Culture methods of anchovies

Anchovy is a species with economic value and ornamental value. It is widely cultivated in the South China Sea. Because the industry chain is small, many fish households do not know how to breed anchovies. Let's learn how to breed them together with Xiaobian.

1. Temperature control

Water temperature is a factor worthy of attention for anchovies. Due to the tropical nature of the environment where anchovies originate, the water temperature of the selected place must be high. Water temperature control at 18° to 25° around the most appropriate. Anchovies can adapt to the lowest air temperature of about 10℃, normal growth temperature of 18℃ above, and the highest temperature should not exceed 35℃. Too high a temperature can lead to frequent fish damage, too low a temperature can lead to death.

2. Fish pond management

When setting up the fish box, it should be divided into seedling pond and adult fish pond. One adult fish pond can be divided into 4-6 juvenile fish ponds. Generally, the depth of the juvenile fish pond is about 1.2 meters, and the water added is about 0.8-1 meters. The depth of the adult fish pond is controlled at 1.5 meters. Fish pond and other normal fish pond almost good. Disinfect fry before putting them in, then clean them up, expose them to sunlight for about a week, then put them in water for precipitation for about 1 day, and finally put them into the pool.

3. Feed selection

Anchovies are relatively omnivorous fish and can feed more things. If you are prepared to sell ornamental fish, feed them mainly. If you sell edible fish, you need to feed some insects rich in nutrients regularly. The more common feeding insects are abundant larvae, red nematodes, daphnia and so on. Conditions can also be chopped into small pieces of earthworms to feed, which is relatively high quality feed. If you feed private chat, try to feed pellets as much as possible.

4. Feeding

Anchovies are a small fish, so you don't need to feed them too much each time you eat, but you need to eat more meals, usually 3-4 times a day, and reduce them appropriately in winter. The amount of each feeding is maintained for about 15-20 minutes per 20 square meters, or it is stopped when there are few fish to eat. Feeding insects can be done once every 2 days. Feeding insects must be treated with parasite removal and disease prevention to prevent infection of anchovies.

The above is some of the relevant information about anchovy farming, fish households friends can refer to the above information, I hope to bring help to everyone. More information can be found on our website.
