How to raise live shrimp

There are many people will buy some live shrimp from the market, sometimes can not finish, will feed at home for a few days before eating. So how to raise live shrimp?

First, how to raise live shrimp?

If you want to keep it longer, you can spread a layer of fine sand in the aquarium. Keep the water temperature at 18-20 degrees, can cooperate with feeding fresh fish, shellfish and other bait, feeding 2-3 times a day. Change the water every 2-3 days. Live shrimp is not recommended to be kept at home for too long, otherwise nutrients will be consumed. The taste is getting worse, so it's best to eat it early.

Second, how to preserve live shrimp?

1. Refrigerator storage: take out a plastic box, put some wet paper towels or wet towels as the bottom, put the shrimp inside, and then spread a layer of wet paper towels or wet towels on top, in order to make use of the air conditioner in the refrigerator. Let wet paper towels or wet towels maintain a certain degree of humidity to keep shrimp fresh for a long time. But what we should remember is that you can't just put the plastic box in the refrigerator. It will freeze the shrimp to death, which is counterproductive.

two。 Aquaculture method: add an electric pump to the shrimp box or bag for 0K; but this aquaculture method is not the best, because during the period from buying shrimp to formal fishing, the shrimp will swing around in the water, and the raw shrimp will consume a lot of energy and even greatly reduce the activity ability before the fishing ground, and the cold shrimp box is better than the ordinary shrimp bag, because the low temperature is more beneficial to the shrimp. However, no one has an electric pump at home, so choose it casually in any way.

3. Sand method: prepare a plastic box, the size is fixed, as long as you like it. Add some hand pulls and vents, and then cover with a layer of one or two inches of young sand, and the best young sand is to use the sea sand on the beach. In this way, shrimp can be raised for two or three days in this environment, and this method is closest to the natural living environment of Kei Wai shrimp, so it is easy for shrimp to adapt. In winter, it can be kept for four or five days, or even a week, but the sand used has to be washed all day and basked in the sun before shrimp can be raised well. I think this method is more troublesome.

In fact, it is best to buy live shrimp and eat it in time. If you want to raise shrimp, you can directly raise pet shrimp for ornamental use.
