Spiny loach like to move at night, during the day they are usually hidden in the sand layer or water plants.Although their character is more docile, adult loaches like to chase smaller fish, so it is not recommended to mix them with other small fish.The aquarium in which they are raised needs to be planted with aquatic plants.They prefer to swim close to the sand layer, so the aquatic plants are easily disturbed and knocked over.The planted aquatic plants can be pressed and fixed by stones, and the damage of the aquatic plants can be avoided in a limited way.They have very loose requirements for water quality, keep the water clean, and it is relatively simple to raise them.
1. Water quality: Weakly acidic soft water is more suitable for the survival and reproduction of the spiny loach.When raising them, the pH of the water should be in the range of 6.0-6.5 and the hardness of the water should be in the range of 5-10.Under this condition, the growth of spiny loach is more vigorous and active.
2. Feeding: The spiny loach is a carnivorous fish, and various fresh active baits are their favorites.The wiggler, the red worm and the tubificidae can be used as live bait to be fed to them.Their appetite is relatively large, and they can be fed 1-2 times a day.
3. Environment: In the aquarium where they are raised, aquatic plants need to be planted, and sunken wood of appropriate size needs to be placed to meet their habit of moving close to the sand layer.They climb up the walls of the aquarium, so the aquarium needs to be sealed.
