First, the symptoms of parrot fish suffering from enteritis
Nautilus enteritis can be divided into many different types according to its specific causes, and the symptoms and treatment measures of parrot enteritis caused by different causes are also different. The common types and related symptoms of parrot fish enteritis are:
1. Enteritis caused by bacterial infection: Nautilus fish is caused by bacterial infection, and the biggest symptoms are obvious abdominal distension, blackening, fin shrinkage and accumulation, dragging or purulent white stool.
2. Enteritis caused by internal paste: The symptoms of enteritis caused by internal paste are similar to those of parrot fish, which is usually difficult to distinguish. The characteristics of parrot fish in the above two diseases are almost the same, such as eyes, body color, expression, etc., which can only be distinguished from the fish's food intake and feces. Usually, the appetite of fish infected internally will not be affected, and there will be no loss of appetite; But enteritis fish usually show anorexia or refusal to eat. In addition, the feces discharged by infected fish are usually hollow or segmental white feces; When suffering from enteritis, there is little defecation or purulent white stool.
3. Enteritis caused by excessive water quality change: The symptoms of enteritis caused by this reason are: the parrot fish is black in color, the fins are atrophied, and piles are piled up, often defecating.
4. Enteritis caused by indigestion: The symptoms of enteritis caused by indigestion of parrot fish include loss of appetite, anorexia or refusal to eat, and dull expression. Sometimes there will be symptoms such as dark or black body color. In addition, in this case, the fish usually appear isolated and wall-faced, and the feces are loose or pus-like.
Second, the treatment of parrot fish enteritis.
1, enteritis caused by bacterial infection, if the color of the diseased fish remains unchanged, norfloxacin can be used for 3~6 days. Once the symptoms of abdominal distension in sick fish disappear, you can stop taking medicine and change water. Pay attention to fasting fish when taking medicine bath; If the fish turns black, accompanied by symptoms such as fin shrinking and rotten tail, it is necessary to use oxytetracycline copper sulfate and salt to diminish inflammation. Of course, the best treatment is to feed oxytetracycline or norfloxacin to the sick fish while it is still willing to eat. This therapy works quickly.
2. Enteritis caused by the internal paste: generally, the treatment of enteritis caused by the internal paste is mainly deworming, because since it is enteritis caused by the internal paste, as long as the internal paste of parrot fish is cured, the problem of enteritis will naturally be solved, but dual treatment is the key. At present, there are indeed many drugs on the market that can treat parrot fish invagination and enteritis. For example, metronidazole plus furazolidone, intestinal Chongqing, levamisole hydrochloride and chlorpheniramine tablets can all be used, but we must pay attention to controlling the dosage.
3. Enteritis caused by water quality change: Nautilus enteritis caused by this situation generally does not need medication, just adjust the water quality to ensure good water quality and let the sick fish rest for a few days. Pet owners need to be aware of the importance of water quality to fish health and pay attention to maintaining good water quality at ordinary times.
4. Enteritis caused by indigestion: Enteritis caused by indigestion of parrot fish is relatively easy to treat and can be treated with furazolidone. According to the dosage of 4~6 tablets of furazolidone in 100 liter of water, sick fish can be bathed for three days or their appetite recovers, and their feces are normal, so they can stop taking drugs and change water.
