The white-finned stickleback is a member of the carp family, Carideae, and belongs to the genus Tanago of the order Carideae, which inhabits the Noo Plain in Aichi Prefecture and the Yodo River system of Lake Biwa, which flows from Shiga Prefecture to Osaka Prefecture. In this article, I would like to explain in detail the characteristics of the white-finned tanago and how to keep it.
What is White Fin Tabila?
The white-finned flycatcher belongs to the family Carabidae of the order Carabidae. The habitat of the white-finned tabila is the Sanyo region east of the Lake Biwa-Yodo River system, which runs from Shiga Prefecture to Osaka Prefecture, and the Takahashi River system in Okayama Prefecture, as well as the Nobi Plain, which extends from Gifu Prefecture to Aichi Prefecture. The white-finned flycatcher belongs to a subspecies endemic to Japan. It is also an endangered species in some places.The white-finned flycatcher has a flattened body shape with a slightly higher body height. The body color of the white-finned fly is silvery white with blue-green and light purple longitudinal stripes on the back of the body. The dorsal and ventral fins, as well as the edges of the rump, are white in coloration.

How to Keep White Fin Tabila
The White-finned Tavira can be an easy species to keep if you know how to keep them. The life span of the white-finned fly is about 2 to 3 years. Its body size is about 8 to 10 cm. However, both lifespan and body size vary depending on the environment in which they are kept and the food they are fed. They prefer slightly alkaline to neutral water quality, with a pH of 7.0 to 8.0. They can live in water temperatures between 5-25℃.

Points to keep in mind when mixing swimmers
The white-finned flycatcher has a timid disposition. Therefore, it can be mixed with other Tanago species and small fish.However, if you are considering spawning, please refrain from mixing them with smaller species of the same Tanago family. This is because when it is time for breeding, they spawn on bivalves, but if they want to spawn on each other, they often fight, and the smaller species may not be able to breed well. Also, since they are timid, be aware that they may be startled and become violent if you suddenly turn on a light or suddenly approach them and make a loud noise.

Types of Medaka Scarlet Medaka [...].
Points about spawning
Many people who keep White-fronted Tavilas want to breed them. In the wild, white-finned tamarins spawn in the spring. When kept in captivity, the timing when the water temperature reaches around 20 degrees Celsius is the signal for spawning. When it is time to spawn, the outer edges of the male's ventral and anal fins turn white and the rest of the body turns black. They also have a dark blue dorsal coloration and a light pink ventral side. The female has a black tube, called the oviduct, extending from the rump.
Tanago lay their eggs on bivalves, whereas other ornamental fish such as killifish and goldfish lay their eggs on water plants. This spawning method is the biggest obstacle in trying to breed Tanago. This is because, unlike aquatic plants, you have to keep bivalves. If the bivalve that the bitterling spawned dies before the eggs hatch, the eggs will die with it. Another difficulty is that there are fewer specialty stores that deal in bivalves compared to aquatic plants. The types of bivalve mollusks used by bitterlings for spawning include the pine cone mussel, the dove mussel, the echinoderm oyster, and the mussel. If you are not sure, we recommend that you ask at a specialty store. If you want to breed bitterlings, the first step is to find bivalves.
When the bivalve is in the aquarium, the female lays her eggs in the gills of the shell using an egg tube. The male fertilizes the eggs by applying sperm to them immediately after the female lays them. The eggs hatch about 3-4 days after spawning, consume the yolk sac (nutrition received from the parents) in about a week, and grow to about 1 cm in about 20 days and emerge from the shell. At this time, the juvenile fish may have a shellfish baby attached to its fins. Just as the bitterling uses the shells, the shells use the bitterlings to expand their habitat. The male may protect the bivalves after laying eggs, but the fry are often eaten, so if you are keeping them in an aquarium, it is recommended to move the shells to another tank after confirming the spawning. Successful spawning of bitterling depends on how well you can keep the bivalves stable, so if you are worried about them or are not confident about handling them, we recommend that you purchase bivalves from a specialty store just before the bitterling spawns.
What to keep in mind when keeping white-finned flycatcher
The white-finned tilefish is a silvery-white river fish with blue-green and light-purple longitudinal stripes on the back of its body. The white-finned tilefish belongs to a subspecies endemic to Japan. It is also endangered in some places.In spring, only the males show their beautiful nuptial color of black and blue-purple, which is very beautiful. They are also a highly recommended river fish in terms of education, as they are an essential part of the traditional Japanese ecosystem. If you are interested in the white-finned flycatcher, we recommend that you take a look at them at a specialty store.
