1. Fish and shrimp: The staple food of Arowana can choose some aquatic animals, such as small fish, shrimp, tadpoles, loach, small octopus, etc. These foods are rich in protein and fat, and feeding Arowana can also arouse their interest in predation and make them more lively.
2, insects: Breeders can also give them some insects, such as crickets, cockroaches, grasshoppers and so on. However, these insects are easy to carry parasites or bacteria, so breeders should not feed them for a long time, but feed them in small quantities as snacks.
3. Insects: Some red worms, barley worms, Tenebrio molitor, bread worms, centipedes, etc. can also be fed together at ordinary times. These insects contain more protein and can supplement them with more nutrition.
4. Synthetic feed: If there is not enough time, you can also choose some synthetic feed to feed.
2. How often should Arowana be fedArowana can be fed 1-2 times a day or once every 1-2 days. The specific feeding frequency can be determined according to their body size. Under normal feeding conditions, Arowana with a length of 30 cm can be fed 1-2 times a day, and each time it is fed to 80% full. At this time, they have a large demand for food, but their appetite and digestion ability are not strong, so they need to be fed in small quantities and many times.
When their body length reaches more than 30 cm, the feeding frequency can be reduced, and it can be fed once every 1-2 days. If the water temperature is low, it can be fed once every 2-3 days. Because their demand for food will decrease and their appetite will increase, they do not need to feed frequently.
