Fish Breeding Methods For The Crucian Carp

 

Fish farming is carried out at largely in most countries of Asia and Europe. Crucian Carp is one of the freshwater fishes that dwell in the rivers, lakes and reservoirs.  This is a fact sheet provided by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN which explains the methods that are adopted for the production of Crucian Carp.

Environmental and biological facts:

Crucian carp are usually sedentary type fishes that naturally propagate in different types of water bodies like lakes, rivers and reservoirs. They are basically omnivores generally feeding on filamentous algae, organic detritus, seeds and pieces of aquatic weeds and small benthic animals. But the larvae or the fry feed usually on zooplankton.

Artificial feed like pelleted feed, by-products from oil extraction and grain processing are also used in aquaculture. The main stimuli for reproduction are water level, rainfall and the temperature changes. The existence of aquatic weeds aids in spawning. They serve as the substrata for the eggs, which are normally adhesive. The average growth rate of a medium sized Crucian Carp is 1.25 kg.

The earthen pond culture is the mainly used system for rearing the Crucian Carp. But even rice paddies are used in countries like China.

Production cycle

 

Production cycle of Crusian Carp 

Criteria for Pond preparation:

There are certain typical aspects for the preparation of the pond for the reproduction and nursing of Crucian Carp and getting them ready for the end of year carp Sale.

Generally earthen ponds of the size of 1.5-2.0 m deep and 0.07-0.2 ha, are used for farming of the Crucian Carp. Before the Crucian carp is introduced in the ponds, the ponds are treated chemically with quicklime to ensure the elimination of all the harmful organisms that hinder in the process of Carp hatchery. The quicklime that is used usually amounts to 900-1125 kg/ha.

Even the organic fertilizers like the green and the animal manure are used for increasing the biomass of the zooplankton that is the natural food organisms for the carp. These are applied 5-10 days prior to stocking. This also depends on the water temperature. The quantity of the organic manures used may be:

4500 kg/ha for green manure.
3000 kg/ha for animal manure.

However, when both are used, their quantity gets reduced.

Supply of seeds:

The major supply of seed for Crucian carp culture is derived from artificial spawning. There are also natural seeds available in various water bodies that aid in carp culture. Carassius carassius gibelio is the commonly cultured carp. This is produced through the method of gynogenesis with the Xingguo red common carp which is the male and the female Carassius carassius gibelio. All female off-springs provided by the assorted gynogenesis, have a growth rate of 30-40 percent, which is higher than that of the original fish. There are also various other strains and species of Crucian Carp cultured in different parts of China.

Hatching process:

Usually matured and well selected brood stock is released into the spawning ponds, cages or tanks. Providing good substrata of palm leaves, plastic weeds, grass bundles and branches of fine trees, is very important in the water column where the spawning is carried on and the egg attachment takes place. Eggs can also be hatched in earthen ponds after treating them chemically. They require the eggs to be moved and fixed in the water column in the ponds along with the substrata.

Eggs hatch better in running water (jar or raceway). The eggs along with the substrata are merely hanged in the water column. The eggs along with the substrata can also be placed in jars or raceways, for hatching. The adhesiveness in the eggs is removed by blending with the clay solution before stocking. Later, the fry or hatchlings are shifted to the nursery ponds when they become capable to feed actively and swim well.

Sometimes hormonal injections are also given for the synchronous spawning of the fishes. Such hormonal injections are optional only. The fishes spawn well even without using them.

How do bait boats help in catching those great carps?

While I do admire the wonders of nature while keeping an eye on my rods, my main target remains to catch some great carps. Let’s imagine we are now sitting at the edge of a pool, alleged to be populated by numerous carps, pike and other fish. We have our rods, bait and we need to decide where to have our swim.

How would you select your swim? Following your fishing experience, trusting your fellow anglers’ opinion, … ? Most of the time we are talking about hard to reach places, which puts us for another challenge: get our rig and bait over to that presumed ideal fishing spot. So we would like to be able to locate the fish and get our rig and bait to that spot with maximum accuracy and minimum risk. We need a tool to transport both bait and rig to the spot where the large fish have their meal.

 Thanks to modern technology we have the perfect solution via a radio controlled bait boat. If the rc bait boat is fitted with a fish discoverer, you can finally fulfil all the aspirations of a real carp or pike angler: find the ideal fishing spot and get yourself over to that perfect position with rig and bait to catch them fish. These radio controlled bait boats come in different taste and flavours, so when selecting your rc bait boat you need to always keep in mind your goal and your needs.

Is the function for finding fish with your rc bait boat required?
As mentioned in paragraph above, we want to locate the fish, in which case the fish finder function is necessary.
Be aware of the fact that there are bait boats that only deliver the more common purpose of a bait boat, which is to render the lure on your preferred location. As those rc bait boats do not accept the fish finder option, will not be able to add the fish finder function afterwards.

What is your normal quantity of bait?
The bait boats’ capacity is specified in kg or lbs. If the weight of your bait boat is specified to maximum 0.5kg, you could have to arrange multiple trips if your desired bait quantity is much more. Make up your mind about this specification as it also has implications for the price.

What is the maximum distance from your rod to your swim?
This range is expressed in m or ft and generally varies between 200 and 600m. Exceeding the distance might cause you to lose radio control over your rc bait boat. It is up to you to select the bait boat with the appropriate maximum range in line with your fishing style.

Is fishing at any time of the day a requirement?
Navigation lights and led indicating your bait has dropped will come in handy if you prefer fishing at night or in misty circumstances. Bait boats equipped with gps steering capabilities are ideal for this kind of work, but their high cost makes them less attractive.

What is your budget?
We hope that the selection criteria above allow you to evaluate your needs and choose your bait boat within your budget.

Smart fishing requires keen tools and talent. At heliosonline we provide a bait boat campaign to allow for better selection and use  of your rc bait boat.
