Broken Capillaries Urethra

neon

This sort of flashy red color with a bright blue horizontal band caused a real stir among the to ppassionati when it was introduced in the world aquarium for the first time in years Trenta.Con the subsequent discovery of Cheirodon axelrodi by staining the more flashy, but its popularity has been declining. Sometimes may be suffering from the incurable disease of the Neon (Plistophora), the typical symptom is a pale spot below the dorsal fin, which expands gradually.

This is a crucial step for parental care, if parents are rehearsed, well fed and treated well, the worst is over. I'm not saying do not do this if you are not successful, there are many other cases of parental care occurred in different ways, but following these simple rules you have several chances of success. I take some small scalar and places them in the community tank, enhances them with all care, I look at them and was formed when the couple move the aquarium dedicated and leave alone. Sometimes I let it lay in the community, but there are too many tenants and have never been able to complete the brood, at most I arrived in three days of swimming fry. The same pair, once transferred, had no problems at increasing Scalarini.
I have not talked about because I think that kind of scalar the color and shape of fins little influence on parental care, if the parents eat the eggs or small, there is often a reason and if you discover it blames practiced genetic manipulation to get those types of scalars. For example photos of this article refer to a pair of scalars with gold fins icing: they are born in my tanks were kept taking the leaf and have always been in a tank OTRAC. The parents of this pair I had bought nearly mature and have never carried out the brood alone while their children are perfect parents.

The golden rules for parental care

summarize these points in some major steps to increase the likelihood of having a couple of small breeds, list them in alphabetical order because I do not know what is the most important .

Water: must be as similar to their natural environment, acidic, soft and with nitrates low, trying to maintain constant values.

Food: must be abundant and full, both for parents and for the fry, it is essential a large dose of nauplii of Artemia when the fry start to swim.

Torque: be very close and you should be formed by a group of young scalar, must not have been too much stress or trauma.

Use a night light does not improve or worsen the results, I did several tests with or without light and did not notice significant differences. Some even bring in a fish tank `` target''for the couple not to fight and to bring together against a common enemy. For me it's more important to avoid the risk that the fish eat the small when they begin to swim, so I do not recommend placing it, particularly if the tank is small.

What to do if there is something wrong

Do not be discouraged if the first attempts fail, when there is something wrong with the parents eat the eggs and tries again after a few days. Depending on when you eat the eggs causes could be as follows.

Up to two days: eggs may not have been fertilized, may be few, the couple may have been recently transferred into the tank or water parameters may not be suitable. If you think there are a few eggs to increase the food, if you think that the values \u200b\u200bof the water make big changes (25% every two days), otherwise just wait.

before starting to swim: value of water unfit or tenants in the tank too disturbing.

When swim: Tenants in the tank too disturbing, or scarcity of food for fish fry. E 'need to increase the amount of Artemia nauplii to be administered at least three times a day.

In any case one should carefully observe the behavior of the fish, the tank and do a number of measures to try to discover the cause of failure.

algae aquarium.

In freshwater aquariums the great enemy of the plants is made up of algae. In the water appear as a green haze that then spread over all or a green sticky film forms a green tangle of cobwebs that chokes plants. There are many factors contributing to the presence and the rapid spread of the algae: the excessive food, too much light, the lack of plants. Paradoxically, it should encourage the development of marine algae in the aquarium, where plants are scarce, because their presence encourages the beneficial control of nitrogen compounds and serves as food for some fish.

Green algae to clump are single-celled green algae that reproduce both sexually and asexually by zoospores.

spores, separated dall'alga parent, form a new strand that immediately begins to reproduce.

The algae appear to clump in the tank as cotton balls deep green, usually attached to rocks or wood brightly lit, do not attack the plants, and are often considered weird decorations and furnishings for logs and tolerated.

Usually values \u200b\u200bof nitrates and phosphates are very high key triggers for these algae. Vegetarian Fish Removing only the parts young and tender.

key triggers:

have needs very similar to those of higher plants, and aquarium are in the right conditions to develop, usually prefer clean water and just move

Elevated nitrate and light is not suitable (wrong strength spectra, lamps or old) will favor the emergence and development.

However there are not harmful to plants and fish, because they grow only on furnishings, but appeared to be a serious wake-up call.

Main methods of prevention:

The best way to contain the growth of algae in general and in particular is to put these plants in the best position to compete.

Choosing the right light spectrum (typically between 4000 ° 6500 ° k and k) and maintain low levels of pollutants from decomposition (mainly nitrates and phosphates), preventing their appearance and limiting their spread.

organisms antagonistic

Fish algae eaters eat only the young and tender seaweed, and are useful to prevent its occurrence, but unnecessary to control an infestation already underway.

Shellfish preferably act in the same way, but if kept in the diet reduced eat it willingly.

gastropods such as apple snails and neritine are effective, but Their action is completed in time long enough (they are snails!).

Chemicals effective:

Use of chemicals to combat algae green tuft is not recommended, as these algae needs very similar to those of higher plants, and any chemical treatment would have detrimental effect on plants and also would have limited effect and only temporary effect.

Success Strategies against infestations

The most effective weapon to combat infestation by a green tuft are crustaceans algae eaters such as Caridina and Neocaridina , who are greedy.

The mechanical removal of clumps is a viable alternative, but is time-consuming and tedious.

For overcrowded tanks the only remedy is to reduce the number of fish and if possible increase the plant biomass by introducing other plants.

The use of synthetic resins is a temporary palliative, unless they are used on a permanent basis (expensive as well as artificial), also just an oversight and the system collapses rapidly.

In practical ways to combat this type of algae are two: eat them or make them die of hunger ... the first street is repressive, the second is preventive.
