Koi Keeping Tips (above)

In an outdoor koi pond, the number of times bait is given should be adjusted according to the health condition of the fish, the state of the water, and the temperature of the water, of which the water temperature is more important.20-25 degrees Celsius and can be fed in a day5-6times above25degrees Celsius or below18The amount of food to be fed should be reduced, and the water temperature should be reduced if it is lower than11degrees Celsius or above30Degrees Celsius should stop feeding, because the water temperature is too high dissolved oxygen in the water will be reduced, feeding will increase the oxygen demand of the fish; on the contrary, the water temperature is too low, the fish's digestive system is not favorable.

Koi fish must be fed at regular intervals, at regular intervals, with regular quality and quantity. Nowadays, there are feeds on the market specifically for koi fish, which are available in different varieties of breeding, color-enhancing, color-raising and pellet sizes.

The Importance of Carp Bait

Carp bait is also very important, good bait will not break down the size of the carp. The amount of bait you give, depending on the temperature of the water, is the key to fattening up the carp. If you still want to give a lot of bait, increase the amount of circulation. Koi fish can be fattened up at water temperatures above28The weight of the carp shall be equal to the weight of the whole carp.3% bait. Water temperature25kilowatt-hour1.5%, water temperature20kilowatt-hour0.3%.16The key to strong carp growth is to stop baiting below this level. Continuous baiting of carp can cause internal disorders, thus affecting the carp's ability to grow strong and even leading to a distorted body shape.

Keeping koi fish requires care

Feeding is started by observation, so daily management should insist on daily observation patrol of the fish pond or tank. Every day, you should also check the filtration equipment, including observing whether there is any water leakage in the fish pond or tank; whether the water pump is running normally, whether the filter tank is clogged with dirt, which affects the filtration effect, and whether the ultraviolet germicidal lamp is reliable and effective. Adhere to do a good job of regular water disinfection and other work to prevent fish disease.

As long as there is no drastic change, carp can easily adapt to changes in water temperature, water quality and other environments, and it is not impossible to keep them without a large garden, and some people even make pools to keep them on the second-floor balcony or the top-floor balcony. However, we appreciate the majestic atmosphere of koi fish, so it is appropriate to make the pool as wide as possible, and the depth of the water should be as high as possible.1.2 mAbove is ideal. Fish ponds must have bottom water drainage, filtration circulation and other equipment, water does not have to take groundwater, tap water can also be raised.

Must be drained daily

(1) If all the feces or dead algae are sent to the filter tank, the consumption of oxygen will increase and the acid concentration will increase.PHIt will drop, and will be transformed into nitrous acid, which will increase the burden of the filter tank. In order to minimize the burden on the filter tank, the bottom water of the fish pond must be drained at least once a day, so that the excreta can be discharged, and the intermediate water is sent to the settling tank and filter tank, which must also be cleaned frequently.

(2) To concentrate fish feces at the bottom of the pool to drain, the better method is not to blow from the bottom of the pool but from the vent of the40-50Blow air above the centimeter. As the air bubbles rise upwards, the water convects and the dirt must concentrate at the outlet.

The rainy season is water temperature,pHValues are prone to change and it is also a period when carp are susceptible to disease.

Ponds that are worried about being affected by rain, which can cause changes in water quality, should reduce the amount of bait they feed. If you find that the carp are in an abnormal condition, you must stop feeding them for a while and check to see if the carp are sick? Is there a problem with the filter tank? Increase the amount of new water, drain some more bottom water, put in organic matter decomposing enzymes or purifying bacteria, and the outside ponds will be particularly hard work, however, don't let the water quality produce drastic changes.

In addition, green algae can grow in the pool due to inadequate filtration of the pool water, which increases the nitrogen compounds needed for green algae to reproduce. More bait is fed, the carp excrete more and more, the water temperature increases, and poor conditions are created in which the pool water tends to rot.

To avoid the growth of green algae, please note the following points:

(1) Control the amount of bait given as much as possible to minimize the burden on the filter tank, and conversely, work on enhancing the filter tank.
(2) Outdoor pools need to be protected from ultraviolet rays, so it is important to build roofs wherever possible, and netting is also effective.
(3) When algae increase, the amount of new water has to be increased, and the amount of bottom water drained has to be increased, generally by a total of1The number of hours of work can be increased, but depending on the situation, it is sometimes necessary to increase the number of hours of work.2~3ratio to get the nitrite concentration down.)
(4) When using germicidal lamps, the benchmarks are1 tThe amount of water is1~2WIf you want to set the filter tank at the end of the tank, please read the instruction manual first.

(5) Algae removal agents are sold on the market.
