Making Fish Feed Pellets


When making fish feed pellets, something you should pay attention to:

2. Palatability
The different smell sended out by feed is significant basis for preliminary identification of the aquarium fish feed pellets. As a general rule, qualified feed pellets send out fishy smell and fragrance. So some phagostimulant can be added to the fish feed pellets to improve the palatability, and aquarium fish will be attracted to take feed pellets actively. At present, some common phagostimulant includs amino acid and mixture, sulfur-containing organics, nucleic acid and extractive from flora and fauna.

3. Stability
Fish feed pellets should be kept not loosen in water so that the nutrition can be saved and fish can take feed successfully. On the other hand, if the feed pellet loosed in water, the water quality will be polluted and then the regular growth of the fish can be affected. As for the waterproof of aquaculture feed pellets, there are usually two methods: one is increasing the material rich in starch, like wheatmeal; the other is adding binder to feed pellets. Now, binders mainly refers to sodium salt or calcuim salt of bentonite, sodium alginate, carboxymethocel, lignosulfonate, semicellulose and so on. Choose a suitable binder, you should not only consider the effect of the binder on the pelletizing, but also the palatability, safety and nutrient content.
