Mickey fish usually breed once a year. Because they are oviparous fish, they produce young fish instead of eggs. Therefore, female fish will spend more energy and physical strength in production, and it takes about one month from the beginning of reproduction to the completion of production, so Mickey fish usually only produces once a year. Although some Mickey fish can breed many times a year, this situation is not common. Moreover, breeding many times will not only affect the quality of offspring, but also be detrimental to the recovery of female fish, so it is not recommended to produce Mickey fish too frequently.
2. What are the signs before Mickey fish gives birth1. Abdomen becomes larger: As mentioned above, Mickey fish are oviparous fish, so their abdomen will become larger before giving birth. Moreover, there will be some fetal spots on the body, and the color of fetal spots will become darker and darker with time.
2, decreased activity: Mickey fish will decrease their activity before production, and some will hide in the corner without moving. In addition, their appetite will also decrease, because their abdomen will squeeze into their stomach when they are about to give birth, resulting in their lack of better appetite.
3. Protrusion of reproductive mouth: Near production, the reproductive mouth of Mickey fish will become very obvious, and some will protrude outward.
