Description
Description
The Pink Medaka Rice Fish (Oryzias latipes) is a popular freshwater fish species in the aquarium hobby. Here are the specific requirements for keeping this fish:
-
Temperature: The Pink Medaka Rice Fish thrives in a temperature range of 68°F to 78°F (20°C to 26°C). It is important to maintain a stable temperature within this range to ensure the well-being and health of the fish.
-
Minimum Tank Size: Due to their small size, Pink Medaka Rice Fish can be housed in relatively small aquariums. A minimum tank size of 5 gallons (19 liters) is recommended for a small group of these fish. However, providing a larger tank, such as a 10-gallon (38 liters) tank or larger, can offer more swimming space and provide a better environment for the fish to exhibit their natural behaviors.
These fish are generally peaceful and can be kept in a community tank with other small, non-aggressive fish species. Providing adequate filtration, regular water changes, and a well-balanced diet are essential for maintaining the health and vibrancy of Pink Medaka Rice Fish in captivity. Additionally, creating a well-planted aquarium with some open swimming areas mimics their natural habitat and helps in keeping them healthy and stress-free.
