The scavenger is a kind of fish that is relatively easy to raise. The requirements for the surrounding environmental factors are not too harsh. It basically belongs to the species that can live with water. Moreover, they do not need to be fed frequently when they are raised, they will find some food to eat at the bottom of the tank, such as some food residues, feces, algae and so on.
1, fish tank: If breeding scavenger fish, you need to first prepare a suitable fish tank. After the scavengers grow up, their length will be about 25 centimeters, and the number of aquaculture needs to be controlled according to the size of the tank. Scavenger fish are not suitable for mixing with other fish, which may eat the eggs of other fish, or even eat the smaller fish directly.
2. Water quality: Pay attention to the water quality of the breeding scavengers. Weak acid or neutral water is OK. Another is the hardness of water, you can choose soft water.
3. Water temperature: As the fish is a tropical fish, controlling the water temperature is a relatively important step in the breeding process. In particular, between 22 and 28 degrees is possible. Among them, about 26 degrees is the most suitable. If the temperature is too low in winter, they are easy to freeze to death, so they need to adjust the water temperature.
4. Feeding: Although the scavenger can use the garbage in the fish tank as food, it still needs to be fed at ordinary times. But you don't need to feed it every day, about two or three times a week. There are many foods that can be fed, such as moss, algae and earthworms, plant or animal feed.
5. Change the water: Although scavengers can eat the garbage and clean the water in the fish tank, they can also pollute themselves. Therefore, changing water is also more important, you can change water every few days.
