How to raise goldfish in winter?

Keep goldfish in winter should pay attention to the following points:

First of all, feed

Feeding time can be delayed in late autumn and winter, usually around 7-8 o'clock, and even delayed to 10 in winter. But don't eat too much at night.

Even if the fish are obviously foraging, it is best to feed them in small quantities around 3 pm. 1 1 month later, the water temperature dropped obviously, and the appetite of goldfish decreased, especially at night.

Second, the water temperature.

When winter comes, we should pay attention to moving goldfish indoors to ensure that the water temperature is above 5 degrees Celsius. Although goldfish can survive above 0 degrees Celsius, when the water temperature is lower than 5 degrees Celsius, the life activities of goldfish will be greatly reduced, and goldfish will stagnate, appearing dull and dull in color.

Third, change the water.

Goldfish generally enter the dormant period in winter, and it is best to raise them in shallow water. Don't change water too often, mainly with "old water". Changing water less is one of the ways to keep the water temperature. Generally, change water 1 time every month and clean it 1 time every 2-3 days. When operating, it is necessary to prevent goldfish from injury, bleeding and desquamation.

Extended data:

The feeding time of goldfish, whether it is live feed or artificial feed, must master the following principles:

1. The feeding frequency is only 1-2 times a day, and each feeding amount should be eaten within 1-2 hours. The feeding amount of species with normal weather and water quality and strong vitality can be increased appropriately.

2. Feeding time should be as early as spring and summer, usually around 6-7 am, when the sun begins to shine and the fish ponds (tanks) begin to feed. Feeding time can be delayed in late autumn and winter, usually around 7-8 o'clock, and even delayed to 10 in winter.

But don't eat too much at night. Even if the fish are obviously foraging, it is best to feed them in small quantities around 3 pm. 1 1 month later, the water temperature dropped obviously, and the appetite of goldfish decreased, especially at night.

3. With the growth of goldfish, the food intake should be gradually increased appropriately, but it should not be blindly fed, especially artificial feed, which should be strictly controlled. In family fish farming, the feed can be divided into 1-2 times a day to avoid excessive feeding at one time, accumulation of ponds (tanks) and deterioration of water quality.
