Grass carp can reproduce by itself, but it needs to meet certain conditions. The first is age, when the grass carp is sexually mature, it can start to reproduce itself. The other is the surrounding environment. Among the environmental factors, water temperature is very important, and it should be stable at about 18 degrees. Another important condition is running water, in which grass carp can not reproduce by itself. As a result, many of the cultured grass carp can not reproduce themselves. When they are raised, they can be artificially bred.
Can grass carp reproduce by itself? When will it reproduce?

1. Can grass carp reproduce

by itself? Grass carp is a kind of fish living in our country. It belongs to freshwater fish and is very common. Grass carp is also a kind of fish with strong reproductive capacity. Wild grass carp can reproduce by themselves, but they need to meet certain conditions to reproduce by themselves. Age condition is the first condition, after sexual maturity of grass carp can reproduce, otherwise the environment is suitable for them can not reproduce. Then there is the surrounding water temperature, when the water temperature is in a suitable state, they can reproduce, so only a few months of the year when the climate is relatively warm is their breeding season. In addition, there is an important condition is running water, if the grass carp has been in static, no flowing water, they can not reproduce, can naturally reproduce grass carp in the river junction, meander and so on. The condition of

running water is very important, and if it is not met, the grass carp will not be able to reproduce by itself. Therefore, most of the grass carp cultured artificially can not reproduce, because the requirement of running water can not be met in the aquaculture pond. In this case, breeders usually choose to help them carry out artificial breeding, at which time the success rate of breeding is relatively high.

2. When to breed

grass carp has been introduced above. Grass carp can breed by itself, but it needs to breed in a suitable water temperature. That is to say, when the climate is relatively warm, the water temperature is suitable for grass carp breeding, and grass carp will breed and spawn. Generally speaking, when the water temperature is stable at about 18 degrees, the grass carp can reproduce smoothly. Specifically, it starts in April every year and lasts until around July. The peak period of grass carp breeding is around May, when the water temperature is very suitable, and the efficiency of grass carp breeding is relatively high.
