Mantis shrimp is an arthropod, and they can be eaten. Wild mantis shrimps are distributed in the sea area, mainly in tropical and subtropical areas. However, mantis shrimp can also be raised artificially, and large-scale farming is also a relatively common behavior. In the process of feeding, we need to do a good job of management according to their habits and characteristics, such as water quality, feeding, disease placement and other aspects.
1. Pond: If you want to breed mantis shrimps in a large area, you need to prepare a pond. Sites are also an important aspect, and they can be cultured in coastal waters.
2. Feeding: To breed mantis shrimps, you need to provide them with enough food so that they can grow faster. Generally speaking, it is OK to feed 1-2 times a day, in the morning and evening. They can eat a lot of food, it is best to choose those foods containing more protein, such as viscera, earthworms and so on.
3. Water temperature: Keeping the water temperature suitable is also helpful for the growth of mantis shrimp. Wild mantis shrimp live in tropical and subtropical waters, where the water temperature is relatively high. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the water temperature when raising artificially, preferably between 20-27 degrees, and try not to be lower than 20 degrees.
4. Oxygen content: The oxygen content in water is also an important controlling factor. Generally speaking, the dissolved oxygen in water should be kept at least 5 ml per liter. In addition, it should be noted that when the water quality is very dirty, the oxygen content in the water will decrease, so it is necessary to change the water in time.
5. Disease prevention: In the process of breeding, it is necessary to do a good job of disease prevention and regular disinfection.
