? Ploughshare Loach is a kind of sucking loach, which belongs to small benthic fish. This kind of fish is native fish, mostly from the wild environment, which requires high water quality, water temperature and water flow. In order to make them adapt to the feeding environment more quickly, they can simulate the stream environment in the tank, lay a layer of fine river sand at the bottom of the tank, and then lay some smooth stones on it.
Aquatic plants such as Potamogeton and Ruppia can be planted with relatively developed roots. Don't mix them with large and medium-sized fish when raising them at home, otherwise they will be bullied. When raising this kind of fish, the most important thing to pay attention to is that their bodies are very sensitive. Try not to let their bodies be bruised or damaged. It is easy to die after being bruised. Generally speaking, this kind of fish is still difficult to raise.
ploughshare loach 1. Temperature: Most of the sucking loach have a wide range of tolerance to temperature, and can tolerate low temperatures of 3 or 4 degrees Celsius. However, the loach has a relatively high requirement for temperature, and the daily temperature should be controlled at about 15-25 C. In winter, it needs to be heated to keep the temperature constant.
2. Feeding: Compared with algae, this kind of fish prefers to eat active baits such as blood worms and red worms. Fish mince can also be properly fed to them. They will only eat algae if they have not been fed for several days in a row, and they have a strong selectivity for algae.
3. Water flow: This kind of fish has a high requirement for water flow speed. It is recommended to make waves to keep the water in the tank flowing continuously. It can also be equipped with filters to keep the water clear and high oxygen content.
