Previous: I saw the domineering appearance of the Thunder Dragon Fish, and this one we came to know a little cute - striped catfish
Looking at the name, you can also know that this fish is a small fish. Does the small body and the stripes on the body look cute?
Striped terry, a species of fish in the genus Catfish in the family Cyprinidae. Also known as golden bar, five-line catfish, half-crucian carp, banxing fish, pumpkin seeds, seven-star fish, red circles. It is found in streams and ditches in plains throughout the country. The female has four to six distinct transverse stripes on both sides, while the male also has transverse markings on the side of the body, which is significantly different from the female in that the abdomen is bright red. The male fish is particularly beautiful after the hair color is complete.

In addition, the striped catfish has a mild temperament and can be mixed with most small fish, and it also has the habit of eating filamentous algae, which is very suitable for grass tank culture.
However, it should be noted that ornamental shrimp cannot be polycultured with them, otherwise, after a period of time, only fish will be seen and shrimp will not be seen.
