BERAPA TAKARAN PEMBERIAN PAKAN UNTUK BIBIT LELE

Summary

This tutorial provides a comprehensive guide on how to properly feed catfish (lele) seedlings for optimal growth. It covers important aspects such as choosing the right feed size based on the fish's mouth, feeding frequency (three times a day), and the ideal feed quantity to avoid waste or underfeeding. The video also emphasizes the benefits of soaking feed in water and using probiotics for improved digestion and immunity. By observing the fish's response to food, the guide helps aquaculture enthusiasts provide the best care for their fish, ensuring healthy and sustainable growth.

Takeaways

• 😀 Always provide fish feed with pellet sizes that match the size of the fish's mouth. Using pellets too large or small can lead to improper feeding.
• 😀 Feed your catfish three times a day at different times to ensure they get enough food without overfeeding them.
• 😀 Feeding times should avoid early mornings when the weather is still cold, as fish tend to have less appetite. Opt for around 9 AM instead.
• 😀 In the afternoon, feed your fish around 3 PM or 4 PM after the Asr prayer, and again in the evening around 8 PM to 9 PM when catfish are more active.
• 😀 The amount of feed should be adjusted based on the fish’s behavior. If they are still hungry, continue feeding until they show a response, but avoid excess waste.
• 😀 It’s recommended to moisten fish feed with water before feeding, which can help in digestion and absorption.
• 😀 Every 3 days, alternate the water used to moisten the feed with a probiotic solution to enhance digestion, immunity, and overall health of the catfish.
• 😀 Probiotics, similar to human products like Yakult, provide benefits such as improving digestion, increasing appetite, and boosting immunity in catfish.
• 😀 Feed the fish with an appropriate amount to prevent both underfeeding and overfeeding. Overfeeding can lead to waste and pollution in the pond.
• 😀 Don’t worry if there’s leftover feed. If not consumed immediately, it can be fed during the next scheduled meal, but avoid storing it for long periods.
• 😀 Always monitor the response of the catfish to the feed. If they show signs of hunger, continue feeding, but stop once they’re no longer responsive to the food.

Q & A

What is the ideal feeding schedule for catfish (lele) in the video?

The ideal feeding schedule for catfish is three times a day: in the morning around 9:00 AM, in the afternoon after Asr prayer (around 3:00 or 4:00 PM), and in the evening around 8:00 or 9:00 PM.

Why is it important to match the size of fish feed with the mouth size of the catfish?

It is important because if the fish feed is too large for smaller catfish, they cannot eat it properly, which is a waste. Conversely, giving smaller feed to larger catfish is also inefficient and wasteful.

How does the time of day affect the catfish's appetite?

Catfish are less hungry in the early morning (around 6:00-7:00 AM) because the water is cold, and they have low appetite. It is recommended to feed them at around 9:00 AM when the water temperature is higher.

What is the importance of giving wet feed to the catfish?

Wetting the feed before giving it to the catfish ensures that the feed is softer and easier for the fish to consume. It also helps to reduce waste and prevents feed from sinking to the bottom of the pond.

How often should you use probiotics for catfish feed in the video?

Probiotics should be added to the feed every three days to help with digestion, improve appetite, and enhance the catfish’s immunity.

What is the role of probiotics in the catfish's diet?

Probiotics help to improve the catfish's digestive system, increase appetite, and boost the immune system, making the fish healthier and more resilient.

How can overfeeding or underfeeding affect the catfish?

Overfeeding leads to excess feed sinking to the bottom, which can cause water contamination and bad odors. Underfeeding can cause the fish to become malnourished and stunted.

How do you determine the right amount of feed for the catfish?

The right amount of feed is determined by observing the catfish’s response. If the feed is consumed quickly, you can add more. If the fish are less responsive, you stop feeding to avoid waste.

What should you do with leftover feed?

If feed is not consumed immediately, it can be reused during the next feeding time as long as it is within the same day. Leftover feed should not be stored for later days to avoid spoilage.

Why doesn't the speaker use precise measurements when feeding the catfish?

The speaker prefers to rely on 'feeling' rather than precise measurements because they know the condition of the catfish and can adjust the feed based on their behavior and hunger.
