? Tilapia is a kind of fish originated in Africa. At present, it is also distributed in China, and many of them are cultured artificially. From the point of view of feeding habits, tilapia belongs to a kind of fish with miscellaneous feeding habits, and there are many things to eat. The two kinds of food that fish often eat are animal food and plant food, and grass is plant food. Tilapia also eat grass. They mainly eat some small plants growing in the water. Algae is one of the important ones. In addition, plant debris in the water will also become the food of tilapia. In fact, the main food of tilapia is plant food, and they prefer to eat plants rather than animal food. In some experiments, it has also been proved that the food in the stomach of tilapia is mainly plant.
Wild tilapia mainly eats some plants in the living environment. In fact, the same is true of cultured tilapia, which is more interested in plant feed. Therefore, breeders can cultivate rich plants in the breeding pond, so that the food of tilapia is more abundant, and their growth and development can be better.
? As mentioned above, tilapia is a kind of fish with miscellaneous feeding habits, but it prefers plant food in a variety of foods. But it does not mean that they do not eat meat at all, after all, they are omnivorous fish, and they are more interested in some meat. Wild tilapia may use small fish and shrimps in their living environment as their own food, and if tilapia are farmed, they can also be given animal feed, such as mealworms, red worms and earthworms. Because animal feed contains more protein, it is beneficial to the growth of tilapia.
