The water temperature is most suitable for their growth when the water temperature is 24 to 27 degrees Celsius; the pH of the water is Neutral water is suitable, with a pH value of 6.5 to 7.2; under artificial breeding conditions, the dissolved oxygen content is best maintained at 5 mg/l. In addition, attention should also be paid to controlling the content of some toxins in the water quality. Residual chlorine 0mg/l, nitrite 0mg/l, nitrate 5mg/l, ammonia 0mg/l, and phosphate 0mg/l are used as standards for testing.

The ratio of water to bottom sand is as follows. 5:1 is appropriate. In order to maintain sufficient oxygen in the tank and provide a place for fish to hide, aquatic plants with low CO2 demand, such as hornwort and black algae, should be appropriately implanted. In addition, in order to provide sufficient light to facilitate photosynthesis of aquatic plants, it is best to equip a small glass tank with a small lamp with soft light.
