Mary fish is mild and small, usually not aggressive, and can be mixed with ornamental shrimp. Under the condition of artificial breeding, in order to avoid the occurrence of some accidents, some shrimp nests need to be placed in the aquarium, some landscaping objects or sunken wood can be used, and some rocks can also be used to provide a place for shrimps to shelter and perch.
In addition, it should be noted that some different species of Mary fish will eat shrimp. Before maintenance, it is necessary to select the species first, and according to the dietary characteristics of different kinds of fish and shrimp, protective measures should be taken in advance before feeding. For example, Black Mary will eat extreme fire shrimp and black shell shrimp, especially newly shelled shrimp, and newly hatched shrimp are most popular with them, so it is better not to maintain these two kinds of shrimp with Black Mary.
Mary fish's feeding habits are more miscellaneous, it is not aggressive, it is possible to put it together with some small shrimp. Because some Mary fish will eat shrimp, so in order to avoid this phenomenon, in addition to building a shelter for shrimp, we should also provide enough food for Mary fish and feed them reasonably.
