What do snakehead fish eat?

1. Snakehead fish like to eat small fish; farmed snakehead fish can be fed bright bait, shrimp, octopus, fish meat, or even pork skin with white fat.

2. Snakehead fish bait includes animal offal and various small fish and shrimp, etc. Some farmers also feed chicken intestines. If you raise yellow mealworms, fly maggots or earthworms yourself, you can both solve the bait problem and greatly reduce farming costs.

3. Snakehead fish can also be fed artificial compound bait, with the formula: 70% minced mixed fish and shrimp paste, 20% soybean powder, 5% yeast powder, and the remainder being multivitamin mineral salts, growth promoters and antibiotics. Feed twice a day, with the feeding amount at 5%-7% of the fish body weight, until most fish are full.
