泥鳅养殖技术问答(四)——生物学特性（Questions and answers of loach breeding techniques (four) - Biological Characteristics） 20 what are the biological characteristics of the loach? Loach is inferior to the mouth and the upper edge of the jaws consists only of the jaws. Must be 3 or more. There are 1 rows of pharyngeal teeth. The front end of the bladder wrapped in spine bone specialized capsule. The bladder after the room is often degraded, which is relatively developed, free from the abdominal cavity. Inhabits ponds loach, except gill, skin breathing, swallowing air also swim to the surface for intestinal breathing, so to live in low dissolved oxygen in water. The distribution of loach in Southeast Asia most Nemacheilinae many species distributed in the tropics, but there are also individual species (e.g. triplophgsa fish) distributed in the alpine plateau, even found a place at an altitude of 5200 meters has its distribution, to become the worlds highest fish distribution. Like most loach habitat in the bottom for the stone bottom or sand bottom and periphyton more water or river water bodies, a few species in the lakes and ponds. Loach mostly omnivorous fish, but the animal intestinal food was higher. The species inhabiting the river feed mainly on invertebrates and insect larvae such as the hooked shrimp, the larvae and the aquatic worms. The species that inhabit the lake feed mainly on copepods and the like. Live loach in pond, body length of 5 cm below the individual, eating animal food, such as rotifers, Cladocera, body length 5 ~ 8 cm, change from ingestion of animal feed is omnivorous, feeding in crustaceans, insect larvae, snails, earthworms and other shallow water benthic invertebrate and also, feeding higher plants and organic debris etc.. Habitat at high altitude Qinghai Tibet Plateau triplophgsa of some species, to eat plant food, namely scraping hardy periphyton (mainly diatoms, cyanobacteria and algae), in order to adapt to the environment of poor animal food here.
