Red nose scissors generally 6 months will be sexually mature, so the parent fish must choose 6 months old, so as to ensure normal mating. First, prepare a large fish tank as a breeding place, inject soft water into the tank, and plant a certain amount of water plants. After that, three pairs of parent fish will be put into it, and when they adapt, they will begin to mate.
The red-nosed scissors themselves have relatively high requirements for water temperature and water quality, especially during the breeding period. Suitable water temperature not only helps them mate, but also helps the hatching of eggs. Usually the temperature should be kept between 26 C, PH must be stable, once the change will affect their growth, or even lead to their death.
Usually, after the red-nosed scissors lay eggs, they have to be fished out and put back into the original water tank. After a day or so, the eggs will hatch. The female fish lays 100-200 eggs each time, the young fish incubated in the early stage can absorb yolk as nutrition, and after 10 days, they will start feeding.
The propagation of the red-nosed scissors is relatively difficult. Even if the spawning is successful, there will be problems in hatching. Moreover, the young fish have higher requirements for the water body. If they are not well raised, they will easily die. We must pay attention to maintaining the stability of water quality, do not use too much new water when changing water, and control the temperature well, so as to grow up healthily.
