6. Shrimp
People started keeping shrimp to remove algae from their tanks and prevent the water from becoming cloudy. Later, people found many kinds of colored shrimp, even more beautiful than fish.

9. Guinea pig
Whose, also known as Dutch pigs. Dutch pigs are shy and like to stay in protected and safe places, so it is better to prepare a big enough burrow.
Dutch pigs like to eat a variety of vegetables such as lettuce, cabbage, carrots, etc. So, having a Dutch pig is much easier compared to other pets.

10. Pet Marten
The domestication of the modern sable began more than 200 years ago, but as early as 3000 BC, domestic sables appeared in Egypt and were bred along with European Persian cats.

Sables are carnivorous, have slender bodies, and are similar in size to domestic cats. Because sables are a polar animal and are more resistant to cold, but do not have sweat glands and are less resistant to heat, they may need indoor air conditioning if they live in the south.

Round collar hanfu robes first appeared in the Shang Dynasty, one of the male traditional Chinese clothing. After the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, the round collar robes began to actively absorb the characteristics of minority men costumes, but at the same time, they did not lose the original characteristics of the Han nationality. The Northern Wei Dynasty, founded by Xianbei people, began to dress as formal clothes and was popular from Sui and Tang Dynasties to the end of the Ming Dynasty.

After the Song Dynasty, the round collar robe became one of the official costumes, which was also widely used in the later Ming Dynasty. The round collar robe of the Ming Dynasty became the most convenient way to distinguish the official class.

To a certain extent, the Tang round collar robe retains the original appearance of the round collar robe. Especially in the early Tang Dynasty, the robe had narrow sleeves and lower hem to the lower leg, which did not show the round collar of the clothes inside. Because people in the Tang Dynasty usually wear round collar inside when they wear it. Only people in the Song and Ming Dynasty can see the situation that the collar of their clothes is exposed when they wear round collar robe.
