Carp is a kind of freshwater fish, which can be cultured artificially. The 5 cm carp is still at a relatively young stage, so the growth rate is relatively fast. Generally speaking, it can grow 10-20 centimeters after one year of cultivation. That is to say, the body length of 5 cm carp is between 15 and 25 cm after one year.
Specifically, there are many factors that affect the growth rate of carp. For example, the suitability of the environment will affect the growth rate of carp. When carp live in an environment with suitable water temperature and clean water quality, carp grow fast, 5 cm carp can grow about 20 cm after a year. When the water temperature, water quality or oxygen content in the water are not suitable, or food is not enough, the growth and development of carp will be hindered, at this time their growth rate is relatively slow, after a year can only grow about 10 cm, sometimes even less than 10 cm.
Carp is omnivorous fish, animal and plant feed can be used as their food, but different foods contain different amounts of nutrition, the role of its growth promotion is also different. If you want carp to grow fast, you should choose nutritious food. Among all foods, animal feed contains the most protein, which can be used as the main food of carp, such as small fish, shrimp, earthworms and so on. In addition, the effect of some high-protein feed is better, such as silkworm chrysalis, bean cake and fish meal, etc.
