1.Tank Setup for gold Fish
Aapki goldfish ko khush aur healthy rakhne ke liye sahi tank ka selection karna bahut zaruri hai.
Size:
Goldfish ko zyada space ki zarurat hoti hai. Ek goldfish ke liye minimum 20-gallon tank hona chahiye. Agar aapke paas ek se zyada goldfish hain, toh har fish ke liye 10 gallon aur add karein. Bada tank paani ko saaf rakhne aur machhliyon ko swim karne ke liye zyada jagah deta hai.
Shape:
Goldfish horizontal swim karna pasand karti hain, isliye lambai mein zyada aur rectangular shape ka tank chunen. Tall tanks ki jagah wide tanks inke liye zyada suitable hote hain.
Material:
Tanks do main materials mein milte hain: glass aur acrylic. Glass zyada durable aur scratch-resistant hota hai, jabki acrylic lightweight hota hai lekin asani se scratch ho sakta hai. Dono materials achhe hain, aap apni zarurat ke mutabik select kar sakte hai.
Filtration:
Goldfish kaafi waste produce karti hain, isliye ek acha filter hona zaruri hai. Filter paani ko saaf rakhne ke saath oxygen provide karta hai, jo aapki goldfish ki health ke liye important hai. Ek aise filter ka selection karein jo paani ko saaf kar sake aur healthy bacteria grow karne de.
Decorations:
Tank ko natural banane ke liye kuch plants, smooth rocks ya decorations add karein. Dhyan rakhein ki decorations sharp-edged na ho, jo aapki fish ko chot pahucha sakti hain. Live plants bhi tank ke paani ko saaf aur healthy rakhne mein madad karte hain.
2.Water Condition
Goldfish ko healthy rakhne ke liye unke tank ka paani sahi condition mein hona zaruri hai. Agar niche diye gaye water conditions ko maintain rakha jaye, toh aapki goldfish hamesha khush aur healthy rahegi.
Temperature:
Goldfish ko thanda paani pasand hai, jo 65-75°F (18-24°C) ke beech hona chahiye. Tank ko un jagahon par na rakhein jahan temperature mein zyada changes hote ho, jaise heaters ya AC ke paas.
pH Level:
Goldfish ke liye neutral ya thoda alkaline paani best hota hai, jiska pH level 7.0 se 8.4 ke beech ho.
Water Hardness:
Goldfish ko moderately hard paani ki zarurat hoti hai, jiska hardness level 4-20 dGH ke beech hona chahiye. Yeh unke gills ko healthy rakhne mein madad karta hai.
Toxins:
Paani ko harmful toxins se free rakhna bahut zaruri hai. Ammonia aur nitrites 0 ppm par hone chahiye, aur nitrates 40 ppm se kam hone chahiye. Acha filter aur regular cleaning isme madad karega.
Water Changes:
Goldfish kaafi waste produce karti hain, isliye paani ko saaf rakhne ke liye hafte mein ek baar 20-30% partial water change karna zaruri hai. Isse tank ka environment fresh aur healthy rahega.
3.Tank Mates
Goldfish aise tankmates ke saath rehena pasand karte hain jo peaceful ho aur unki water needs same ho. Achhe companions mein apple ya nerite snails hain, jo tank ko clean karne mein madad karte hain. Amano ya Ghost shrimp bhi safe hain, kyunki ye goldfish ko disturb nahi karte. Aap dusre goldfish ko bhi ek saath rakh sakte hain, bas unka size same hona chahiye.
White cloud mountain minnows aur rainbow fish bhi goldfish ke saath achha rehte hain kyunki unki needs same hoti hain. Corydoras catfish bhi achha option hain, kyunki wo tank ke neeche rehte hain aur safai mein madad karte hain.
Lekin fast ya aggressive fish se bachna chahiye, kyunki wo goldfish ko stress de sakti hain..
4.Food and Diet of Goldfish
Goldfish ko healthy aur active rehne ke liye ek well-balanced diet ki zarurat hoti hai. Agar aap unhe ek varied diet denge jo commercial food aur natural ingredients dono ka combination ho, toh aapke goldfish healthy, active aur vibrant rahenge. Yeh raha unhe dene ke liye kuch food options:
Commercial Goldfish Food (Pellets/Flakes):
Flakes:Â Goldfish flakes food ek common aur pet store me easily available hai. Yeh surface pe float hota hai, jisse goldfish ke liye khana khana asaan ho jata hai. Lekin flakes jaldi toot sakte hain, isliye ek bar mein thoda thoda khana de na jaroori hai.
Pellets:Â Pellet food goldfish ke liye ek accha option hai, kyunki yeh dheere dheere neeche doobta hai, jo unke natural feeding habits ko mimic karta hai. Dhyan rakhein ki pellets ka size goldfish ke liye suitable ho, taaki wo asaani se kha sakein.
