Groupers eat small fish. They are omnivorous fish, and they are carnivorous. Their favorite is some live bait. Although they normally eat some planktonic animals, they also catch some smaller fish as food when they are hungry. When there is enough food, they will not prey on small fish. If breeders want to avoid catching small fish, they'd better ensure that they have enough food.
2. What food should groupers feed1. Animal feed: groupers prefer animal feed. In their infancy, breeders can feed them more planktonic organisms. For example, water fleas, water lice, water earthworms and so on. When they grow up, they can feed some rich shrimp, red worms, loach, tadpoles, Tenebrio molitor, bread worms and other foods. You can also feed some lean meat and animal viscera. These foods are rich in protein and fat, which is of great help to their growth and development.
2. Synthetic feed: Grouper can also be fed some synthetic feed after adulthood. Because synthetic feed is made according to the habits of fish, and its nutrition is comprehensive, it is very suitable for feeding grouper. However, synthetic feed is not easy to digest, so breeders should pay attention not to feed too much.
