  1. Choice of feed

  The feeding habits of Zhanggong fish may change slightly as they grow. When they are still fry, they can be fed with water fleas, mosquito larvae, or animal-based feeds like egg yolk or minced meat. The amount of feed is generally about 3% to 10% of their body weight.

  As Zhanggong fish grows, other animal-based feeds can be gradually introduced. Additionally, they can also consume plant-based feeds with high protein content, such as cornmeal and soybean residue.

  2. Feeding schedule

  In our province, the feeding schedule for Zhanggong fish seems to have strict requirements. Generally, feeding is done twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon. The morning feeding usually takes place around 8 or 9 o'clock, while the afternoon feeding is around 18 o'clock.

  3. Feeding method

  Our breeders usually cut the feed into small pieces and adjust the feed's temperature to match the water temperature before feeding. Typically, the feed is placed on a feeding tray for the Zhanggong fish to consume.
