How to keep the northern red-finned flycatcher

The northern red-finned flycatcher is an easy species to keep as long as you know how to keep it. The lifespan of the northern red-finned pilot whale is approximately 2 to 3 years. Its body size is approximately 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℃.

The northern red-finned flycatcher has a mild temperament. Therefore, it can be mixed with other Tanago species and small fish.Since the northern red-finned flycatcher is very wary and often lurks in the shadows of objects and water plants, we recommend that you create a place where it can hide. If the mixed swimming partners are territorial, they may not be able to feed well, so care must be taken. If you must include them, please keep them with the utmost care.

Points about spawning

Many people who keep northern red-finned tamarins want to breed them. In the wild, northern red-finned tamarins spawn in 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 male's entire body turns bright blue and green. They also turn purple from the gills to the breast. The female extends a black tube called the oviduct 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.
