CATDOLL: How to control the amount and time of earthworm feeding?

1. How to control the amount and time of earthworm feeding?

The amount of food for tropical fish should be determined according to the size and number of fish.

1-2 times, and the amount of feed should be enough to be eaten within 5-10 minutes. When raising tropical fish in large quantities, it is necessary to feed 2-3 times a day; for breeding fish in the breeding period, it is generally fed 3-4 times a day. Since tropical fish are small in size and have limited appetite, it is appropriate to feed 70% to 80% full each time. Increasing the number of feedings can promote rapid growth of turtles. For most species of tropical fish, turtle worms are the main feed. When the bait is mainly worms, the amount of feed should be controlled to be eaten within 10-30 minutes. When the bait is mainly earthworms, the amount of feed should be controlled to be eaten within 5-10 minutes, and each person feeding should be 100% full.

2-3 times, the water earthworms fed should be rinsed clean. When the bait is mainly small fish and shrimp, in principle, it should be fed more often and less. When tropical fish change new bait, the amount of feed should be gradually increased from a small amount. Before transporting tropical fish, stop feeding for 1-2 days.

Feeding amount and feeding method

1. The amount of feed is determined based on the stocking specifications and quantity of fish species, the planned growth multiples of predatory fish and the feed coefficient.

That is: feed amount = stocking weight × growth multiple × feed coefficient. The total amount of feed needed for the whole year can be calculated in this way, so as to arrange the beverage plan and funds needed for the whole year, avoid funding and feed gaps, and make preparations early. Generally, July, August and September are the peak growth periods, and the feed amount accounts for 65% of the entire growth process. During this period, seize the opportunity and prepare enough feed to ensure the normal growth of fish.

2. The daily feeding amount is calculated based on the annual planned feeding amount and the proportion of each month. It can also be calculated based on the 1%-5% increase in fish weight to get the average monthly feeding amount. Generally, the average amount is in the middle of the month, less in the first ten days, and more in the second ten days.

3. Daily feeding frequency and time For summer flower fry, the water temperature is high and the individuals are small, so the daily feeding frequency should be no less than 5-6 times. From July to September, the fish are most active in feeding and grow fastest, so the daily feeding frequency should be 4-5 times. After October, as the water temperature drops, the feeding frequency gradually decreases until the fish no longer eat. Each feeding time should be no less than 20 minutes, in order to ensure that the fish are 80% full without wasting food.

4. Feeding principles and methods Even, sufficient, and good are the general principles. Even means feeding evenly every day according to the needs of fish, which can not only prevent diseases and ensure normal growth, but also improve the efficiency of feed utilization; sufficient means the most appropriate amount of feed to meet the needs of fish; good means the quality of the feed is high, nutritious, palatable, fresh, etc. Timing, quantitative, and positioning are our basic feeding methods. At the same time, we can flexibly determine the number and amount of feeding by combining the weather, water quality, and the eating and activity conditions of fish. In summary, in order to achieve good economic benefits in aquaculture, we believe that the use of feed mainly depends on quality, not price (of course, high quality and low price are better). Under the condition of superior funds and growth conditions, farmers should choose high-quality feed and use scientific feeding methods.

3. What is the feeding rate for 500 carps?

1. Calculate the annual, monthly and daily feeding amounts based on the net weight gain of fish and the feed coefficient.

1. The annual feeding amount is calculated based on the net weight gain of fish and the feed coefficient, that is, the stocking amount of fish × net weight gain × feed coefficient. The net weight gain of fish is generally 4 to 5 times, the feed coefficient of complete feed is generally 2 to 2.5 times, and that of mixed feed is 3 to 3.5 times. If several feeds are used alternately, the usage is calculated according to their respective feed coefficients, and then the sum is the annual feeding amount.

2. Monthly feeding amount is the annual feeding amount x the feed distribution percentage of the month. Generally, 1% of the annual feeding amount is fed in March, 4% of the annual feeding amount is fed in April, 8% of the annual feeding amount is fed in May, 15% of the annual feeding amount is fed in June, 20% of the annual feeding amount is fed in July, August and September, 9% of the annual feeding amount is fed in October, and 3% of the annual feeding amount is fed in November.

3. The daily feeding amount is divided into the first, middle and last ten days according to the monthly feeding amount. From March to August, the daily feeding amount in the first ten days is 80% of the daily average of the monthly feeding amount, the middle ten days is the daily average, and the last ten days is 120% of the daily average. From September onwards, the first ten days is 120% of the daily average of the monthly feeding amount, the middle ten days is the daily average, and the last ten days is 80% of the daily average.

2. Determine the daily feeding amount based on the number of fish in the pond.

When the water temperature is between 15℃ and 20℃, the daily feeding amount is 1% to 3% of the fish body weight. When the water temperature is above 20℃, the daily feeding amount is 3% to 5% of the fish body weight.

