CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Catfish farming conditions and requirements, what kind of feed do they usually eat?

Catfish farming requires clean water. It is better to build a pond in a place with sufficient running water. In the pond, you can plant a moderate amount of water plants that will not spread. Two weeks before stocking, drain the water in the pond, add quicklime for disinfection, and soak the fry in light salt water for 20 minutes for sterilization before stocking. The specifications of stocking fry should be unified, and generally 20,000 fry are stocked per mu.

1. Catfish farming conditions and requirements

1. Catfish farming requires clean water sources. Try to build ponds in places with sufficient running water sources. The water retention of the pond should be better and it should not be permeable. Plant a moderate amount of non-spreading aquatic plants in the pond to provide a habitat.

2. Drain the water in the pond two weeks before stocking, then clean the entire pond with quicklime solution. After soaking for a week, wash the pond again. Fill the pond with clean water until 2 days before stocking. Before stocking, the fry should be soaked in light salt water or other disinfectant solution for 20 minutes for sterilization.

3. Generally, 20,000 fry are placed in one acre of pond. The size of the fry should be uniform, not too large or too small, to avoid uneven growth. It is generally better to place them at noon when the temperature is suitable, so that they can easily adapt to the environment.

4. You can feed the fish a few hours after they are released. You can make some grains into powder, add water and knead them into balls before feeding. This can prevent them from loosening too quickly. You can also feed some shell meat and snail meat, but they need to be chopped before feeding.

5. You can add fertilizers in the water to cultivate natural bait for fish. You should pay attention to changing the water in time and keep the water flowing. You should prevent the fish from escaping on rainy days and pay attention to increasing oxygen in hot weather to keep sufficient oxygen in the water.

2. What kind of feed do catfish usually eat?

1. Catfish generally eat compound feed made of water fleas, water earthworms, cooked pig blood, fish meal, silkworm pupae, etc. The water quality can be fertilized about 7 days before stocking the fry. Some plants similar to water lilies can be planted on the water surface to provide shade.

2. The water in the fish pond generally needs to be replaced every 10-15 days, usually 1/3 of the water volume is enough. When the water quality is yellow-green, it means the water quality is relatively good. If you find that catfish often jump out of the water, you need to turn on the oxygenation equipment in time.

3. During the breeding process, the feed should be reasonable. The feed should not be too much each time to avoid catfish eating too much and causing esophageal obstruction. When feeding catfish in the seedling stage, the feed should be chopped up, so that it is easier for the young fish to eat and digest. At the age of 2 months, you can add granular feed. To ensure balanced nutrition, you can also add some protein to the feed.
