Breeding methods of puffer fish

Puffer fish is a very lovely fish, but although lovely, it has a very high toxicity, when in danger, it will inflate all of itself, all thorns, so that it can not get close. Although puffer fish has high levels of toxins, most toxins are concentrated in the liver, gonads and blood, so cleaning them up is edible. Puffer fish is rich in protein and rich in nutrition. So how to raise puffer fish? Let's take a look at it.

1. Pond selection

The pond of raising puffer fish should first choose the place where the water source is adequate, there is no water pollution, and the annual water temperature changes little. If you choose brackish water or freshwater aquaculture, it is easier to lift water, the route is not far, and the lift is low to build ponds. The bottom of the pond should not leak and seep. The pond should stay away from noisy places and keep quiet, such as away from urban areas, factories and so on. But to ensure convenient transportation and communication, can effectively withstand the impact of storms or torrential rain.

2. Fish restocking

In order to ensure the quality of puffer fish, we should choose authentic fish species with strong physique, no disease and pain, little difference in specifications and strong traceability as the main breeding objects. After the purchase of fish species, the transport process should be in plastic bags for oxygenated transport. Generally speaking, fish species about four centimeters long can be packed in about 120 fish bags and can be transported for up to 8 hours, with a survival rate of at least 90%. The fish should be disinfected before stocking, and with the growth of the fish, the fish should be caught big and small, and sparse culture should be carried out.

3. Taming and feeding

In the process of breeding, puffer fish should be properly domesticated. After domestication, some minced fish, shrimp or snail meat can be eaten, and these fresh meat can be used as open feed for puffer fish. Then domestication, let it gradually adapt to the breeding environment and bait, wait until they gradually adapt, in the bait mixed with artificial feed, and gradually increase the amount, until the final complete intake of artificial feed. The bait is mainly eel feed, which should be positioned, timed, quantified and qualitatively fed. Usually take food twice a day.

4. Water quality control

Puffer fish is a kind of fish that has great requirements on water quality. it likes clear and clean water quality. Culture ponds should add new water irregularly according to the color, water quality, transparency of pond water, as well as the growth rate and feeding condition of puffer fish. A big change of water is needed every month to improve the water quality. The minimum growth temperature of puffer fish should not be lower than 9 degrees and the highest should not be higher than 32 degrees, so we should always pay attention to the changes of water temperature in ponds, pay attention to heating and cooling them in time, and observe the changes of dissolved oxygen, and oxygen deficiency should be injected in time.

The above is a brief introduction to puffer fish farming methods, although puffer fish farming has a high economic value, but it needs to have a correct breeding method. When breeding, we should pay special attention to the occurrence of the disease, regularly inspect the pond every day, and find that any abnormal situation must be dealt with in a timely manner to prevent unnecessary losses.
