Loaches will eat small fish, but in many cases they can't eat small fish because they swim too fast. If there are small dead fish in the loach's living environment, the loach will also use them as its own food. In terms of feeding habits, loaches not only eat small fish, but also many organisms, including plants and animals. Artificial breeding of loach, they can also be appropriate to eat some fish, but also with some plants as their food.
1. can loach eat small fish
? Loach is one of the common fish, or a kind of edible fish. Loach's feeding habits are very miscellaneous, animals and plants can eat. Because they belong to benthic fish, some plant debris, crustaceans and insects inhabiting the bottom of the waters can become food for loach. Fish is also one of the food of loach, but loach is generally unable to eat small fish, because the swimming speed of small fish is faster, and the activity speed of loach is not as fast as that of small fish.
However, sometimes there are small dead fish in the loach's living environment, and the loach may feed on them. In addition, artificially bred loach can also eat fish. It is also appropriate for breeders to feed them some fish properly. Loach likes to eat more, and the fish contains more nutrients, which can promote the rapid growth of loach. However, loach can also eat many kinds of food, so there is no need to give them only small fish, appropriate with some plants is more appropriate.
From the point of view of appetite, the appetite of loach is not particularly large, because their intestinal tract is relatively short, but there are some folds, which can increase the food stored in the intestinal tract appropriately. Generally speaking, if the amount and frequency of food fed during breeding are more regular, then the amount of food eaten by loach each time is more regular, and they are more restrained, so they will not be stuffed to death. However, if the loach is fed irregularly and not fed for a long time and then fed a lot of food, the loach will eat too much food because of hunger, which will lead to indigestion and even death due to enteritis.
