After "Chinese Koi Xin Xiaodai" won the prize a few days ago, many netizens went to her Weibo to repost the koi and feel happy. Want to experience the real Koi? Today the editor, Master Dai, joins the world of koi.
Koi customs: Koi are gentle by nature and like to swim in groups and are easy to raise. They are highly adaptable to water temperature. It can be maintained at a water temperature of 5-30℃.
Selection of koi: When choosing koi, those with beautiful colors, clear patterns and neat edges should be the best. The red color of koi is peach red, and koi with outstanding red color are beautiful and rich. And if you use colored feed to promote the red color, it will look dirty and unnatural. In addition, it is easier to identify koi that are more than 15 centimeters tall. The appearance of koi that is too small will change during the growth process.
The body shape of koi should be such that the back is straight, the body is stable, and the swimming posture is steady and regular. The shape of the cheeks and the position of the mouth should be regular, with both ends fully bulged and not sunken. The fins should be symmetrical, complete, agile in swimming, and strong in body.
Raising koi: Store tap water in a bucket and dry it for 2 days to remove chlorine. The drying process will also reduce the oxygen content in the water. The body temperature of koi will change with the change of water temperature. If the water temperature changes gradually, koi will be affected. If not suitable, the optimal water temperature should be controlled at 23~28℃. Hard water is better for the growth of koi. Well water is hard water, while tap water is soft water. A sudden change from hard water to soft water can also cause discomfort to koi, which is why watering is done.
Also feed the koi 2-3 times a day, and it is best to feed the koi in seven or eight minutes. If it is the growth season, the amount of bait for koi can be reduced by one-half or one-third. For weak and sick koi, the amount of bait can be reduced by two-thirds.
