Can koi and carp be polycultured? What should we pay attention to in polyculture

Koi and carp can be polycultured. Koi color Cyprinidae fish, with strong physique, bright colors, changeable patterns and high ornamental value. Carp is a common species of edible fish. They all belong to the family Cyprinidae. However, in the process of polyculture, the two individuals should be selected. If the gap is too large, one side may not be able to grab food and cause malnutrition. The most important thing is to avoid cross-infection in the polyculture of two kinds of fish.

1. Can koi and carp be mixed

? Koi and carp can be mixed. They both belong to Cyprinidae and have the same requirements for water quality. In polyculture, fish of the same size should be selected, and in order to avoid cross-infection, there should be a Kalijing fish pond filtration system.

Water quality and water temperature: Water is the first step to raise fish well. Water is as important to fish as air is to people. Koi and carp are very mild. They can survive in water of 2 to 30 degrees. They are most suitable for living in water of 21 to 27 degrees. They like alkaline water. Water with low hardness should be changed regularly.
2. Polyculture technology: If the technology of polyculture is not in place, the koi and carp will be injured. Therefore, it is necessary to learn the breeding technology and understand their living habits and temperament, so that the polycultured fish can thrive.
3. Feeding tools: Do not mix too many koi and carp in the fish tank, because their growth rate is very fast. When they are just bought, they are only tens of centimeters, but later they will grow bigger and bigger, which will eventually make the fish have no free space environment.
4. Food: Cyprinidae fish is a kind of fish with miscellaneous feeding habits, such as Chironomid larvae, screws, plant seeds, etc. New fish friends should not plant aquatic plants in the fish tank to avoid being eaten by fish. In addition, the broken aquatic plants will pollute the water quality and easily produce bacteria, which is not conducive to the growth of polyculture fish.
