The lavender thorn is fierce. The adult body length of the lavender thorn can reach 21 cm. It is commonly known as the moss scraper. Although the characteristics of the lavender thorn in different regions will be slightly different, due to the anal fin of the lavender thorn Both the tail fin and the caudal fin are similar in color to lavender, which is purple, hence the name lavender tango. This kind of fish used algae or other plants in the water as its food in its original waters. They should also be fed some plant-based feed when raising them at home. You can choose filamentous algae or other plants to feed them. Plant feed can enhance their immunity to a certain extent.
They have relatively high requirements for water quality. In breeding, the water quality ratio is more troublesome. Home breeding requires water with a pH of 8.1-8.4, and the specific gravity of seawater should be between 1.020-1.025. When raising at home, the water temperature in the aquarium should be between 23-28°C. When the temperature exceeds 30°C, it will seriously affect the appetite of lavender hangings and hinder their normal growth.
