Fairy fish can be mixed. Although they are medium-sized fish, their character is not fierce, so they are more suitable for mixed culture with other fish. However, not all fish are suitable for polyculture with fairy fish, and breeders need to choose fish with similar habits to fairy fish. For example, fairy fish like quiet environment, so breeders need to choose fish that also like quiet environment to mix together. In addition, fairy fish have higher requirements for water quality, so breeders should choose fish that are not seriously polluted to water quality for polyculture.

fairy fish can be mixed with silver screen lamp fish, mouse fish, penguin fish, traffic light fish, etc. These kinds of fish have similar habits with fairy fish, and have low requirements on the environment, so they are very suitable for mixed culture with fairy fish. Although they are not particularly fierce in character, it is suggested that breeders build some complicated landscapes in fish tanks, so that they have hiding places and make fish feel more secure.

Although fairy fish are gentle in character, they also have a certain sense of territory, and breeders need to ensure that they have sufficient living space. Otherwise, they may attack other fish. In addition, fairy fish has high requirements on water quality, so breeders need to install a circulating filtration system to ensure clean water quality. If the water quality is too poor, the fairy fish may have more discomfort.
