Aquarium and water<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The aquarium should have a volume of at least 100 litres. We\nrecommend a water temperature of 18 to 26\u00b0C. This makes it possible to keep\nparadise fish at room temperature without heating. The aquarium water should\nideally be slightly acidic to alkaline (pH value: approx. 6.0 \u2013 8.5). A medium\nhardness level (GH value: approx. 5 \u2013 19\u00b0dH) is also frequently recommended,\nbut these fish can also be kept in softer or harder water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Macropodus opercularis<\/em> should ideally be kept in\npairs. Even through the males can be very territorial, they are generally\nregarded as peaceful fish that are well-suited to large community tanks. They\nmix particularly well with loaches and Asian barbs. Keeping two or more males\nis not recommended as they would fight with one another. Paradise fish tend to\nprefer the upper regions of aquariums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This species prefers dense vegetation in aquariums. The addition\nof several floating plants is also recommended as they act as an anchor for the\nMacropodus opercularis<\/em> when they build their foam nests. Caves and roots\nshould also be used to provide the fish with places to hide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Paradise fish are omnivores but prefer smaller types of food like Tetra Micro Crisps<\/a> or even TetraMin<\/a>. To add variety, you can also feed paradise fish natural foods such as Tetra FreshDelica<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Characteristics & Origin Pe\u0219tele Paradis a fost primul pe\u0219te tropical ornamental introdus \u00een Europa, dup\u0103 Goldfish.
