Hippocampus kelloggi artificial breeding method

Abstract

The invention discloses a hippocampus kelloggi artificial breeding method. According to the method, male and female hippocampuses, which are aged 1-2 and are healthy, intact, large and fat, are selected to be parent hippocampuses and then separately raised inside nursery ponds; after a period of intensive breeding, the gonad of the parent hippocampuses are nearly mature, during the breeding process, artificial heating is necessary, then the parent hippocampuses are polycultured and then spawn at a individual ratio of 1:1; female hippocampuses in the parenting period are intensively bred and protected, the operation is required to be soft and rapid, the out-water duration cannot be too long and the temperature difference should be less than 2-3 DEG C for avoiding abortion of the male hippocampuses; after giving birth, the male hippocampuses need to be removed out immediately for being bred away from hippocampus fry and accordingly are prevented from devouring or harming the hippocampus fry. The hippocampus kelloggi artificial breeding method provides technical support and theoretical foundation for large-scale commercialized hippocampus culture. According to the hippocampus kelloggi artificial breeding method, the breeding cost is reduced by 50-60%, breeding water quality can be easily controlled through the detection of various water quality indicators before hippocampus stocking, further high survival rate and high growth rate of the hippocampuses can be guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of seahorse breeding, in particular to an artificial breeding method for lined seahorses. Background technique [0002] Seahorses belong to the class Fish, Sea Dragons, and Seahorses. Mainly live in the Qianhai area. There are 8 seahorses in my country, and 6 species are common, among which Hippocampus ramulosus, Hippocampus trimaculatus Leach and Hippocampus kelloggi Jordan et Snyder are the main breeding species. The lined seahorse is mainly distributed in the coastal areas of Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan. Hippocampus is listed as a precious Chinese herbal medicine and is favored by domestic and foreign markets. It has the effects of strengthening the body and invigorating the kidney, strengthening the heart and promoting birth, eliminating phlegm and dissipating stagnation, reducing inflammation and reducing fever, pain relief and hemostasis. It has a wide range of uses and a large market, and the supply excee...
