Zebrafish have broad anal fins. Corresponding to the dorsal fin, the pectoral fin is smaller. There are more than 10 species of zebrafish, mainly in stripes and colors, as well as changes in fin lines. Such as long-finned zebrafish, golden zebrafish, lightning zebrafish, big zebrafish and so on.

Feeding requirement

Zebrafish are mild-tempered, lively and active, swimming almost all the time. Its feed water quality requirements are not stringent, like to live in pH-neutral water, like new water, suitable water temperature 21Mu26 degrees Celsius. But zebrafish is both cold-resistant and heat-resistant, and the water temperature can still live in the range of 15Mel 40 degrees Celsius.

Zebrafish are fond of foraging in the upper waters and are not picky about bait. All kinds of fish, insects and artificial fodder are fed. Raising zebrafish is best to spread some larger pebbles at the bottom of the tank to facilitate the accumulation of sediments and not to make the water muddy. It does not attack and kill other fish, so it is suitable for mixed culture. Zebrafish is one of the most popular tropical fish because of its beautiful color and extensive feeding conditions.
