Breeding gold fishes will bring many benefits to people, such as cheer houses up, cultivate and relax people’s mind, etc. However, do you know how to breed gold fishes? If not, let me share some points with you.
First, prepare an aquarium and water in it 1-2 days before gold fishes are put it in. After that, put fishes which were bought from the store with plastic package together into the aquarium and make it hang in the upper level of the water for about half an hour when the temperatures are close between the water in plastic package and in aquarium. Then empty the water in plastic package out the aquarium and put the gold fishes in aquarium, at the same time, add a little salt so as to kill germs in water.
Second, make sure to give enough space for fishes in one aquarium. If there are so many fishes in one aquarium that they cannot breath enough oxygen.
Third, excessive feeding is strictly prohibited. Some people fear to hunger of fishes so that they will feed them several times one day. It will pollute the water quality if the surplus foods go mouldy. This is bad for gold fishes.
Forth, we should know that change the water frequently is not good for gold fishes. When will we change the water? There is no conclusion can be determined, but we can change it according to water quality. If looks muddy, change more or all; otherwise, change little. But remember that the changed water should have similar temperature with the original one if you decide to change part of the water in aquarium. The best way is to exchange for one third or one quarter one time.
Fifth, we had better put the aquarium in a place where can be sun for 1-2 hours a day for the ultraviolet can help disinfection. What’s more, due to photosynthesis, the color of gold fishes will look more brightly.
Sixth, please use finer filter and sand washing device. A finer filter helps us clear up the spoil goods from gold fishes or foods in the water and to back good environment to fishes; a finer sand washing device helps us to clear up dregs in sands at the bottom of water and reduce the pollution of aquarium.
The above advises just offer you to refer. Hope it can help you.
In last article, we have talked about the question how to handle the relationship between the new dogs and the old dogs; I expect it have given you a certain degree of help. In the meantime, if you have read the last article carefully, you may remember another question we referred, that is many people not only loved to keep dogs, but also love to keep cats at home. Therefore, I’d like to talk about if you can keep cats and dogs together.
Dogs and cats are two kinds of companion animals that generally kept, they have many similarities, but there are also many different places. The brain well-developed, limbs flexible, able to follow simple commands of the control, value feelings, love family, love clean, strong vigilance, can accompany the owner to spend time. Judging from that, they are really good human companions. However, according to experts studies, Dogs and cats cannot keep together, mainly in the following several reasons.
(1)From the nutritional point of view, dogs are omnivorous animals, nutrition levels are lower, while the cat is a typical carnivorous animal, and nutrition levels are relative higher, so they cannot be fed with the same diet. With dog food feeding cat, cats would not be enough to maintain normal nutritional needs; On the other hand, with the cat food feeding the dog, the dog would be fat as a result of energy excess, it’s not conducive to health. So, cats and dogs should be fed separately, and be fed according to the different levels of diet.
(2) From the linguistic point of view, cats and dogs have communicable difficulties, for example, a dog’s tail swings often suggest he is happy to close to others, while the cat’s tail violently beat suggest angry , meaning I do not close anyone. Therefore, although the similarities between the two movements, but the meaning conveyed is quite different. When the dog see the cat swinging tail, think that you may like to make friends, but the result of approaching will only be attacked by the cat’s claw, or teeth intimidation.
(3) From the living habits of view, the dog’s daily routine is basically following human, that is, working during the day and sleeping at night, while the cat remained nocturnal activity habits. Due to the different patterns of life, letting them live together in harmony is not an easy task.
If you keep both cats and dogs at home, the best approach of making them living in harmony is, cats and dogs live together from an early age, and taking some necessary teaching, but putting adult cats and adult dogs together is still full of trouble. You’d better not do this attempt.
Now, keeping pets at home has become a hobby of many people, for those friends who love dogs, probably you have kept not only a one, but a lot. In fact, there are many arts and skills worthy of a serious effort to study, for example, what this section will discussed, how to handle the relationship between new dogs and old dogs. Because as the same as humans, animals have their own language and mentality.
Well, although dogs are social animals, but we have a new dog into the family, the same need to carefully observe and care for the old dog. Because once a new dog is brought home, you will probably focus more on the new dogs, and then the old one will produce jealousy, showing discontent, some old dogs will even become irritable and aggressive. In this case, the best combine is that a new young male dog match an elder dog not castrated. This mix will make the old dog’s living habits affected, but the old dogs could maintain the original way of life through the traces of smell inner house, and able to lead a new dog, so it will become relatively simple for the owner training the new dog. On the contrary, bitches are more amenable to the young fellow, to make their habits change.
In a strange place for new and old dogs knowing each other, then putting them together to take home, is a good way to make them peaceful co-existence and can reduce possible struggle to the smallest.
The new dogs should be fed separately in order to avoid fighting over foods. They must be separated from rest, to prevent disputes. If the old dogs bluster to the new arrivals, not to scold them, because they are merely to protect their territory, this situation does not definitely lead to strife. What important is not to suggest your protection for newcomers, because it will become a certain challenge to old dogs. On the contrary, maintaining the practice is better.
The length of time dogs need to familiarize themselves with each other, to a large extent, is determined by the degree of masters’ care. In order to make the new and old dog get along better, there must be full of patience and cannot be impatient for success.
