Paradise Fish 4cm

£5.49£10.00

Description

Paradise Fish are known from a huge array of heavily-vegetated lowland habitats, including small slow-flowing streams and irrigation channels, to paddy fields, marshes, and the sluggish backwaters of large rivers. These labyrinth fish are even known to colonise fairly stagnant standing waters with low oxygen content, due to their specialised atmospheric air-breathing ability. The home aquarium should be spacious and furnished with plenty of driftwood and tall plants which will grow to create a good amount of surface cover. Floating plants can also be included to help diffuse bright lighting, and a dark substrate and background will help these fish to feel secure and show their best colours. Try to create a maze-like habitat with plenty of visual barriers to break up lines of sight, as these fish can be rather territorial.
