Red Dragonfish Habits:
Dragonfish is a carnivorous fish, so it has a more serious impact on water quality . Under such a premise, the filtration of the fish tank becomes particularly important. Need to do wet and dry separation, as much as possible, so that the bait residue and fish poop cleaned out, thus reducing the ammonia content of the water, to maintain water quality. The white cotton for wet/dry separation needs to be cleaned or replaced regularly.
As a juvenile, the red dragon's fins are a pale golden green color, the edges of the scales are slightly pink, and the mouth is light red. As an adult, the body is golden yellow with a slight golden-red scale frame around the edges of the scales, the mouth and gill covers have special crimson markings, and all fins are crimson in color. The color of the fins and scale frames of each part can be classified as orange, pink, crimson and blood red, and the whole body shines.
