Precautions for Mixed Breeding
Provide Adequate Space: When mixing different kinds of fish, enough space should be provided for them to avoid fights due to cramped living conditions.
Plant Aquatic Plants: Planting some aquatic plants in the fish tank can offer hiding places for the fish and reduce the occurrence of fights.
Observe the Behavior of the Fish: After mixed breeding, closely observe the behavior of the fish. Once any aggressive behavior is detected, separate the fish in time to avoid serious injuries.
