horse mouth fish is a kind of fish living in our country. It is found in many water systems in our country and belongs to freshwater fish. In terms of size, the horse mouth fish belongs to a small fish, which can not grow very big. From the length point of view, the length of adult horse mouth fish is only a dozen centimeters, the length of small horse mouth fish is generally about 10 centimeters, even larger individuals, the length is only about 20 centimeters. In addition, from the weight point of view, the horse mouth fish is also relatively light, the common horse mouth fish weight is only about 50 grams, the larger individual weight can reach 100-150 grams, will not grow very large.
Specifically, the specific length and weight of the horse mouth fish are not certain, and there are individual differences. This is because the environment around the opsariichthys is different, water temperature, water quality and other factors are different, and the amount of food and the richness of nutrition are also different. As a result, the size of Ophiocephalus living in different environments is different, for example, the size of wild Ophiocephalus is different from that of cultured Ophiocephalus, and sometimes there is a big difference. The common horse mouth fish in the market is not particularly large.
can Ophiocephalus live? As mentioned above, Ophiocephalus is a small fish in terms of size. In terms of their life span, the horse mouth fish belongs to a relatively short life span fish. Generally speaking, the life span of the horse mouth fish is between 3 and 5 years. However, this is only their average life span, which is different for different individuals, and how long they can live will be affected by many factors.
From the point of view of external environmental factors, food, water temperature and water quality will affect the life span of opsariichthys, if these factors are not suitable for their growth, they will not live for a long time. In addition, human factors are also an important reason for the shortening of their life span. If they are not killed directly by humans, they will live for a shorter time. On the whole, cultured opsariichthys olivaceus generally does not live for a long time, because the purpose of breeding them is to sell them in the market and obtain economic benefits.
