Build a pond to choose a quiet environment, no wind and sunny, convenient drainage and irrigation ponds for aquaculture, if it is a self-propagation, self-breeding, self-farming snapper farms will be the construction of five breeding ponds, respectively, for the construction of new snapper ponds, young snapper ponds, juvenile snapper ponds, 3-year-old snapper ponds, adult snapper ponds.

The soil of the pond is preferably clay or loam, and if there is no sandy soil at the bottom of the pond, it should be mixed with a part of sandy soil, and it is necessary to build a sunbed and a bait feeder on the side of the breeding pond to provide a place for the snappers to sun their backs and take food, and to build an escape wall with asbestos tiles and bricks with a height of 1m around the breeding pond.

2, turtle fry selection and stocking

Selection of fry: to order in the regular farms or local aquatic market to buy, but also can be ordered on the Internet, but be careful not to buy in the hands of vendors, because traders in the hands of the snapper fry size inconsistency, the source of the channel is also unclear, the purchase of snappers are prone to disease caused by the death of the snappers.

Stocking: no matter where to buy back the snapper fry can not be immediately put into the breeding pool, to be the first through the net box temporary breeding for about 15 days, to observe the snapper's condition, you can first put a part of the snapper such as the breeding pool in the net box in the breeding for about 15 days, if the snapper does not appear any discomfort or abnormalities can be carried out on the large-scale stocking, stocking density according to the size of the pool and other factors The density of stocking depends on the size of the culture pond and other factors, and each mu can put 100kg-150kg of young snappers of 2-3 years old.

3. Temperature control

The optimal temperature for snappers to grow is between 30℃-32℃, and the intake of snappers and the temperature are directly proportional to the temperature, but the temperature should not be more than 32℃, and the temperature should be kept stable as much as possible.

4, the choice of feed

Animal feed: turtle feed can be used in the hotel discarded offal of livestock and poultry, cooking leftover trimmings, but also can be used in the paddy field or river ditch caught snails, small fish, shrimp, loach, and earthworms, insects and so on in the field of this category can become the feed of the turtle.

Plant feed: In the turtle feed can also add a small amount of plant bait, such as cornmeal, soybean dregs, fruits and bran, etc., processed and stirred evenly after feeding.

5, feed feeding

In the use of fresh feed, must be disinfected, cleaned and processed, to eat now, to avoid feed spoilage, in the feed, to distance from the surface of the water 2cm-3cm place to feed, so that is due to the timidity of the snappers, feeding to minimize the interference with them, put the feed should be controlled in an hour and a half and so eaten up in the high temperature season, the feed should be in the daytime, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed, the feed. In the high temperature season, the feed should be fed before sunrise and sunset.

6, water quality management

The turtle has strict requirements for water quality, because most of the turtle lives in the water, the water quality is very important to the growth of the turtle, so we should change the water every 8-10 days, every time we change the water level in the breeding pool should be excluded from the water level of 20cm-25cm, and then fill up the water, the transparency of the water in the breeding pool should be controlled at 30cm-35cm.

Adult snapper pools should be changed every 4 days, and a small amount of water lily, water hyacinth and other green plants can be planted in the water to improve the water quality and allow the snapper to grow better.

7, precautions

The daily patrol in the morning and evening, check the escape wall and the enemy, and at the same time to understand the snapper's feeding and water quality conditions.

The pool for bait feeding should be cleaned with a disinfectant solution with little irritation or with a decontaminated brush before each feeding, and disinfected every three days.
