Red zebrafish can eat rice, but it is not recommended to feed rice only. Because the main component of rice is starch, if only rice is fed, it cannot meet the nutritional needs of red zebrafish. In addition, rice is not easy to digest, and indigestion is easy to occur when fed too much. So breeders can occasionally feed rice as their snacks. At ordinary times, it is best to give priority to animal feed or synthetic feed.

Red zebrafish can eat rice, but it is not recommended to feed them rice. Because rice contains only starch and no other nutrients, long-term feeding of red zebrafish will make them malnourished.

Therefore, breeders can feed a small amount of rice at ordinary times, but they can't just feed rice. To feed red zebrafish, animal feed can be selected with synthetic feed, which can not only ensure adequate nutrition, but also ensure balanced nutrition.
