Feeding

FEEDING
  • Daily supplementary feeding of the fry can be done immediately after stocking (100 fry/m2) and the feeding rate is usually 1-2 kg of rice/wheat bran per 100 m2. However, before being used, the bran must be sieved through a 0.5 mm mesh. In some cases not all the feed will be consumed completely by the hatchlings, and the remaining feed will serve as a fertilizer input and will help to maintain the plankton bloom within the pond. Commercially available starter feeds can also be used.
