1. How big can the Dutch phoenix fish grow? Dutch phoenix fish can grow to about 6-8 cm.

Their size is usually affected by the growing environment.

If they are provided with enough exercise space and nutritious bait, they will be bigger. If the environment is crowded and the food quality is poor, they may not grow up.

Dutch phoenix fish generally live for 2-3 years.

If they get sick or mix with some unsuitable fish, they may also die prematurely.

It is worth noting that due to the poor drug resistance of this fish, it is necessary to pay attention to disease prevention when raising.

Treat as soon as possible after you get sick, or you will die early.

In addition, in the process of feeding, we should also pay attention to the maintenance of water quality and water temperature, and do not arbitrarily polyculture.

2. What food does the Dutch phoenix fish eat? The feed of the Dutch phoenix fish is mixed, and both artificial feed and fresh active bait can be fed.

Rotifers and paramecium can be fed at seedling stage, and other palatable small animals, such as cladocera, insect larvae, water worms, etc. Are ideal bait when they grow up.

You can also feed artificially made chilled feed or dry feed.

It should be noted that the water quality should be kept clean before and after feeding, and it is best to fish out the food residue in the fish tank after each feeding to prevent water pollution.
