The fire-breathing diamond fish is a very attractive ornamental fish. When they are young, the fish seem to be very unremarkable. But when they grow to more than 8 centimeters, their bodies will emit dazzling colors. Their unique patterns have attracted the attention of many breeding enthusiasts.
This kind of fish likes to live in places with dense water and grass when it is native, and uses the small fish and shrimps as its own food. Their bodies are very strong and have a strong ability to adapt to new environments. If the breeder can ensure that the water temperature and quality are in normal conditions, their bodies will not be too sick. This kind of fish is relatively easy to raise.
fire-breathing diamond fish? 1. Water temperature: In a higher temperature environment, their body color will grow more full. When raising at home, it is recommended to control the feeding temperature between 24 and 28 degrees Celsius. In order to keep the temperature constant, it is necessary to install a better quality heating equipment in the aquarium.
2. Water quality: Weakly alkaline water is conducive to the normal life of this fish. The breeder needs to adjust the pH of the water in the aquarium within the range of 7.5-8.5. The hardness of the water is between 5 and 15, and their growth tends to be stable.
3. Feeding: The fire-breathing diamond fish is carnivorous, and it can be said that it is not happy without meat. Even after a long period of artificial breeding, their ability to accept artificial diet is not very strong. When raising them at home, it is a good choice to feed them with live baits such as tubificidae, red worms and shrimp.
