Environmental requirements for Rana nigromaculata culture

The black-spotted frog is actually what we call frogs in our lives. The black-spotted frog is a beneficial creature that can feed on pests. Therefore, the state explicitly forbids the capture of wild black spot frogs. Therefore, the black spot frogs on the market are mainly farmed, but the environment is also very important when breeding black spot frogs. So the editor today has brought you the environment needed to breed the black spot frog. Let's take a look!

1. Water quality

Water quality is very important to the growth of tadpoles, especially in the tadpole period, the quality of water quality directly affects its survival rate. We should ensure that there is sufficient dissolved oxygen in the water to promote the growth of tadpoles and ensure that tadpoles can metamorphosis successfully. When raising the black spot frog, the water quality standard should be in accordance with the water quality standard of the fishery. Although adult frogs also breathe through the lungs, enough dissolved oxygen will also be of great help to their growth. Then the PH value of the water quality should be controlled at about 7.5, and the salinity should usually be kept below 2.

2. Temperature

Temperature also has a great effect on the growth of black-spotted frog, and the suitable temperature for the growth of black-spotted frog should be controlled at about 25 degrees. The temperature should not be too high or too low. If the temperature is lower than 10 degrees, the vitality of the black spot frog will decrease, and the food intake will be significantly reduced. If it is below 5 degrees, the black spot frog will begin to hibernate. If the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, it will also reduce the vitality of the black spot frog. No matter how high it is, it will cause the black spot frog to die gradually. Therefore, when we are breeding, we must pay attention to the temperature environment of the farm, it is best to be warm in winter and cool in summer, and we should also do a good job in manual temperature control.

3. Humidity

Humidity is water, and the growth of Rana nigromaculata is definitely inseparable from water. The skin structure of the black spot frog is relatively special, it does not have a structure that can prevent water evaporation, so it can only rely on the mucus secreted by the skin surface to maintain the surface humidity. However, this is definitely not enough, so when we choose a breeding site, we must make sure that there is enough water around us and that the water quality is clean enough. When breeding, it is best to create a warm, moist and weedy imitation wild environment for the black spot frog to ensure its growth.

4. Lighting

The growth habits of black spot frogs are rather strange. They are generally inactive during the day and gradually come out to look for food when the sun goes down. So it can be seen that the black spot frog is more afraid of sunlight and can only bear a little scattered light. However, breeding black-spotted frogs also need to provide a certain amount of light to promote the growth of black-spotted frogs, improve the reproduction rate and strengthen metabolism. If the black-spotted frog is in the dark for a long time, it will seriously affect the gonad development of the black-spotted frog. The maturity time is delayed, and in severe cases, the black spot frog will stop producing semen and ovulation.

The above is a brief introduction to the environment needed to raise the black spot frog. The environmental control of breeding black spot frog is very important, which affects the growth of black spot frog, so we must pay more attention to it. That's all for today's introduction.
