eel aquaculture

Our current method for Eel Aquaculture in particular enlargement of the "clear water (clean / mud is not)". This method has been tested in some of the farmers that Pati, Holy, Semarang, Boyolali, Klaten and Subang. The results have been amazing during the first half the next - 2 months magnifying power is about the size of the ring finger and index finger with the adult worms eat 100%. But we "still" use mud media with a special method to perform the process pembenihannya. Maintenance medium for the cultivation of eels could be a cement pond, pool tarps, or even a drum. Eels are important not run out of media. Pool size is also adjusted to the availability of land, and this way also related to the amount of seed to be stocked eels. In addition to trying to resemble eels swam their natural habitat. To make this media pool filled with rice fields or ponds that have dried Mud, manure, compost (chaff / grain of rice that had rotted), rice straw, chopped bananas, Urea and NPK fertilizer, with a ratio as follows:

1. first layer of rice straw at 40 cm Bottom
2. Sprinkled evenly over the straw Urea and NPK 5 Kg 5 Kg
3. (For a pool size 500 cm X 500 cm, if the pool is a larger size or smaller, the ratio of fertilizer can be used as a benchmark above)
4. The second layer of soil / Lumpur as high as 5 cm
5. The third layer of manure as high as 5 cm layer of compost four setinggi5 cm
6. The fourth layer of soil / Lumpur as high as 5 cm
7. Mud fifth chopped banana trunks as high as 10 cm
8. The sixth layer of soil / Lumpur as high as 15 cm
9. The seven layers of water as high as 10 cm
10. On water hyacinth cultivated in merat ecenfg to cover three-fourths of the surface of the pond.

After all the media is filled pond maintenance, maintenance media was let stand for 2 (two) weeks to the entire media undergo a process of fermentation. And after 2 (two) weeks slesai poroses permentasinya seeds / seedlings eels can be incorporated into the pool maintenance. Eel Seed Selection techniques necessary eel seed selection is good and right, to get good quality eel and do not produce abnormal offspring, the seed selected must meet the following requirements: The limbs are still intact and smooth, ie there are no bite wounds,

1. Agile and aggressive body movements.
2. Its appearance is characterized from a healthy body is hard, not weak if in the grasp
3. He was small and brownish yellow
4. Age range 2 months - 4 months

Eels have a double sex (hermaphrodites) in his life. Eels are undergoing gender reassignment from female to male in their life cycle. Young eels are always androgynous females. While the long eel was always androgynous male. And because of the nature - the nature of the eel, eels may occur in the genital hiatus or a sissy. With eel sex change often occurs cannibalism, kill and eat each other among themselves. Eel good parent can be recognized from his appearance. For parents looking for a good eel, eels eels given the parents the following characteristics of male and female parent.

Food Eels 

Eels are naturally take different kinds of small animals that live or fall in the water. Such as insects, snails, worms. Children and young frog fish. So one of the eel is a fish-eating carnivorous animals. Young eels eat zooplankton, including protozoa such as smooth (single-celled animals), Mikrokrusasea (small crustaceans), Invertebrate microscopic (small invertebrate animals). While the start up beluta larvae eat insects, worms, snails, tadpoles of frogs, fish and seeds are still weak. Because eels live like animals, then it is not easy to find eel food. For that eels prey to the trap mnyergap menbuat. These holes are made denganmenggali Lumpur, both ditepian waters and in the rice field or marsh. This ambush hole diameter of 5 cm and elongated like a tunnel. Holes formed initially straight down, then bent and flat.<

Harvesting eel

To harvest eels, required timeliness of harvest and the harvesting. Storage containers also need to be prepared to bring in the harvest eels sales location.

Eels ready for harvest to local market needs from start sowing the seeds of at least 3 months (sisitem with enlargement) by the number of perkilonya about 20 to 30 individuals. To meet the needs of export markets began sowing the seeds of at least 6 months
