Zebrafish is a better looking and easier to raise fish, so they are more popular with breeders. Their size is relatively small, after entering the mature stage, their length is generally between 3-4 centimeters. The specific length may be related to the method of breeding, and their length may be slightly longer if they are carefully bred. There is also a difference in the size of the male and female, with the male being slightly longer than the female.
How big can zebrafish grow and how long can they live?

1. how big can zebrafish grow

Zebrafish is currently a very popular ornamental fish, because it not only has good ornamental effect, but also is a relatively good fish, more suitable for novice breeders to breed. They are relatively small in size. Generally speaking, they will reach the mature stage when they are cultured for 3 to 4 months, and their length will generally be between 3 and 4 centimeters, not too long.

The specific length they can reach will also be related to the method of breeding. If they are carefully farmed to provide adequate nutrition, they may grow longer; If you don't pay much attention to farming methods, malnutrition may occur, and zebrafish will be thinner and smaller. In addition, the length of zebrafish is related to male and female, and the length of male fish is slightly longer.

2. zebrafish can live long

Zebrafish life is still relatively long, they are also a relatively good fish, unless it is in a very unsuitable environment, otherwise it is generally not dead. Their life span can in principle be as long as 10 years. However, the life span of zebrafish raised in families is generally not too long, ranging from 3-5 years, and few can reach 10 years. This is because we can not guarantee that the surrounding environment is always in a suitable state in the process of breeding. For example, if the water quality is not suitable, zebrafish may get sick and die easily, or damage their health to some extent. Therefore, in the specific breeding time, if we want to make their life long, we need to pay attention to more problems.
