Ricefield eel, also known as eel, belongs to the bony fish family Gill fishes, which is produced in all parts of our country.

First, how does Monopterus Albus reproduce

Monopterus Albus is propagated by fertilization, the reproductive season is saved from June to August, most of them belong to offspring and parents, and some of them are paired with the previous two generations of male eels. However, in the absence of male eels, a small number of females in the same batch of Monopterus Albus will be converted into males and then reproduce with the same batch of females, which is different from other animals.

Monopterus Albus is of high value and can be used not only for food but also for medicine. Most of the ricefield eels on the market are farmed, especially in the south. In Taiwan, rice field eel slices are generally fried in oil; in some areas, they are also regarded as blood-tonifying and strengthening agents.
