Thrush fish, also called carp, is a very common ornamental fish, which is not only full of gas field, but also very easy to raise. In the process of raising thrush, many friends will consider mixed culture with other fish, because mixed culture can increase the interest of the fish tank and effectively use the space of the fish tank. So, what can thrush mix with? The following is an introduction to several aspects:

1, which can be used with fish of similar size.

In the process of polyculture, fish similar to thrush can be selected, such as koi fish, grass carp and crucian carp. These fish are similar in size to thrush fish, and can achieve a relatively harmonious polyculture effect. In addition, the feeding habits of these fish are similar to those of thrush, and they can share the same fish food, which reduces the difficulty of feeding caused by polyculture.

2, can be mixed with fish with similar thinking and behavior habits.

In addition to similar body shape, you can also choose fish with similar thinking and behavior habits of thrush. Such as rat fish, rays, etc. These fish are very sensitive and active, and can build a prosperous polyculture ecology with thrush. In the process of polyculture, fish tanks can be arranged reasonably according to the behavior characteristics of fish to ensure the smooth progress of polyculture.

3. It can be mixed with fish with similar water quality conditions.

When choosing mixed fish culture, we should also pay attention to whether the water quality of this fish is similar to that of thrush. Such as koi fish and grass carp. They are all hypoxia-tolerant fish species. When mixed with thrush, the layout of cyanobacteria and plants can be reasonably adjusted according to the water quality conditions required by thrush to ensure that the water in the fish tank is in a relatively stable environmental state.

4. It can be matched with fish with different body shapes and eating habits.

In the process of choosing mixed fish culture, you can also choose fish with different body shapes and eating habits from thrush. Such as tiger fish, mandarin fish and so on. Tiger fish is a carnivorous freshwater fish, while Siniperca chuatsi is a fish whose main food is algae and plankton. These two kinds of fish and thrush have different eating habits and can provide more food sources in the fish tank. However, in the process of polyculture of this kind of fish, we should also pay attention to moderately controlling the number of fish to avoid abnormal phenomena such as mutual feeding between fish.

To sum up, thrush can be mixed with many kinds of fish, but in the process of mixed culture, it needs to be screened reasonably according to many factors such as fish's body shape, thinking and behavior habits, adaptability to water quality conditions, eating habits and so on. Only when fish can live in harmony can we really achieve the good effect of polyculture.
