Betta is a tropical fish also known as betta or guppy. The following are the breeding methods and some precautions for running dragons:


1. Fish tank selection:

   - Dromosaurs can usually be bred in small fish tanks. The capacity of a fish tank suitable for a single-tailed dragon should be between 5 and 10 liters. If it is a multi-tailed dragon, a larger fish tank is required.

   - Choose a fish tank with a transparent lid to prevent the dragon from jumping out of the container.

   - There should be enough water in the fish tank so that the dragon has enough swimming space.


2. Water quality management:

   - Running dragons require clean, chlorine-free and warm water conditions. Treat tap water with a dechlorinator, or use distilled or reverse osmosis water.

   - The fish tank water temperature should be maintained between 76°F (24°C) and 82°F (28°C). A thermostat can be used to control water temperature.

   -Replace part of the water regularly to keep the water quality fresh.

   - Use a fish tank filter to help maintain good water quality.


3. Feed and feeding:

   - The dragon is a carnivorous fish that mainly feeds on fish meat, insects and other small invertebrates. Fish pellets or freeze-dried insects suitable for your dragon can be purchased in stores.

   - Feed in divided doses, twice a day is appropriate. Each feeding should be an appropriate amount. Do not overfeed to avoid water quality problems and bloating.


4. Fish tank decoration:

   - Provide appropriate hiding places and swimming space, and you can place some decorations in the fish tank, such as plants, rocks and caves.

   - Take care to choose aquarium decorations that will not harm the fins and tail of the dragon.


5. Monitor health:

   - Observe the behavior and appearance of the dragon regularly and stay tuned to their activity level, appetite and breathing.

   - If you notice any abnormalities, such as mucus covering, scarring, eating problems, or abnormal breathing, consider seeking veterinary help.


6. Raising a dragon alone:

   - The dragon is a fish with strong personalities, and fights between males may occur. Therefore, it is best to keep the dragon in a fish tank alone to avoid fights and injuries.


These are some basic methods and precautions about breeding dragons. Keep in mind that different dragons may have different needs, so adjust your breeding environment and methods accordingly.
