How big can arowana be raised?
How long the arowana can grow determines how big the arowana player needs to prepare. Generally speaking, the length of arowana should be at least one or two times the length of arowana. The body length of arowana varies from species to species, generally reaching 70 cm to 100 cm. Therefore, the dragon tank for raising arowana should be wide enough and safe enough. The width and height of the dragon tank should not be less than 60 cm, and the length should be above 150 cm, so that the arowana can have enough space to move and change direction in the dragon tank.
How big can arowana grow? I believe many arowana players are full of curiosity. It is reported that the maturity of arowana is the process of its growth, but arowana can continue to grow slowly after its body matures. Arowana has a life span of several decades, so its body length can grow to an amazing size.
The body length of arowana varies from species to species. How big can arowana, arowana and arowana grow? The normal size of wild arowana is more than one meter, the arowana raised in aquarium can grow to 80 cm, and the longest arowana can grow to nearly one meter. As an artificially trained fish, the most common body length of arowana is 50 cm to 60 cm, and the adult arowana will grow to about 100 cm. In addition, there will be two to three meters of arowana in the farm.
1. How to adjust the water quality of the new aquarium?
Tap water in any city will contain some chlorine (used for disinfection of drinking water) when it just comes out of the tap water pipeline. These chlorine elements ensure the health and safety of our drinking water, but for arowana, chlorine is harmful. So before raising arowana, we need to adjust the tap water to be suitable for fish farming. The method is simple: put enough tap water in the new water tank, first open the filter and circulate for about 3 days. Then turn on the heating device, adjust the temperature to 27-28 degrees Celsius (this temperature is usually the favorite water temperature of arowana, please keep it), and recycle it for 2-3 days, then you can put your favorite arowana into the tank.
2. Choose a large aquarium.
Because arowana is a large fish (the adult fish size can reach 50-60CM), we need to prepare a 1.2 m- 1.5 m fish tank with a width of 50-60CM to feed your favorite fish.
3. How to feed arowana well
Arowana is a long-lived fish. If raised well, I can accompany you for 30-50 years. But how to feed it to make the baby arowana live healthier? In fact, it is very simple, that is, arowana within 20 cm-30cm is routinely fed with a reasonable feeding amount, 1-2 times a day, 70-80% arowana each time,/kloc-0 times a day, 7-8% arowana each time, and 70% arowana the next day.
4. How to choose the food of Arowana?
In everyone's previous concept, arowana should belong to carnivores in the wild, but according to scientific anatomy, arowana actually belongs to omnivores! So when we feed arowana daily, we can try to prepare various recipes for our favorite fish. Can prepare small fish, shrimp, loach and so on. For them (remove the tip of the shrimp head before feeding, otherwise it will easily hurt the stomach of arowana). Before feeding small fish loach to arowana, it is best to freeze it in advance according to the amount of fish in each meal, and then feed it after thawing if necessary (because small living animals are easy to carry parasites and bacteria; Freezing can play a very good role in preventing bacteria). If conditions permit, you can also buy some insects such as crickets and breadworms for your pet fish every 1-2 months (the insect food itself is vegetarian, which can supplement some essential vitamins for arowana).
5. How does arowana change water?
As we all know, any animal needs metabolism to survive. Arowana lives in water all its life, so its metabolism is in water. Therefore, we must change the fresh water for Ailong regularly to keep their best living environment. Usually, we can change the intercepted tap water into the aquarium where arowana lives according to the amount of one week 1/4 times (intercepting water is the process of drying tap water in a bucket for more than 12 hours to volatilize chlorine in the water). If possible, it is best to change the water twice a week, with the ratio of 1/5 each time.
