? Loach and koi are common fish in China, among which koi is a very famous ornamental fish, which not only has a good ornamental effect, but also has a very good moral. Loach is also a kind of fish that can be cultured artificially. When breeding them, some people will choose to mix other fish with them. This is possible, but not all fish can be put together with loach. For example, koi is not suitable to be raised with loach.
First of all, loach and koi have different requirements for the surrounding water quality. Loaches like to live in places where there is a lot of mud, and wild loaches themselves like to stay at the bottom of the water where there is a lot of mud. Moreover, loach itself will secrete mucus that affects water quality, which will lead to dirty water quality, and a large number of bacteria will easily breed in the water. Koi has a relatively high requirement for water quality, which can easily lead to Koi illness. In addition, from the point of view of feeding habits, Koi is omnivorous fish, and their size is relatively large, compared with loach is a strong side, polyculture is easy to eat loach.
above, the loach and the koi can not be raised together. One of the important reasons is that the koi may eat the loach. Compared with loach, koi belongs to the more powerful side, and they belong to omnivorous fish, animals and plants will become their food, loach may therefore become the prey of koi, it is easy to be eaten by them. Of course, there will be loaches that survive, but they may still be injured by Koi, so try not to put them together.
