Red pompano is called trash fish because of poor food.

Red pomfret is not expensive, the purchase price is low, the ideal state is mixed with other fish to improve the overall income, but the red pomfret is too fierce, will take other fish as food, even the size of a lot bigger than it has not been spared, so the mixed farming simply does not work.

And previously many farms have the practice of building toilets on fish ponds, excrement directly to the red pomfret fish as food, and slowly this mode is very common. Many consumers know, do not dare to buy, since then the reputation of the red pomfret fish fell, and it will be included in the ranks of the "garbage fish", and the Egyptian jack, tilapia, so that the red pomfret fish is being raised waste.

Habitat:

Red pomfret is not only an omnivorous fish, it is also ferocious comparable to piranhas, this feature is a double-edged sword, because this kind of food is very good to feed what to eat, hungry and piranhas are no different, anything that can be gnawed on can be food, but this is also easy to destroy the fish ponds of the oxygenator, cables and other facilities.
