Loach is a small fish that lives in water and is widely farmed due to its adaptability, fast growth, and rich nutrients. When raising loaches at home, you need to pay attention to the following:
1. Breeding containers.
First of all, you need to choose a suitable breeding container, you can use water tanks, buckets, pools, etc. The size of the container should be moderate, generally according to the number of cultured to ensure that the loach has enough space to grow. At the same time, the bottom of the container should be covered with fine sand or soil to provide an environment for loaches to roost.
2. Water quality management.
Loaches have high requirements for water quality, and need to maintain the freshness of the water and the appropriate pH. Therefore, it is necessary to change the water regularly, generally once a day, to maintain the stability of the water quality. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the control of water temperature, keep the water temperature within a suitable range, and avoid the impact of too high or too low on the growth of loaches.
3. Feed feeding.
Loaches are omnivorous fish and need to be fed in abundance**. You can choose some high-quality feed for feeding, such as fishmeal, soybean meal, rice bran, etc. At the same time, you can also feed some natural bait, such as plankton, insect larvae, etc. The amount and frequency of feeding should be adjusted according to the growth and needs of the loaches.
Fourth, disease prevention and control.
Loaches are prone to diseases during their growth, and it is necessary to pay attention to the prevention and treatment of diseases. Some medications can be used regularly for prophylaxis and **, such as oxytetracycline, penicillin, etc. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to maintaining the hygiene and cleanliness of the breeding environment to reduce the occurrence of diseases.
5. Daily management.
When raising loaches at home, you need to pay attention to daily management. It is necessary to regularly check the condition of the breeding container, find and solve the problem in time. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the growth and behavior changes of loaches, and adjust the breeding environment and management measures in time.
In short, raising loaches at home needs to pay attention to water quality management, feed feeding, disease prevention and daily management. Only by doing a good job in these tasks can we ensure the healthy growth of loaches and improve the efficiency of breeding.
