Zebrafish, as an easy-to-raise ornamental fish, is very suitable for family rearing. Here, from the perspective of zebrafish breeding equipment, water temperature, feeding, etc., let's take a look at how zebrafish is raised.
1, stationery
For zebrafish cultured at home, it is usually cultured in an aquarium, and then some pebbles are placed at the bottom of the aquarium to make the water quality clearer. Usually, the size of an aquarium is 30 meters. Of course, the actual size of the fish tank depends on the size of zebrafish and the number of zebrafish cultured.
2. Aquaculture water temperature
How to raise zebrafish at home, but also pay attention to the water temperature of zebrafish. Because zebrafish has low requirements on water quality, it can survive at the water temperature of1~15℃ as long as the water temperature is kept above 18℃. Changing water every day forms a certain rule, and changing water once a week.
Step 3: Feed.
The eating habits of zebrafish are quite simple. Whether it is natural bait or artificial compound feed, it can meet its growth needs, and zebrafish will eat it. So zebrafish is a very good ornamental fish. Many fish lovers have zebrafish at home.
How do zebrafish breed?
In the process of zebrafish breeding, it is inevitable to encounter the problem of zebrafish breeding. If you are not a professional breeder, you basically don't know how to breed zebrafish. Therefore, the following is a detailed introduction to the breeding content of zebra fish.
1, the number of zebrafish
When zebrafish breed, they can be put into the breeding pool according to the ratio of male and female fish 1:2. Generally, from dawn to the next morning 10, the parent fish is fished out. For unfertilized eggs, they will directly fall into the bottom of the tank, and the unfertilized eggs can be sucked out with a straw around 10 in the afternoon.
2. Aquaculture water temperature
When the breeding temperature of zebrafish is 24℃, fertilized eggs hatch into larvae within 2 ~ 3 days. When the water temperature is 28℃, the fertilized eggs hatch into larvae after 36 hours; When the water temperature is 25℃, the larvae of 7 ~ 8 days old begin to eat, then feed them with egg yolk gray water, and then feed them later.
3, aquaculture water requirements
The water for zebrafish culture requires PH6.5-7.5, hardness 6-8 and water temperature 25-26 degrees Celsius. When choosing water for zebrafish culture, we must choose according to this standard.
Life span of zebrafish
The life span of zebrafish culture is mainly affected by culture factors. Generally, the life span of zebrafish is about 2-3 years, which refers to normal reproduction, excluding the life span of infection and abnormal death during reproduction. Of course, if the disease is difficult to find in the process of reproduction, it will generally die directly and cannot be treated. Therefore, in order to live a long life, we should try our best to avoid the occurrence of diseases in the breeding process of zebrafish.
In addition to diseases, zebrafish died unexpectedly, such as being swallowed by other fish, death caused by violent fluctuation of water temperature, etc. It may all lead to the slow life of zebrafish, so the life of zebrafish is uncertain, which is mainly related to the farming method. Although the life span of zebrafish is 2-3 years, few people can really keep it for 2-3 years. If you want your zebra fish to live longer, you should pay attention to the following three points:
1. First, raise the water before entering the fish to prevent zebrafish from dying because they don't adapt to the environment;
Secondly, keep the water temperature and quality. The temperature of zebrafish culture should be kept at 25-26℃ to keep the water quality clear and transparent.
3. Feeding is the main reason that affects the life span of zebrafish, and breeders must pay attention to it. The safe food is feed, and the feed is kept in a dry and cool place.
