1. The water source is clean

When loach breeding, although the water source is not very demanding, but the water source can not be polluted. So the water quality should be clean, and the pond should be close to the water source, so that it is convenient to add water at a later stage. The depth of the pond does not need to be too much, about 40 to 50 centimeters will do.

2. Oxygenation equipment

Misgurnus anguillicaudatus is a small fish that can tolerate hypoxia, but under high-density feeding conditions, high dissolved oxygen is necessary. The high density of loach requires high dissolved oxygen in the water, otherwise it can not meet its normal growth and basic metabolism, which will easily lead to the poor vitality of loach, reduced intake, slow growth, and increased disease. Therefore, it is necessary to install oxygenating equipment in high density rearing ponds.

3 to have silt.

The pond where the loach grows should have some silt. Loaches like to live and play in the silt. It is best to choose a sunny place to build a pond so that the seaweed and algae in the water can grow well and provide some plant feed for the loach, which is good for growth.

4. Healthy loach seedlings

The loach seedlings must be healthy, so that the later breeding is more worrying. Loach seedlings can be tried with edible salt and water. Add the right amount of edible salt to the water and put the loach in. If it jumps around a lot, such loach is not suitable for purchase. If it can perform normal activities, it can be selected.

5. Bird-proof net

Mudskippers are natural enemies of birds. They like to prey on loaches. If effective measures are not taken, the loach in the breeding pond will become their delicious food. Birds can't pass by, and people can't guard the pool 24 hours a day to drive them away, so you can cover the pool with a net so that the birds can't catch the loaches.

6. Escape precautions

Mudskippers like to make holes. If it is cultured in a mud pond, the perimeter of the pond should be built up with cement. If it is cultured in a cement pond, this process is not needed. Also, no matter what kind of breeding pond, the inlet and outlet should be blocked with fine mesh to prevent loaches from escaping.

7. Preventive Measures

The loach has a strong vitality, but its diseases must be prevented. Otherwise, once sick, the disease will spread rapidly through the water body and cause economic losses. There are two ways to prevent loach diseases:Sterilize the pool water regularly or put drugs in the bait.
