It is best for a mermaid to eat animal feed. Because they are omnivorous and carnivorous fish, they can choose to feed animal bait when feeding. But at different stages, the bait they can eat is different. For example, when they hatch for three or four days, they can be fed young bumper shrimp. After two weeks, you can feed Daphnia. After a month, you can feed adult bumper shrimp. However, it should be noted that food should be sterilized in advance, so as to avoid the disease from entering the mouth and reduce the probability of their illness.

The food intake of the mermaid with one eyebrow is relatively small. However, in order to ensure that they get enough nutrition, they should be fed in small quantities and many times. Feed them two to three times a day, and it is advisable to eat them within ten minutes each time. At the same time, after eating the bait, it is necessary to salvage the remaining food residues from the fish tank in time, so as not to pollute the water quality, thus increasing the probability of their illness. The nutritional collocation of food needs to be balanced, and artificial diet can be fed with fresh live bait. Don't let them eat too much. After eating too much, this kind of fish will become slow and less motivated.
