Water quality management: Regularly test the water quality and keep the water transparency between 30-40 cm and the pH value at 70-8.between 5. According to the change of water quality, take measures such as water change and oxygen increase in time.
Water temperature adjustment: The water temperature suitable for lobster growth is 20-30, too high or too low temperature will affect its growth rate. Therefore, it is necessary to take shading and cooling measures in the high temperature season, and pay attention to heat preservation in the low temperature season.
Pond patrol observation: Patrol the pond at least once a day to observe the growth status, feeding situation and water quality changes of lobsters, etc., and find problems in time and take measures to solve them.
5. Pest control.
Precautionary measures: Keep the pond clean and disinfect it regularly;Strengthen feeding management and improve lobster immunity;When new shrimp fry are introduced, quarantine is carried out to prevent the introduction of pathogens.
