The lubi lantern fish is a kind of fish of the Characidae family. They like to swim in the water with fish of similar size. When they swim in groups, they are very ornamental. Therefore, they are very popular with people. However, they have high requirements for water quality and are very sensitive to water quality. Therefore, for Xiaobai, it is difficult to raise them.
1. Water temperature: When raising the lubi lantern fish, it is very appropriate to control the water temperature at about 25 ℃, but for them in the breeding period, it is best to keep the water temperature between 23-28 ℃. Another point to note is that when changing water, we should try to narrow the temperature difference between new water and old water, after all, they are still very sensitive to temperature.
2. Water quality: They are a kind of fish that likes weak acidic water quality, so when raising them, the pH value of the water needs to be controlled between 6.8 and 7.0. This is beneficial for them to remain active.
3. Feeding: As they are omnivorous fish, it is possible to feed them with plant bait or animal bait. But they prefer to eat plant bait, so when feeding, they can mainly use plant bait, such as aquatic plants, cooked vegetable leaves, etc., with some animal bait, such as water fleas, red worms and so on.
4. Environment: Because their young eggs are sticky eggs, they are usually laid between aquatic plants. Therefore, when raising them, it is necessary to prepare some water plants and rockeries for them. At the same time, it also provides an environment for them to play, which greatly improves the ornamental value of group swimming.
