silver carp eat? Silver carp is one of the common fish in China. There are many silver carp living in the wild environment, as well as many silver carp living in artificial breeding conditions. In terms of feeding habits, silver carp is a kind of filter-feeding fish, and their main food is plankton. It's just that the plankton they eat at different stages is different. When silver carp are in the fry stage, their food is mainly zooplankton, and when they are older and adult, their food is mainly phytoplankton. When
breeding silver carp, it is also necessary to provide them with sufficient food. In this case, they can also mainly eat plankton in the water, at this time, they need to cultivate plankton properly to make the biomass in the water more abundant. In addition, silver carp sometimes uses grass carp feces as food, so we can consider putting silver carp and grass carp together for polyculture. In addition to plankton, synthetic pellet feed is also available, especially some sour feed, which silver carp are very interested in and love to eat, and is also helpful to their growth and development.
above, silver carp is a filter-feeding fish, and its main food is plankton. Plankton includes zooplankton and phytoplankton, and adult silver carp basically feed on phytoplankton. Moss does not belong to phytoplankton, so silver carp will not eat moss, nor can it digest moss. Although silver carp does not eat moss, there are many fish species that eat moss, and many phytophagous fish species can eat moss.
