Loach is one of the more common fish in our country, or can be cultured artificially, from the point of view of the difficulty of breeding, it is relatively easy to raise. When breeding them, generally speaking, they will not only raise this species, but also mix it with other fish, or mix it with some crops. Loach can be mixed with fish, but there are many problems to be paid attention to when choosing the species to be mixed with them.
According to the requirements of loach for water quality, they like to live in places with more silt, and the substances they secrete may make the surrounding water more easily dirty, so they are not suitable for breeding with fish that like to live in clean water, such as goldfish. In addition, loach is a bottom fish, so in polyculture, try to choose fish living in the middle and upper layers, so that it is not easy to cause the problem of insufficient space and food. Generally speaking, grass carp, silver carp, bighead carp and bream are more suitable.
above, loach can be mixed with other fish, but it is necessary to choose the species that can be raised with them. Not all fish can be raised together. Loach itself is a relatively gentle fish, they generally do not eat other fish, but there is a problem is that they may become food for other fish. Especially when the age of the loach is still relatively young and the size is very small, as well as the eggs of the loach, they may become food for other ferocious fish. Therefore, when polyculture, we must not choose too fierce carnivorous fish to raise with loach, otherwise there may be risks.
