Because the water flow in the native environment of Akashi rat fish is relatively fast, it is best to create a water environment with relatively fast water flow for them when raising. To a certain extent, this can promote their physical activity and is more conducive to their healthy growth. In addition, it is also possible to lay a layer of fine sand under the water, which can effectively prevent their scales from being damaged. Generally speaking, it is not difficult to raise them, so long as they are taken good care of, they can be raised well.

1. Water quality: Akashi rat fish does not require very high water quality conditions. In fact, as long as the pH value of water body is guaranteed to be weakly acidic to neutral. In addition, it is also very important to keep the water quality basically clean.

2, water temperature: They don't require high water temperature. Only by keeping the water temperature between 22-26 ℃, they can maintain their normal survival needs. It should be noted that before changing water, the new water should be exposed to the sun for a period of time to remove harmful substances in the water body, then the water temperatures of the new water and the old water should be neutralized, and then the new water should be slowly injected into the old water to ensure that the temperature difference does not exceed 2 ℃.

3. Feeding: They are not picky eaters, but like to compete for food. When feeding, it is recommended to adopt the principle of eating less and eating more. You can feed red worms, silk earthworms or prawns in good years.

4. Water change: Regular and appropriate water change operation can ensure the cleanliness of water quality. It is recommended to change the water every two weeks, with a maximum of one third of the water each time.
