Last Updated: 2024/11/24, River eel is a carnivorous fish. Generally speaking, river eels feed on clams, shellfish, clams, fish, shrimp and animal carcasses. In artificial feeding, artificial formula feed can be put in, but the protein content must be more than 45%. River eel is a nocturnal animal, mainly foraging for small natural animals. In artificial feeding, the stocking density is high, which can not be satisfied only by natural bait, so it must be supplemented by artificial feed. At the beginning of feeding artificial feed, the river crab is not used to it and does not come to eat, so it must go through the stage of "domestication" to make it accustomed to eating artificial feed and develop the habit of eating regularly and in a fixed position.

At the beginning of feeding artificial feed, the river crab is not used to it and does not come to eat, so it must go through the stage of "domestication" to make it accustomed to eating artificial feed and develop the habit of eating regularly and in a fixed position. The method of "domestication" is as follows: in the evening, the meat of clam, fresh fish and so on are placed in the feed basket and sunk to the bottom of the pond to induce the river eel to come to eat. A few days later, when more than half of the river eel is used to eating in a fixed position, the feed composition and feeding time are gradually changed from the original evening to the morning, and the feed basket is gradually moved to the water surface to attract the river eel to the surface to eat. Develop the habit of timing and positioning feeding.
