The price of an adult blue magic shrimp is about 100 yuan, and some blue magic shrimps with better color will reach about 200 yuan. Because of the high cost of blue magic shrimp breeding, the price of local artificially cultured blue magic shrimp is generally stable at around 100 yuan. If it is imported blue magic shrimp, the price will be higher. The blue magic shrimp fry are cheaper, usually only ten yuan each.
Expansion: Is the blue magic shrimp easy to raise?
Blue magic shrimp is very difficult to raise.
First of all, the blue magic shrimp has a bad temper and is very unsuitable for social rearing. The blue magic shrimp raised in groups often have fights, and once they fight, they will never die. Therefore, attention should be paid to separate and isolated farming when cultivating blue magic shrimp.
Secondly, Blue Devil Shrimp has very high requirements on water quality. The water for raising Blue Devil Shrimp cannot be neutral or acidic, and the best is alkaline water.
Then the blue magic shrimp is also very demanding on temperature. The most suitable temperature for breeding blue magic shrimp is about 25 degrees. If the water temperature is too low, the blue magic shrimp will easily stop growing.
Finally, Blue Devil Shrimp has high requirements on food. When cultivating Blue Devil Shrimp, it is best to feed it some prawns or loaches, and at the same time feed some fruits and vegetables to ensure the nutritional balance of Blue Devil Shrimp.
Expansion: How to raise blue magic shrimp?
The growth cycle of blue magic shrimp can reach sexual maturity in about 6 months, and its life span is 10- 15 years. Generally, the body length can reach 10- 15 cm in artificial breeding, but it is easy to reach 20 if the five key points of water temperature, water quality, oxygen supply, feeding and water tank are well done.
1, water temperature
The feeding water temperature is 20℃-30℃, the optimal water temperature is 24℃-26℃, and the breeding water temperature is 26℃-28℃. The low water temperature affects the growth of shrimp, and the high water temperature is easy to lead to the failure and death of shrimp when molting. The optimal water temperature is based on the conclusion that shrimp farmers keep trying, and the optimal water temperature is helpful to the molting and growth of shrimp.
2. Water quality
Shrimp can survive normally in the environment with pH value of 6.5 ~ 9, but it is best to cultivate in alkaline water, because acidic water quality is not conducive to the growth of shrimp molting. Too acidic water is not conducive to molting, but also promotes the formation of soft shells, which is harmful to the normal life of shrimp, so the pH value should be controlled between 7.2 and 8. The hardness of water should be controlled between 17-25. Too low hardness will easily make shrimp shells soft, while too high hardness will easily lead to too hard shrimp shells and lead to molting failure.
3. Oxygen supply
In addition to the water temperature and quality, it is necessary to turn on the oxygen pump for 24 hours to ensure adequate oxygen supply. Hypoxia is one of the main causes of shrimp death and molting failure. Crawfish don't need a high water surface. If the water surface is too high, the pressure will be high, which will easily lead to the failure of shrimp shell removal.
If more than one crayfish are raised in a tank, it is necessary to pay attention to adding evasive objects in the tank, and the crayfish have a strong sense of territory. Especially before molting, attention should be paid to isolating the crayfish that are about to molt to avoid being attacked and killed during molting.
In order to keep a good water environment in the cylinder, there should be a filter in the cylinder, which should be opened for a long time. Most of the filter and oxygen pump are integrated. It is also necessary to change the water in the cylinder regularly, with a cycle of 1 week 1 time. It should be noted that the old water in the cylinder cannot be pumped out too much, 1/3 or so, and 2/3 is reserved.
Step 4: Feed
What the Blue Devil Shrimp eats is also a key point to pay attention to. Red worms and loach are cheap and affordable carnivorous feeds, while river shrimps and dried shrimps are high in protein and calcium, but their prices are relatively expensive. Shrimp is fed with red worms when it is young, and mixed with red worms and loach when it grows up. It is not recommended to pollute the water quality in bumper years.
5. Water tank
Don't feel wasted, use a big tank to raise, one tank can only raise one blue magic shrimp, and the two will definitely fight, and the space is large, which is very beneficial to the growth of blue magic shrimp. And the water tank must have a cover to prevent the blue magic shrimp from jumping out of the tank.
That's all for today's sharing. I hope I can help you.
