The second bait
Personally, I think that Lohan's diseases are mostly related to feeding and water quality, and fish diseases are mostly related to flagellates. The quality of feeding will affect the growth and disease probability of Lohan. Anyone who has raised flower food knows that flower food is easy to breed, so when feeding fish food, he will pay great attention to the hygiene of bait. Lohan should also pay attention to the hygiene of fish food to prevent diseases. (If you think 07 is too exaggerated, stick to your own feeding method.) Lohan eats a lot of food.
Lohan's main food has two kinds:
(1) artificial bait
1. Dry food (pellet feed, dried shrimps, dried blood worms, etc.). For this dried fish food, some arhats will not refuse to come, while others would rather die than surrender. Fish and fish have different habits, so some arhats still refuse to eat feed and shrimp after you are hungry for a few days. Lohan who feels good about himself will be fed soon. Even those animals that refuse to eat occasionally eat.
Before you decide whether to buy feed or shrimp, you should go home and try Lohan's appetite in a familiar fish shop. If you refuse to eat, you can starve it for three or five days before feeding it. When you buy dried fish food, you should pay attention to the quality and production date of the product. Choose low-temperature feed with high protein content. Feeding fish with low-temperature food is not easy to get angry, and the nutrition is well preserved. Change the feed regularly to balance the intake of nutrients. It is suggested that fish friends feed their fish with brand-name feed.
Fish friends are not recommended to buy feed with fast coloring effect. Too fast coloring effect will definitely do great harm to the liver of fish. You just want to see the brightest effect of fish, that's another matter. ) I heard that the effect of protecting and increasing red in Taiwan Province Province is good.
Lohan feed is generally divided into drum head and color enhancement.
The main components of the feed are starch, yeast, hormones and shrimp lycopene. Drum feed will contain higher protein and cholesterol. The function of colored feed is to make arhat with red pigment gene redder. If your fish doesn't contain the red pigment gene, the feed is useless to it.
The advice for beginners is to feed fish with colored feed and choose feed containing natural astaxanthin instead of artificial chemical astaxanthin.
Objectively speaking, if you feed a lot of pellet feed for a long time when you are a small fish, it will do some harm to the fish.
For example: development, premature formation, poor reproductive ability after adult fish, poor state after stopping eating, etc. Some fish friends will ask, "In this case, why feed it?" "The answer is that feed has its own advantages. First, it is clean and hygienic, and easy to store. The hormones contained in it are beneficial to Luohan's disease resistance and reduce the chance of illness. Just like a patient who has undergone major surgery, the doctor will give him an injection of hormones to improve the body's disease resistance and promote wound healing. Secondly, the minerals and vitamins contained in the feed are also useful for the disease prevention and growth of Lohan. Finally, improve the body color and make the fish healthy.
Views on feeding: We should grasp the time and quantity of feeding. I remember the equation of fish friends once said, "Don't rush to attack color, coloring is a manifestation of fish maturity, and once it starts, its growth will slow down." That's right. As for when to start feeding.
I think for the better growth of Lohan, we should start feeding fish when they are more than eight months old, and feed them in small amounts every day. Don't take feed as the staple food until the fish becomes fish. Dry food such as shrimp can be fed at any time as long as the fish can eat it. When feeding shrimp, it's best to eat one and then feed another, not too much at a time, just seven minutes full. In case fish are easy to digest, such as proctoptosis and dried blood worm.
2. hamburgers. There are finished hamburgers for sale. I think it will take a long time from making them to buying them home to feed the fish, and the food is no longer nutritious.
There is also a homemade hamburger, which is troublesome and time-consuming, so I haven't made it. I'm lazy, but I think it should be nutritious and hygienic for fish. But it is easy to get muddy water. Written by the post of colored feed. Bdx is good.
(2) Natural feeding
1. shrimp. Mainly river shrimp and sea shrimp. Personally, I suggest that Lohan should not take shrimp as the staple food, and it is better to use dried shrimp instead of frozen shrimp. Although shrimp has a good coloring effect, it is a kind of indigestible food. After feeding shrimp across the river, fish usually excrete undigested white feces, especially the shrimp head is rich in bacterial parasites.
