Artübersicht
Cyprinidae species Acheilognathus polylepis comes from China & East Asia. Like its relatives it depends on living freshwater mussels for breeding, so a fine-sand bed and settled water matter more than décor. It uses the whole water column. Adults reach 6.5–9.6 cm. Loose shoals; groups of 6+ settle quickly. Offer small foods in calm corners and keep the water stable — this fish forgives little else in the way of sloppiness. Maintain 15–25 °C at pH 6.5–7.5. Best suited to a keeper who can match its natural water.
