When raising koi at home, many people will want them to breed by themselves, which is OK. Domesticated koi can be bred by themselves, but certain prerequisites need to be met. First of all, the age problem, only to the appropriate age, Koi can reproduce themselves. Specifically, males need to be at least 2 years old to reproduce, and females need to be at least 3 years old to reproduce. After meeting the conditions of age, and then whether the surrounding environment is suitable, only under suitable conditions, Koi can reproduce themselves.
Specifically, there are many aspects that need attention. For example, water quality, water quality should be kept clean; For example, the water temperature must not be lower than 18 degrees, if the temperature is too low, it will lead to reproductive failure; There are also oxygen, light and other issues that need attention. However, in the process of Koi breeding, some manual operations are also needed. For example, we need to prepare a breeding pond, then put male and female fish in the ratio of 2:1, and then keep the surrounding environment suitable for them to reproduce naturally.
Generally speaking, the breeding of koi carp will be within a fixed period of time in a year. In the appropriate breeding period, the success rate of reproduction will be relatively high. Specifically, the breeding period of Koi is generally in April-May, which is the best breeding season, it is best to let them breed in this period.
