? Tilapia was originally a kind of fish living in Africa. Later, it was introduced into many countries and regions. At present, it is also distributed in China. Tilapia is not a marine fish in terms of living environment, because they do not live in the ocean. Tilapia is a freshwater fish, generally living in freshwater rivers, distributed in the middle and bottom of the waters. Tilapia requires high water temperature, if the water temperature is too low, it will seriously affect their growth and development, and may even directly lead to their death. Therefore, tilapia mainly lives in low latitudes in Africa and other continents.
Tilapia is also a kind of fish that can be cultured artificially. In our country, the behavior of breeding this kind of fish is very common. They are generally cultured in ponds and freshwater. Because they live in fresh water for a long time, both their body structure and living habits are adapted to fresh water.
in fresh water? As mentioned above, tilapia are not marine fish, nor do they live in sea water. They live in fresh water. Especially for tilapia cultured artificially, freshwater culture is generally used, and intensive culture in ponds is very common. Luofei fish can live in fresh water and have good adaptability to fresh water. Specifically, they generally live in fresh water in low latitudes, that is, in watersheds with relatively high water temperature, inhabit the middle and lower layers of the waters, and mainly feed on some plant debris around them.