Where does astaxanthin generally exist, and some fish friends want to know? All right, I'll tell you something. It mostly exists in the membrane between the head of shrimp, the inside of shrimp skin and the meat.
Some people say that "feeding shrimps is hygienic". Even shrimp contain parasitic bacteria. Common parasites such as spores and flagellates are hidden in shrimp. Even after 48 hours of disinfection and freezing, these bacteria can not be completely killed. Shrimp guns can also stimulate the intestines of fish.
If you insist on feeding shrimp, 07 suggests not feeding sea shrimp, but feeding river shrimp. First, the skin of sea shrimp is thick and difficult to digest, but long-term intake of salt will also damage the liver of fish. If you insist on feeding, it is best to remove the head, tail and skin and cut them into small pieces. When feeding river shrimp, the head and tail should also be removed, and the fish with shrimp skin is difficult to digest. If you are too lazy to peel shrimp, then fish will eat more. Red-headed shrimp is also good, and the lycopene content is higher than that of the big-eyed thief. Don't choose farmed river shrimp to feed fish, because the content of astaxanthin in farmed river shrimp is quite low. Some fish friends may insist that "you are wrong, I have been feeding shrimp", so I can only say "friend, you are right, you can continue to feed it." Shrimp should be disinfected before feeding and then frozen for 48 hours before use. Remember, if you use it,
Personally, I think different kinds of arhats have different digestive abilities. Golden flowers, like red horses, are stronger in digestion and disease prevention and resistance than pearls. Red horse has been feeding shrimp for half a year before, but has never been sick. Later, it was changed to pearls, and it was often fed with frozen shrimp. When the fish grew to about six months, it was found that the fish was more prominent.
2. Insects (Tenebrio molitor, wheat worms, crickets, cockroaches, etc. ): Some novices don't know what Tenebrio molitor is? Take a picture.
Tenebrio molitor, commonly known as breadworm in northern China, is an insect native to Beibin. Insects contain high adult fat, accounting for about 60% and 28.2%. It also contains amino acids, phosphorus, iron, potassium, calcium, sodium and other macro elements and trace elements. Pet shops (and bird stalls) sell them, mostly for feeding turtles and birds.
Feeding of breadworms: it can be placed in glass containers (typos) or hard plastic products. When choosing containers, don't ignore the ability of breadworms to pierce holes: lol.
The insect is not strict about temperature and food: indoor temperature can grow well, and the higher the temperature, the faster the growth rate. Food can be wheat bran, steamed bread slices, leftover fruits, various vegetable leaves, etc. Personally, I suggest feeding carrot slices and cabbage leaves. In the past, some fish friends chose to feed breadworms, carrots and Chinese cabbage with red feed, which was beneficial for worms to absorb β -carotene (breadworms would turn red when fed with carrots or red feed) and vitamin A.
Worms absorb nutrients. But personally, Lohan may not absorb the nutrients such as β -carotene and vitamin C in bread worms after feeding fish. Be careful not to put large pieces of food on it when feeding. It is better to cut the food into small pieces for feeding.
Although worms have a high protein content, which is beneficial to the growth of fish, if they are fed for a long time (breadworms usually feed on fruits or vegetables), the fish will start to look black and dim.
Because it contains parasites and bacteria, it should be fed with sterilized and frozen breadworms. If it is fed with live worms, it should be white and easy to digest. If you want to feed the larvae, you can consider raising breadworms artificially, provided that you have enough patience and keep the worms at home. The smell in the room is very bad.
Okay, the bread bug said it. Let's talk about barley worms:
Barley worm, also known as super wheat skin worm or super bread worm, is a kind of Carabidae larva introduced from Southeast Asian countries in recent years. Some people also say that wheat worms are bread worms that eat juvenile hormones, and they have never pupated before they grow so big. No matter what its origin is, I have never fed Lohan. There are two reasons: first, the price is more expensive than breadworms. Secondly, I feel that feeding it to fish will be more difficult to digest than breadworms. Who made it so big?
You can tell the appearance of wheat worms.
Note: The largest is the wheat worm, with black powder insect in the middle and Tenebrio molitor, that is, the bread worm, in the back. Quote bdx
Feeding methods should be similar to breadworms. That's all I know about wheat worms.
Next, let's talk about crickets and cockroaches. Everyone knows what they are, so they are not on the picture.
