The snakehead is large, and the largest snakehead can grow to nearly 100 kilograms. But this kind of very large snakehead is relatively small, most of the snakehead is still relatively small, generally only 2-3 kilograms. Especially the farmed snakehead, their weight is generally only about 1 kg, or even less than 1 kg. This is because after a period of breeding, they will flow into the market and can not continue to grow.
How big and how long can a snakehead grow?

1. How big

can snakehead grow? Snakehead is a common freshwater fish, which is widely distributed in China and basically lives in all provinces. In theory, snakehead fish are relatively large, and some snakehead fish can even grow to nearly 100 kilograms. But there are not many snakeheads that can grow to such a large size, and most of them are relatively small.

Especially the snakehead in the state of artificial breeding, although they grow faster, but generally speaking, the common snakehead in the market is only 1 kg, or even less than 1 kg, because the snakehead in the state of artificial breeding will not be bred for too long, at most about 3 years, or even shorter time will flow into the market. Although the growth rate of wild snakehead fish is relatively slow in the short term, their final size is relatively large. However, their size can also be affected by their environment. Specifically, there are many influencing factors, and water temperature and food are two very important factors. When the water temperature is very low or the food is insufficient, the snakehead fish will not get enough nutrition, and their development will be affected, so they will not grow too big.

2. How long can snakehead grow up

? As mentioned above, the growth rate of cultured snakehead is generally faster. It takes a shorter time for them to grow up. After about three years, their length can reach more than 30 centimeters, and they can be sold in the market. The living environment of wild snakehead can not be adjusted artificially, sometimes in an unsuitable state, so their growth rate is slower, and it takes longer to grow up. How long snakehead can grow up is related to many aspects, such as water environment, food and the density of fish in the water, which are very important factors.
