The best polyculture fish of red-nosed scissors fish is the fish of lamp family, such as traffic light fish, lotus light fish, triangle light fish, etc., which are very similar to the living habits, environmental requirements and body shape of red-nosed scissors fish. Mixed breeding together will not lead to fighting, but also can enhance the sense of security of red-nosed scissors fish.

In addition to lantern fish, breeders can also choose some small tropical fish, such as guppy, Mary fish, zebrafish, white cloud golden silk fish and so on. Although guppies and red-nosed scissors have different water quality requirements, both can live in neutral water. When rearing artificially, it is only necessary to keep the water quality stable.

1. Feeding density: Although red-nosed scissors like to live in groups, they also need a certain living space. When breeders mix them with other fish, they should pay attention not to raise them at a high density, otherwise the red-nosed scissors fish may suffer from hypoxia.

2. Installation of filtration system: Breeders also need to install a filtration system for them, which can slow down the deterioration of water quality and keep the water quality stable.

3. Planting aquatic plants: Red-nosed scissors fish are timid and like to hide in aquatic plants or corners. Especially if other fish are mixed, they may be frightened. Breeders need to plant some aquatic plants for them to have shelter.
