Carp is a kind of freshwater fish. They can be farmed artificially. They can be raised at home or in a large scale in aquaculture ponds or fish ponds. Because carp are a kind of edible fish, it is very common to breed them on a large scale. The adaptability of carp is good, and the adaptability of water temperature, oxygen content and other factors is good, so the difficulty of breeding them is not particularly high.
1. Culture pond or fish tank: As mentioned above, carp can be raised at home or in a large area. A culture pond need to be used dure large-area culture, that culture pond needs to be disinfected and sterilized when carp fry are put into the culture pond, and the time for putting the carp fry into the culture pond is selected from the end of October to the beginning of November as far as possible. If you breed at home, you can prepare an ecological fish tank, which should be disinfected before putting carp in.
2. Feeding: Carp is an omnivorous animal and can eat a lot of things. Various animal feeds can be used as staple foods, such as earthworms, snails, shrimps and so on. 1-2 times a day is more appropriate.
3. Water temperature: Carp has good adaptability to water temperature, and can live normally between 6 and 30 degrees. However, considering that the water temperature will affect their appetite and activity, it is better to keep it around 20 degrees, or more than 10 degrees is also possible.
4. Water quality: As for the water used in aquaculture, you can pay a little attention to the PH value, which can be controlled between 6.3 and 8.4. In the process of breeding, water can be changed regularly according to the specific water temperature, generally speaking, it has to be changed once a week or so. When the temperature is relatively high, the interval of water exchange is shorter.
5. Disease control: In the process of breeding, disease control is an important task. It can be disinfected every other time, while paying attention to the observation of water color and the state of carp, and timely prevention and treatment after finding symptoms.
