The Method Of Cultivating The Cork Fish In The Tarp Ponds

Cultivation of cork fish in a tarpaulin pond - 10 years ago it is very abundant cork fish especially in swamps  but with the development of time and development in society increasingly consequently many rivers that had many cork fish there began to decrease, -a kind of made in new land for rice fields there are also out because often in medicine, consequently many fish are dead.

Fish cork is a type of fish that has many functions as health one of them as a wound healer and there are many other benefits of cork fish for health it is actually more and more in the search for cork fish.
But because of the natural conditions that are not possible and fish corks thinning in nature then the only way is by way of cork fish culture, there is a cork fish farming technique that does not really need a large enough capital that is by making a pond using a tarpaulin.

The Method Of Cultivating The Cork Fish In The Tarp Ponds

Before we know the technique of cork fish culture with a tarpaulin pond is good we know first difference of male cork and female cork fish.

Characteristics of male cork fish: marked with the shape of the oval head with a slightly darker body color features other than that there are other characteristics of male corks have a hole in the red genital part and remove the seed fluid when the massage.

Characteristics of female cork fish:

the cork fish weighs usually in the head mark rather round with the body color contrast rather brightly in addition to the cork females have a rather large body and body texture is a little soft when the most prominent is when in the stomach later will remove the eggs.

Once we know the characteristics of male and female cork fish that we do on the cultivation process using a pond from the tarpaulin is the process of spawning cork, there are several stages that are done for spawning cork fish with a size of 7 x 4 meters with a depth of 2 meters after the pond is prepared because it is still a new condition in the swimming pool let it dried in advance about 3-4 days once after let the pond can be filled with water volume to the limit of 50 cm and then on the top to cool the pool can be used water hyacinth as water cover in the pond, because the nature of cork fish is like a cold place.

In the spawning process can be entered male and female cock fish each of 30 fish and spawning process should be done naturally when it happens spawning and have started out the eggs should be hunted eggs are taken using a smooth place and now the eggs are ready to hatch.

Make sure you always control the pond in this spawning process and the feeding should be routine so that the eggs that are produced do not get eaten by the fish, in the process of spawning the female fish will produce approximately 10,000-11,000 eggs.

Stages of hatching process - after the eggs are produced from fish cork and then separated the next stage is the process of hatching fish cork, hatching process can be done with aquarium container size 65 x 45 x 34 before in use for hatching eggs should be pool dried and let dry for 2 days, then can isis more coral water with a height of 40 cm, use 2 aeration points aquarium heater until the water reaches 28 degrees.

For egg density ± 65 grains / cm² let the hatching process occur; in the process of hatching cork fish eggs take up to 24 hours is caused because cork fish larvae have been equipped with food stock for 2 days after larvae of cork fish hatch tips do not need to give food because it is available at every larva of cork fish.

The selection of fish cork larvae - after the hatching process occurs next stage is the process of selection of cork fish larvae in this process you should enter the larvae of cork fish with a density of 5 larvae per 1 liter of water at the stage of maintenance of cork fish divided into 2 kinds:
In 2-day larvae, larvae should be fed naupili artemia with feeding of 3 times daily.
And in 5-day-old larvae there should be additional food for larvae that is feeding daphina for 3x a day.

Food can be replaced using egg white on this larva,

Maintenance of Cork Fish Using Tarpaulins

At this stage is the process of the final stage of the process of breeding is done by using the pond from the tarpaulin, the stage where the fish is easy for the breeding to grow in make consumption, the process of making ponds prepare a tarpaulin pond with a size of 2m-5m and let the tarpaulin pool dries for 1 week after this process is carried out the next stage is to provide additional soil from animal dung as thick as 30cm and dolomid lime fertilizer and then in less than 3 days for lime fertilizer can

soluble in the soil, this is done in order to produce natural food for fish cork later from the mixture of animal waste and lime will produce planktons as a natural food of cork fish and some lice and moss.
After this process is completed then the process of giving water into the pond approximately 50-100 cm and soak more or less for 1 week let the water calm and not in flow.

The next stage is the process of spreading the cork fish seeds, the process of spreading cork fish is done when the pond has been on leave for 2 weeks and should fish in stocked cork in the morning or late afternoon and then the cork fish in let and do not give feed first let it for 2 days then feeding using pellets.

The feeding technique in the process of feeding the cork fish is still the same using the special pellets of cork fish if there can also use pellets that are used for catfish, there are several mixtures that are used  other feeding such as anchovy, and kitchen waste.

There is a method of making pellets that can be used to feed the cork fish with a mixture of anchovies 20% bran 50% dregs know 10% and also 10% corn of all the mixture in boiled and mixed to 1 next the process of grinding the feed earlier and then dried feed until dry.

Because cork fish is cannibal, it is advisable to feed regularly and also not to delay this to prevent weak fish from being eaten by strong fish.


The stage of harvesting the fish - in this final stage we do is at the stage of harvesting process of cork fish, the need of cork fish in the market is very diverse so we can choose what age we will harvest, this is the excess fish cork to cultivate.
