Carp like muddy water. First of all, they are timid and afraid of light. Moving in muddy water can make them feel more secure. Secondly, they are bottom fish, and they all live underwater when they are in the wild. When they move, they turn over the mud at the bottom of the water. Finally, they have the habit of turning over the soil, and they often look for food in the soil, so carp prefer muddy water.
When raising carp artificially, if you raise carp in a fish tank, you can spread a layer of sand on the bottom of the fish tank. If it is cultured in fish ponds, some silt or sand can be placed under the water, which can better simulate the wild environment.
2. How to raise carp1. Water temperature: Carp has strong adaptability to water temperature, and they can grow in water temperature between 6-30 ℃. However, their appetite and activity will be affected when the water temperature is too low, so it is best for breeders to keep the water temperature at about 20 ℃.
2. Water quality: Carp has low requirements for water quality, and its PH value is kept between 6.3-8.4. In the usual feeding process, it is best to change the water once a week. The amount of water changed each time cannot exceed one third of the total amount of water.
3. Regular inspection: When raising carp, it is necessary to check the body of carp regularly to avoid diseases. If conditions permit, it is best to disinfect them once every once in a while, which can reduce their chances of getting sick.