Vegetables:
Goldfish omnivores hote hain, isliye unke diet mein vegetables ko include karna zaroori hai. Soft vegetables jaise peas, spinach, zucchini, aur lettuce acchi choices hain. Peas toh specially ache hain kyunki yeh digestion mein madad karte hain. Vegetables ko khane se pehle blanch (thodi der ke liye boil) ya freeze kar lena behtar hai, taaki wo fish ke liye soft aur asaani se khane layak ho jayein.
Live ya Frozen Foods:
Brine shrimp, daphnia, aur bloodworms protein se rich hote hain aur inhe kabhi-kabhi treats ke roop mein diya ja sakta hai. Yeh foods goldfish ke natural diet ko mimic karte hain, jahan wo chhoti creatures aur insects khate hain. Live ya frozen food especially unhe unke growth stages mein faayde ka ho sakta hai. Aap yeh pet stores ya reputed supplier se khareed sakte hain.
Freshwater Plants:
Kai goldfish soft plants ko nibble karna pasand karte hain. Duckweed aur anacharis jaise plants aquarium mein laga sakte hain. Yeh plants tank mein oxygen aur filtration bhi provide karte hain.
Mealworms aapke goldfish ke diet mein ek accha supplement ho sakte hain, jo unke growth aur energy ko support karne wala protein-rich treat hai. Goldfish aam taur par omnivores hote hain, aur kabhi-kabhi mealworms dena unke liye zaroori nutrients provide kar sakta hai jo unki overall health ko enhance karte hain.
Avoiding Overfeeding:
Ek important cheez jo yaad rakhni hai wo yeh hai ki goldfish ko overfeed mat karein. Zyada khana dene se water quality khatam ho sakti hai, kyunki leftover food decay ho sakta hai aur water ko ganda kar sakta hai, jo unhealthy tank conditions create karta hai. Chhoti portions mein 2-3 baar din mein khana de, aur kuch minutes baad jo khana bach jaye usse nikaal dein.
Supplementing Diet:
Kabhi-kabhi aap goldfish ko vitamin supplements ya specially-formulated foods bhi de sakte hain jo unki nutrition ko boost karein. Aise goldfish-specific products hote hain jo unki digestive health mein madad karte hain ya diseases se bachav karte hain.
5.Breeding of Goldfish:
Breeding Goldfish ek exciting experience ho sakta hai, lekin iske liye proper conditions chahiye hoti hain taaki process successful ho sake. Goldfish ki breeding mein patience ki zarurat hoti hai, lekin sahi conditions aur care ke saath, aap naye chhote goldfish ko raise kar sakte hain!
Selection of Pairs:Â
Healthy aur mature goldfish choose karein. Male goldfish usually slim hote hain, jabki females rounder hote hain, especially jab wo spawn karne ke liye ready ho. Ek accha pair ek male aur ek female goldfish ka hona chahiye. Aapke paas ek male ke liye kuch females hone chahiye taaki female par stress kam ho.
Breeding Conditions:Â
Ek alag breeding tank setup karein taaki overcrowding na ho aur optimal conditions mil sakein. Tank mein clean water hona chahiye, gentle filter lagana chahiye, aur female ke liye kai plants ya breeding mops rakhna chahiye jahan wo eggs lay kar sake. Water temperature ko thoda raise karein (around 68-74°F ya 20-23°C) taaki spring season ka feel aaye aur spawning ko encourage kiya ja sake. Tank ko thoda dimly lit rakhein taaki fish ko stress na ho.
Spawning Process:
Jab water temperature thoda badh jaata hai, male female ko chase karega aur uske abdomen ko gently nudge karega taaki wo eggs release kare. Female eggs ko plants ya mops par lay karegi, aur male unhe turant fertilize karega.
Care of Eggs:Â Spawning ke baad, adult fish ko tank se nikaal dein taaki wo eggs ko kha na lein. Eggs ko hatch hone mein lagbhag 4-7 din lagte hain. Water ko clean rakhein aur stable temperature maintain karein taaki eggs achhe se develop ho sakein.
Caring for Fry:Â Jab fry hatch hote hain, toh wo apne yolk sac se khana khate hain. Jab wo freely swim karne lagte hain, unhe finely crushed fish food ya liquid fry food de sakte hain. Water quality ko maintain rakhein aur small, frequent feedings dein. Jaise-jaise wo bade hote hain, unhe gradually larger foods dena start karein.
6.Common Diseases
Goldfish ko kai health problems ka samna karna pad sakta hai, jo aksar poor water quality, galat diet, ya stress ke wajah se hoti hain. Kuch common health issues hain jaise Ich (White Spots), jisme fish ke body par safed spots dikhte hain, aur Swim Bladder Disorder (Buoyancy Issues), jisme fish ko swimming mein dikkat hoti hai. Fin Rot bhi ek bacterial infection hai, jisme fish ke fins khatam hone lagte hain. Iske alawa, Dropsy (Swelling), Velvet Disease (Parasite), aur Fungal Infections bhi ho sakte hain, jo zyada tar poor tank conditions aur stress ke wajah se hoti hain.
