The size of the lucky fish is still relatively large. Its body length is generally between 20 and 69 centimeters. Occasionally, there will be very long, about 1 meter, but this kind of lucky fish is relatively small, breeding conditions are very good and good genes of lucky fish can reach this length. Generally speaking, when the environment is suitable, the lucky fish can grow 5-10 centimeters a year. For the general novice breeders, it is impossible to raise the lucky fish very long, generally speaking, about 40 centimeters.
The lucky fish is a kind of common ornamental fish, which is usually welcomed by the breeders and is cultured in the fish tank at home. Generally speaking, for the family breeding of lucky fish, their life span is between 5-8 years, more than 10 years of lucky fish is relatively small. However, occasionally there are very long-lived lucky fish, which can live for about 14 years, but very few, family-raised lucky fish generally do not have such a long life.
To be specific, how long the home-raised lucky fish can live has a lot to do with the breeding method of the breeder. For novice breeders, they may not be particularly familiar with the habits and characteristics of lucky fish, and the control of various environmental factors is not so appropriate, so the life span of lucky fish may be low. In the case of illness, their life span may be further shortened and they may easily die. For more experienced breeders, water temperature, oxygen, light and other factors will be properly handled, so that the life of the lucky fish will be relatively long.
