Fish Culturing

 Fish Culturing

Here we discus complete process of fish culturing in a step by step and very easy wording that can be understandable of almost every reader.

             In fish culturing first of all is a step is the formation of a pond.

Formation of a pond:

     In the formation of pond we go through some basic steps. Let Discus these steps briefly.

Texture of the pond soil:

     Soil texture is very important because it is the only thing that decide that either your culturing will be in loss are in profit because water storage capacity of the pond, mineral dissolving power of the water, quantity of phytoplankton and strength of the wall of a pond all these things depends upon the texture of a soil.

                  Now we discus which type of a soil is best for a pond. Pond soil should be a mixture of clay loam and sand. There mixture is very important because if we choose only sand then it will drain out all the liquid and all the nutrients wash out quite easily. In sandy soil nutrient capturing ability is very low and walls of the pond were also very weak. If we choose clay only then it will capture all the nutrients. Nutrient presence is very essential because there presence decide the amount of phytoplankton and amount of phytoplankton decide the amount of zooplankton and fishes eat these planktons.