3. Observe the fish's feeding habits and determine the daily feeding amount.

This method is easy to operate and simple. After feeding, the fish are generally allowed to finish eating within 2 to 3 hours or 80% of the fish are allowed to swim away after eating. This method can also be used in combination with method 2, that is, the daily feeding amount is calculated using method 2. After feeding, the amount can be increased or decreased as appropriate according to the time when the fish finish eating and the situation of the fish leaving, so as to achieve the optimal feeding amount.

In addition to following the above methods, you also need to feed evenly, not too much or too little, so as to prevent the fish from being full or hungry at times, which will affect digestion, absorption and growth, and can also easily cause fish diseases. Even feeding can also improve feed utilization and reduce feed coefficient. It is best to calculate a daily feeding rate table based on fish growth and water temperature, and then determine the specific amount of feeding per day based on weather and water temperature. In addition, you must feed flexibly according to your own breeding model, breeding level, water quality conditions, etc., to maximize the benefits of the feed.

4. How to install a fish pond bait feeder?

Installation: Choose a suitable location for the feeder, which should face the open side of the fish pond so that the feeding surface is wide; the water level should be deep to facilitate the fish to scramble for food. Two ponds can share one feeder, and the chassis can be made movable, which can be turned in a direction; adjust the distance and interval of feeding.

5. What is the definition of feeding rate?

The feeding rate refers to the percentage of daily feed intake to the body weight of farmed fish, also known as the daily feeding rate.

6. What does saturated feeding mean?

Saturated baiting is a term for killing rats. It means that the more the better, the more poison bait is placed, the more rats will be killed.

Saturated baiting refers to the method of applying the first generation of anticoagulant rodenticide baits. That is, after the baits are placed, they are checked the next day and the losses are replenished. If there are no more rats eating them, they are replenished twice as much until there are no more rats eating them.

7. What is the feeding rate of whiteleg shrimp?

Since white shrimp have a high conversion efficiency for bait, the daily feeding rate can be 3.1%-5.1%, and 6.0%-12.0% for shrimp below 6 cm. Feed 4 times a day (5:00, 9:00, 18:00, 23:00, and the feeding ratio is 2.0:2.0:3.0:3.0). The daily feeding amount should be flexibly controlled according to the specific situation, and the shrimp should be eaten within 1-1.5 hours after feeding. The feed coefficient should be controlled at 1.0-1.2.

8. What is the formula for calculating feeding rate?

1. Calculate the annual, monthly and daily feeding amounts based on the net weight gain of fish and the feed coefficient.

1. The annual feeding amount is calculated based on the net weight gain of fish and the feed coefficient, that is, the stocking amount of fish × net weight gain × feed coefficient. The net weight gain of fish is generally 4 to 5 times, the feed coefficient of complete feed is generally 2 to 2.5 times, and that of mixed feed is 3 to 3.5 times. If several feeds are used alternately, the usage is calculated according to their respective feed coefficients, and then the sum is the annual feeding amount.

2. Monthly feeding amount is the annual feeding amount x the feed distribution percentage of the month. Generally, 1% of the annual feeding amount is fed in March, 4% of the annual feeding amount is fed in April, 8% of the annual feeding amount is fed in May, 15% of the annual feeding amount is fed in June, 20% of the annual feeding amount is fed in July, August and September, 9% of the annual feeding amount is fed in October, and 3% of the annual feeding amount is fed in November.

3. The daily feeding amount is divided into the first, middle and last ten days according to the monthly feeding amount. From March to August, the daily feeding amount in the first ten days is 80% of the daily average of the monthly feeding amount, the middle ten days is the daily average, and the last ten days is 120% of the daily average. From September onwards, the first ten days is 120% of the daily average of the monthly feeding amount, the middle ten days is the daily average, and the last ten days is 80% of the daily average.

2. Determine the daily feeding amount based on the number of fish in the pond.

When the water temperature is between 15℃ and 20℃, the daily feeding amount is 1% to 3% of the fish body weight. When the water temperature is above 20℃, the daily feeding amount is 3% to 5% of the fish body weight.

In addition, you must feed flexibly according to your own breeding model, breeding level, water quality conditions, etc., to maximize the benefits of feed.

9. How much bait should be put into a 10-acre fish pond?

The amount of bait fed to a ten-acre fish pond is generally about 100 kilograms. Because every time we feed the fish, they will rush to grab the food, so the density of the fish is very important. We just estimate conservatively that we feed ten kilograms of bait to each acre of land, and then throw the second wave after the fish have eaten it. Therefore, the amount of bait fed has a lot to do with the temperature of the day and the condition of the fish.

10. What is the best time to feed crucian carp?

The best time to catch carp is in the morning. Carp are more active at this time and are looking for food everywhere.