As for parasites, I won't say much. The coloring effect of crickets is good. In fact, all insects that turn red after death contain red pigment, and the redder they are, the higher their content is. It is recommended to feed dry crickets in barrels. Personally, I don't recommend feeding fish with cockroaches, because cockroaches are rich in parasites and germs, which is related to their living environment. Because there are more parasites and bacteria in their bodies after disinfection and freezing.
4. Red worm: This kind of bait is highly recommended. Red worm is also called blood worm, commonly known as "oil collapse". This is chironomid larva. It is about 0.5 ~ 2.5 cm long, segmented and blood red. Can swim in the water. Living in pond mud, but the water is required to be flowing and clean. Red worm is a good bait for ornamental fish, which contains high protein. There are two kinds of common blood worms: one is produced in Tianjin and cultured, which is big and expensive. Body length is about 1.5 ~ ~ 2.5 cm, pink and transparent in the sun. Also, the blood worms produced in Beijing are slightly smaller than those produced in Tianjin. The price is also lower than that of Tianjin.
The other is mostly produced in various places, with small volume and deep red color. Of course the price is also low. (Little blood worm is also called Jiang, and the picture below is made in Shenyang)
For the blood worm. It is not recommended to feed blood worms with barreled dry feed and fresh feed. It is best to buy fresh blood worms to go home, disinfect them and freeze them. The method of freezing blood worms made by submerged fishermen is very good.
The redder the blood worm, the higher the hemoglobin content in its body. The big one is cleaner than the small one, but the small one is more nutritious and easy to digest and absorb.
Nematode: also known as silk earthworm, it grows in the silt of rivers and lakes, and has a layer of red worms like lines, but it is not as red as blood worms and longer than blood worms. Usually, the upper part exposed from the mud shakes in the water. When the water moves, retract it and come out when it is quiet.
Personally, I think it is best not to feed this bait to Lohan because of the living environment.
Small fish: common ones are diced Sichuan, small crucian carp, and some use red arrows and peacocks. The advantage of feeding small fish is that it contains phosphorus, which helps the beads to be brighter. It also helps the fish to grow faster, especially in the later stage of middle fish.
Some fish friends think that feeding red arrows often can brighten arhats. I personally haven't tried it. Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that larger feed fish are difficult to digest. It is said that long-term feeding will darken arhat's body. There are parasites in the body and so on ~
Some suggestions: don't feed the loach. Some fish friends said it would be better to feed it to the black fish. When feeding small fish, it is best to cut off its head and stomach to reduce the occurrence of infectious diseases. Another point is to choose small fish instead of big fish. If it is too big, Lohan will not be easy to digest.
There are fish seeds: some people say that fish seeds can be fed to Lohan, but I have never tried it.
Animal internal organs: common ones are beef heart, pig liver, chicken heart and chicken liver. Cattle heart and pig liver have not been fed directly, so I don't know how to compare them. The newly bought chicken liver is softer than the chicken heart. Some fish friends say that the chicken liver contains iron, so the color is faster. However, I personally think that there should be more bacteria and parasites in the liver. The disadvantage of feeding chicken heart and liver is that it is easy to get muddy water. Some fish friends will put the newly bought chicken heart and liver.
Personally, it is not recommended to feed chicken heart and chicken liver. If you must feed the chicken heart and liver, cut it into small pieces with scissors and feed the other piece after the fish is finished. When feeding chicken hearts and livers, it is best to remove the yellow grease or impurities from them. Pay attention to maintaining water quality.
Other bait: 1, fed when young, with good coloring effect. I heard that Malays fed it when it was young, but they had to wash it clean. Do you know that fish will be alkalosis? Shrimp eggs fed to young. 2, Daphnia (usually used to feed young) and so on ~
Suggestions on natural bait: Personally, I suggest that fresh bait should be sterilized and frozen for more than 24 hours, preferably 48 hours, and then fed. The melted bait should be fed as soon as possible to avoid bacterial growth. Frozen natural bait should not be kept for too long. It's best to feed it within a week. The remaining bait in the fish tank should be cleaned up to avoid the deterioration of water quality.
In fact, even if you disinfect it, freezing will not completely kill parasites and bacteria. The purpose of this is only to reduce or reduce the probability of fish getting sick.
