. "Astaxanthin" can promote the blood fish to have a more prominent body color. If the blood fish can fully absorb astaxanthin, the blood fish's body color will be bright red in the near future. The special feed for blood croaker contains astaxanthin and "β-carotene", which can keep the body color of blood croaker bright red. Gradually adding particles (which enhance color) to the feed will improve the color of the Blood Fortune Fish.

C. Fish that are used to eating live bait will not like to eat pellets. Some fish lovers may have been feeding their God of Fortune fish live worms since they bought them, so when they switch to feeding them granular feed, the God of Fortune fish will not eat it. You can take a step-by-step approach: before feeding live worms, first give the fish some pellets (which can add color), but a small amount, so that the fish can adapt. After the fish has finished eating, feed them the live worms you have been feeding before. After the fish have adapted, gradually increase the amount of pellets and reduce the amount of live worms, and finally adjust to granular feed. In addition, you should change the brand of feed frequently and not just feed one type.

D. Some people feed live shrimps and brine shrimps, which is of course good and can enhance the color, but the cost is higher. However, you should also pay attention to disinfection and cut off the hard thorns on the heads of the live shrimps to avoid harming the God of Fortune fish.

4. Light

The fortune fish is sensitive to light. Strong light exposure needs to be given regularly and quantitatively. Keep it exposed to bright light for 1-2 hours a day, and then keep it in a darker environment for the rest of the day. The room is relatively bright, there is no light, but the light is sufficient. But if the light remains the same for a long time, the color of the God of Fortune fish will fade. That is: provide regular, quantitative lighting instead of relying solely on natural light. Remember: the lighting time should not be too long, and the environment of the fish tank should be kept relatively dim after turning off the lights. In this way, once the light comes on again, you will find that the God of Fortune fish is much redder than before. If the fish tank is in a room that is not facing the sun, increase the light for two hours a day and then turn off the lights. If the room is well lit, you should block the light in the room appropriately after turning on the light to keep the fish tank dim. This method has worked for me time and time again, so you may as well give it a try.
