The butterfly carp is a kind of ornamental fish, which is more popular with breeders. They are still relatively large in size. After adulthood, their size will generally be more than 30 centimeters. If the breeders with rich breeding experience raise them and keep the environment more suitable, then the size of butterfly carp can reach more than 50 centimeters under normal circumstances. In addition, there are also some larger butterfly carp, which can reach 100 centimeters or even 120 centimeters in length after adulthood. There are many reasons why they can grow so big. On the one hand, the breeding method is suitable, and on the other hand, there should be genetic reasons. However, in general, such a large butterfly carp is not very common.
For the butterfly carp raised in the family, how much they can grow is greatly affected by the surrounding environment. For example, space, if in a relatively small tank breeding butterfly carp, then they must not grow too big; And feeding, enough food to make the butterfly carp bigger.
Butterfly carp not only looks good, their life span is relatively long. If the surrounding environment is always suitable, their life span will be about 10 years. However, this is only their life span when the environment is more suitable for their growth. If they do not pay attention to controlling the surrounding environmental factors in the process of breeding, their life span will be reduced. For example, if they do not pay attention to changing water at ordinary times, resulting in very poor water quality, then butterfly carp may get sick, which will affect their life span, or even directly lead to their death.
