Hairtail is very fierce, wild hairtail can catch a lot of food, many of which are small animals, such as small fish and shrimp, and sometimes catch some cephalopods. They can even cannibalize, which occurs when food is scarce. A small percentage of hairtail is also farmed. When breeding, they need to provide food, such as small fish and shrimp as their staple food, or a little artificial fish food.

1. What does

hairtail eat? Hairtail is one of the common fish in China. It belongs to marine fish. Wild hairtail is widely distributed in the sea area of China. From the character point of view, hairtail is a more ferocious fish, their ability to catch food is relatively strong, the efficiency of catching food is relatively high, is a carnivorous fish, many animals in the water can become their food. If they are wild hairtails living in the sea, they can catch fish and shrimp as their food, which are their staple food, and they sometimes catch cephalopods. The ferocity of hairtail is also reflected in cannibalism, when food is insufficient, they will eat their smaller counterparts.

In addition to these wild hairtails, artificial breeding of hairtails has been successful in China, but generally speaking, it is not particularly large, because the cost of breeding them is high. One reason for the higher cost is the need to provide them with adequate food. They like to eat meat, so small fish and shrimp can be their staple food, and because of the large appetite of hairtail, the cost is relatively high. In addition, they sometimes eat feed, but they prefer to eat meat in comparison. In the process of breeding, we must provide them with enough food, otherwise they will be cannibalistic.
