Lamp fish have a great place in small ornamental fish, known for their small and exquisite, remarkable color, and bright colors. Moreover, there are also many species of lampfish, and the main feature of lamp fish is that there is a small fin between the dorsal fin and the caudal fin - the fat fin. There are also those like the Imperial Lamp that are without fat fins. Another feature is that there are teeth in the mouth. However, there are also many fish that look like lightfish, but they are not actually light fish, and from the perspective of ornamental fish, we generally call small fish with bright colors and luminous physiques as lamp fish. Lampfish belong to the lipid carp family, so sometimes, we will mistake the "blue-eyed lamp" and "neon swallow" for the lamp fish, but in fact, the blue-eyed lamp belongs to the monolithic medaka family, and the neon swallow? It belongs to the small rainbow family.
There are still many types of lamp fish, but the living habits are also similar, we understand some common lamp fish on the market.
The first is the traffic light, which is a famous light in the lamp family fish, and is also loved by the majority of lamp fish lovers, and there is a blue and green ribbon from the side line to the eye part to the tail handle. The ventral fin end to the caudal part is red. As the name suggests, we call this cute little fish "traffic light".
Pauline lamp, is also a more common lamp fish, he is different from the traffic light is that the traffic light is "half red" from the end of the ventral fin to the tail, and the Pauline lamp is "full red". The requirements for water quality, and living habits are also similar to traffic lights, we can understand that traffic lights and Pauline lights are a pair of brothers, and the requirements for water quality are also similar, like weak acidic old water (PH value 6.0-6.8), in the case of a perfect filtration system, we can not have to change water too frequently, if you want to change water, you can replace 1/5 of the water of the fish tank every week. Although he is a brother with the traffic light, pauline lamp is obviously the big brother, bigger and stronger than the "traffic light", and the immunity will be better than the traffic light. Therefore, Pauline lamps will be much more solid than traffic lights, especially suitable for novice breeding, but it is more difficult to reproduce.
The next triangular lamp to be introduced, the triangular lamp is native to Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and other places, and there is a black triangle pattern in the middle of the body from the ventral fin to the base of the caudal fin, so it is sometimes called a black triangle fish. Triangle lamps have a mild temperament and can be kept with other tropical fish, eat animal food or be fed artificial feed. It is a relatively skinny fish, and the water temperature we raise is generally controlled at 20-26 degrees. The temperature difference between day and night is recommended not to exceed 3 degrees, and the water quality is weakly acidic (ph5-6.5). Moreover, the reproductive strength is the same as that of Pauline Lamp, which is also more difficult.
There are also swallow beauties, in fact, the swallow beauties are called Ishima silver han fish. It is also the most popular fish in the lamp family. The most special thing about Swallow Beauty is its fin shape. Its second dorsal fin and fin ends extend into a flowing filament, and its body color is predominantly silver. Occasionally there are slightly pinkish colors. When the fins are not unfurled, you will see the swallow beauties swimming with their long fins, and when the fins are extended, the dorsal fins are towering, and the ventral fins and tail fins are more cleverly extended backwards, and the swimming posture is charming and very beautiful. Adults are generally around 4 to 5 cm
Most of the lamp fish belong to small fish, can be combined with the grass tank, according to the characteristics of their own grass tank their hobbies to do collocation, at the same time can be matched with some dark background, dark bottom sand, or some sunken wood, so that your grass tank becomes more beautiful, aquatic grass planting this depends on the style and personal preferences of the grass tank, and the environment to do a good job, in their own aquarium, watching the light fish swimming happily, is also a different kind of beauty.
