1. Excavate shrimp ponds. The pond for Australian crayfish needs to be excavated in a land that is ventilated and sunny, has a quiet environment, has sufficient water sources, has no pollution sources, and has convenient drainage and irrigation. A rectangular area is best, and 3 acres to 5 acres is more suitable.

2. Supporting facilities. Farmers also need to remember to install the inlet and drainage facilities of the Australian crayfish pond, and don’t forget to set up an anti-escape net at the inlet and outlet. It is more appropriate to plant aquatic plants around the pond and cover about one-fifth of the water surface.

3. Stocking shrimp seedlings. The stocking time of shrimp larvae is usually from March to May, and the water temperature reaches above 18℃. The time for releasing seedlings is morning or evening on a sunny day. The size of shrimp seedlings is 50px-100px, and the density is 6000-8000 shrimps/acre. Shrimp seedlings stocked in the same pond must be uniform in size.

4. Feeding food. Three days after placing the shrimp larvae, you can put in minced fish and minced meat; in the next 1 month, you can put in the small fish, offal meat and artificial feed; wait until the shrimp larvae grow to 6-7cm, Replace with crushed snails, mussels and other plant feeds. The amount should be about enough for the shrimp larvae to leave no residual bait.

5. Key points to note in breeding. Australian lobsters have good metabolism and grow quickly, so the water quality of the shrimp pond must be kept clean. It is best to add 15 to 20 centimeters of water a week to ensure that the water quality of the shrimp pond has enough dissolved oxygen. It is best to control the transparency of the water in the shrimp pond to about 35CM. There are many natural enemies of Australian lobster, such as rats, frogs, water birds, etc., which will harm it. Farmers have to pay attention to rat infestations, eliminate rats in time, and remove frogs from the pond. Preventive measures can be taken, such as setting up a 30-40cm fence around the shrimp pond to prevent frogs and water snakes from invading.

6. Catch and list. Generally, starting after the National Day of that year, ground cages are used to catch in batches, or dry ponds or seine nets are used for one-time fishing in the evening.
