Disease prevention for betta fish mainly relies on measures such as maintaining clean water quality, reasonable feeding, avoiding stress, regular observation, and quarantine for new fish. Through these methods, the risk of betta fish getting sick can be effectively reduced, allowing them to grow healthily.
Maintaining clean water quality: Regular water changes are an important measure to maintain clean water quality. It is recommended to change about 30% of the water in the fish tank every week and clean up the fish feces and leftover bait at the bottom of the tank to prevent diseases caused by deteriorating water quality.
Reasonable feeding: Choose high-quality bait and avoid overfeeding to maintain good digestion and absorption and reduce diseases caused by indigestion.
Avoiding stress: Ensure that each betta fish has enough activity space to reduce stress reactions caused by environmental stress.
Regular observation: Regularly check the status of betta fish and discover abnormalities in time, which is helpful for detecting problems early and taking measures.
Quarantine for new fish: Newly purchased betta fish should be quarantined and observed first. After observing for a period of time without abnormalities, they can be put into the main tank to prevent the spread of diseases.
Through the above measures, the risk of betta fish getting sick can be effectively reduced, and at the same time, it is also helpful to improve the survival rate and health status of betta fish.
