If you want to feed the high back Koi, you must first determine whether it has the genetic gene of high back. Without the gene of high back, it is difficult to feed on food. If you have high-back or giant carp genes, you can try to add some mugwort leaves when feeding, because mugwort leaves contain a lot of nutrients needed by Koi carp. However, it is possible to feed only mugwort leaf koi without eating it, so you can cut up the mugwort leaf and mix it into the food. You can also add earthworms to the feed or feed them directly. Because the smell of earthworms can increase the appetite of Koi. If you eat too much, you can naturally grow a high back.
or not? 1. You can look at the eyes first. If the distance between the eyes is wide and the body length is large, it may be high-backed.
2. Second, look at the fins and tail, especially the pectoral fins. The larger the pectoral fins, the easier it is to develop into a high back, but not too sharp or triangular. Looking at the tail, only koi with a thick caudal peduncle can develop into a high back.
3. Finally, look at the height of the body, which is the highest place of the koi from the side. If the highest place is at the front of the dorsal fin, and the whole dorsal fin is relatively high, it is a high back. If it is in the middle of the dorsal fin, it is not a high back. Because the later development of the dorsal fin is getting higher and higher in the middle, it will be very similar to the human hunchback.
