There are two kind of fish feed diets on fish farming ,floating fish feed pellet and traditional sinking fish feed pellet .Both floating and sinking feed pellet can produce satisfactory growth, but different fish with different feeding requirements,some fish prefer floating, others sinking. The user choice of whether to use floating or sinking pellets mainly depends on which type of fish species that you have.
There are both advantage in the two types of pellets. but floating pellets provides more advantages compared to sinking ones:
1.Easy digestion
The digestive tract of fishes is short, the ripening degree of extruded fish feed has great influence on the growth of fishes,which is easy digestion by fish.
2.Less waste
Sinking type fish feed pellets that remain at the bottom of the tank will often get lost and wasted. But the floating feed pellets can retain its shape and floating on the the water more than 20 hours, uneaten feed are still intact.
3.Decrease Disease.
Sinking pellets that remain at the bottom of the tank will eventually rot, which may give rise to proliferation of bacteria and spreading of harmful fish disease.
4.Convenient Observation.
Floating fish feed pellet can float on the water ,the farmers can directly observe the feeding intensity of his fish and adjust feeding rates accordingly. Determining whether feeding rates are too low or too high is important in maximizing fish growth and feed use efficiency. However, sinking pellets will fall into the bottom of the tank, even fish can not find them.
In order to make feed nutrients of fish feed be absorbed by fishes to the greatest extent, extruded fish feed made by [url]fish feed pellet mill http://www.victorpelletmill.com/product/fish-feed-pellet-mill-for-sale/ should have good stability. So the ripening degree is an important factor for identifying feed quality. Sinking characteristic of sinking fish feed in another important factor. Good quality sinking fish feeds can all sink in the water and the sinking speed is controlled strictly.
According to above information,you can see that floating fish feed pellets have recently become readily available in quantities that may make their use more feasible. also save cost for fish farmer.
