What is the cause of tiger fish tail rot?

The tail rot of tiger fish is caused by white skin disease, which is caused by unclean water quality. Fish will defecate after eating. Over time, if the feces in the aquarium are not removed in time, or the fish are improperly moved into the tank, it will cause infection by pathogens. At the beginning of the disease, only one or two small white spots appear at the base of the dorsal fin or the caudal peduncle, and then quickly expand and spread from the dorsal fin to the back, causing the dorsal fin and tail to turn white.

Fish farming precautions

There are three main factors in fish farming: water, temperature and feeding. Water should be divided into freshwater fish and saltwater fish. Attention should also be paid to the oxygen content and cleanliness of the water. Fish have very high requirements for water temperature and need a heating rod to keep the temperature as constant as possible. In winter, power outages should be prevented to prevent death from low temperature and lack of oxygen. Feeding is carried out separately for each fish. Bait can be divided into live bait and artificial synthetic bait, and is implemented according to the fish species.
