Ranchu goldfish breeding in its breeding process is a more important step. For Ranchu who have reached the age of sexual maturity and are in a good state of development, they can naturally mate and then lay fertilized eggs. However, they can also be bred in captivity. This method can also compensate for the low fertilization rate of natural insemination.
In May and June of each year, which is the time for Ranchu breeding, artificial breeding can be carried out. First of all, we need to choose the right parent fish, with healthy, moderate size, age appropriate fish is better. Put them in a shallow basin, then put some tap water in the sun, and then put the selected parent fish in. When breeding, you can hold the female fish in one hand and press their abdomen with your thumb to make them release the eggs. At the same time, the other hand needs to hold the male fish, and then squeeze their cloaca to expel sperm. So that the sperm and the eggs can combine. Fertilized eggs can be artificially incubated, placed separately to ensure that water temperature and water quality are appropriate, and incubation can be successful in a few days.
Generally speaking, Ranchu goldfish can be naturally inseminated and ovulated, can not be artificial ovulation. However, if you worry about not artificial ovulation will cause harm to the health of Ranchu, you can also artificial ovulation.
