An oxygen supply pipe 3 located below the pool surface is provided in the training pond 2, and a plurality of air outlet holes 4 are evenly spaced along the axial direction thereof. A feeding window 8 is provided on the pool surface of the training pond 2, and the pool surface of the training pond 2 except for the feeding window 8 is covered with floating plants 5. Among them, the protective shed preferably adopts a transparent plastic greenhouse. The transparent plastic greenhouse is easy to obtain and has low use cost. It can ensure that the floating plants 5 in the acclimation pool 2 grow for a long period of time, are not withered by frost in winter, and are in the growth period all year round. The water in the acclimation pool 2 is replaced or supplemented through the water inlet pipe 1 and the water outlet pipe 11. By setting a protruding structure, it can gather microorganisms for snails to eat, and the snails are adsorbed by the protruding structure to avoid the snails being washed away by the water flow during the process of replacing or supplementing the pool water. The oxygen supply pipe 3 is connected to the oxygen pump, which is set at a position outside the acclimation pool 2. The oxygen pump, the oxygen supply pipe 3 and the air outlet 4 are used to increase oxygen in the acclimation pool 2, increase the dissolved oxygen in the pool water, and feed the snails in the pool water at a fixed point through the feeding window 8. The floating plants 5 are set outside the feeding window 8 to avoid affecting the addition of bait through the feeding window 8. The floating plants 5 are densely distributed and cover the pool surface except for the feeding window 8 to fully block light, highly imitate the original environment of the snail at the bottom of the water, purify the water quality, and the rotten roots of the floating plants 5 can be eaten by the snail. The various components of the entire domestication pool 2 can ensure that the wild living environment of the snail is highly imitated, thereby improving the survival rate of the snail.

[0024] Preferably, the outlet pipe 11 is provided with an outlet valve and connected to an outlet pump, and the inlet pipe 1 is provided with an inlet valve and connected to an inlet pump, so as to ensure that after the two valves are opened and the outlet pump and the inlet pump are connected, the water change work of the training pool 2 is completed.

The inlet of the circulation pipeline 10 extends into the acclimation pool 2 and is located below the floating plants 5. It is preferably provided with a filtering structure to prevent fish 7 or sludge from entering the circulation pipeline 10. The outlet of the circulation pipeline 10 is located above the pool surface of the acclimation pool 2. The circulation pipeline 10 is used to maintain a micro-flow of the pool water in the acclimation pool 2, thereby maintaining the pool water quality fresh. Preferably, the outlet of the circulation pipeline 10 is located above the feeding window 8 to reduce the impact on the floating plants 5.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the domestication pool 2 is an overall sloped structure, and the water inlet pipe 1 is located at the top of the slope of the bottom of the domestication pool 2, and the water outlet pipe 11 is located at the bottom of the slope of the bottom of the domestication pool 2, so as to facilitate the drainage of the domestication pool 2 and the accumulation of bottom mud at the bottom of the slope of the domestication pool 2, so as to facilitate discharge and keep the water fresh. Preferably, the slope of the bottom of the domestication pool 2 is 5‰, and in order to avoid obstruction of the bottom mud during the accumulation process, the domestication pool 2 is a regular rectangular structure to further ensure the smoothness of drainage and mud discharge.

[0027] Moreover, the raised structure is the stone 6 laid on the bottom of the breeding pond 2, which not only facilitates material acquisition and reduces the use cost, but also can effectively gather microorganisms by laying the stone 6 to ensure the feeding of the snails.

[0028] Furthermore, the feeding window 8 includes an annular ring 9 floating on the surface of the breeding pond 2. Preferably, the annular ring 9 is a plastic or foam structure, and the annular ring 9 is fixed to the edge of the breeding pond 2 to separate the floating plants 5 and surround a window without floating plants 5 to facilitate the placement of bait, etc.

[0029] Preferably, the oxygen supply pipe 3 is annular in structure and is arranged along the edge of the training pool 2, and the air outlet 4 is located at the top of the oxygen supply pipe 3 to ensure that the oxygen supply pipe 3 can evenly surround the training pool 2, thereby providing a stable amount of oxygen and ensuring the effectiveness of increasing the dissolved oxygen in the water.

[0030] Furthermore, fish 7 are mixed in the training pond 2, and the fish feces can be eaten by snails and absorbed by the floating plants 5 as nutrients. The fish 7 and snails are mixed in the ratio of 2:1 to ensure that the amount of fish feces can be supplied to the snails and the floating plants 5, while avoiding excessive fish feces affecting the water quality.
