How to Cultivate a Gurame in the Pool
To cultivate the carp, then you can choose what type of pool that you will use to rear the gouramy seed is like the way of carp culture in concrete pond. But for this post we will provide information on how to cultivate the carp in the ground pool with the steps as follows:
1. Knowing the Gender
Knowing how to differentiate between male gurame and female gurame is what you should know as a base for cultivation.
Male males have a slimmer body shape while females have more rounded bodies.
Male Gurame is more agile and aggressive than female carp
Male males have foreheads and prominent heads whereas females do not.
The male belly button is tapered. the stomach of female gurame mebulat
Female scales female scales are open and males have normal arrangement
The male fins are brightly colored black while the females are white in color.
Male and female shaped male reproductive organs are oval shaped.
2. Stage of Parent Selection
The best broodstock selection will be done in any fish cultivation, including when carrying the carp. In order for you to produce a good harvest then you really should start from the breeders healthy and superior as well. The main thing in the selection of the parent is to know that the brood you choose is indeed ready to be fertilized or spawning.
Male breeders must weigh between 2 and 2.5 kg and also have a 2 year old. Where other traits are to observe regular and large scales. Body color is bright and has good physical health. As for the female sires at least weighs 2.5 to 3 kg. Same with the male portion of at least 2-year-old female, where the genitalia has been red.
3. Determining the Location of the Pond Making
Although it does not require a special requirement, however you must specify the location of the pool. At least the pool will have to be in a large area and also clean of all things that can disrupt the growth of carp. Use the method of making a good soil pond where the water discharge is 15 to 20 m with a water pool height reaches 70 cms as the way of carp farming.
4. Preparing the Soil Pond
After you have prepared the land to make a pool of land then you only need to clear the weeds and dig the soil. Dry the soil for 3 days, dry the soil pond to form a crack in the soil.
If the soil has been seen cracked then this indicates the soil has been free from disease seeds. However, you must first make a water gate before you enter the water into the pond like the way of cork fish culture.
This is done so that no animals or pests can enter the pool water. Fertilization also needs to be done on the pond in the form of manure and chicken manure.

5. Spawning
Parent who has been selected will adapt first to the condition and the environment of the pool water even not infrequently it will take 2 weeks so they can interact with each other. Once they are comfortable each other then the males will make a nest and attract the attention of female breeders. Then spawning will occur when the usual atmosphere of the afternoon before the evening and after that the females will start removing their eggs.
6. Feeding
When the gouramy seeds have started to hatch and develop then the most important thing is to feed. Where feeding of carp fish that is still in the period of maintenance should be done gradually. Feed 3 times daily from morning, noon and afternoon. In addition to feeding in the form of pellets you can also give genjer leaves, kankung leaves, cassava leaves and sante leaves. If the gurame looks hungry then you can give more than the usual amount of feed.
7. Pond Treatment
When you do carp culture then you also have to do pond maintenance. Where a manicured pond will produce a healthy carp and free from disease. Check the volume of the pond water so that no fish are sick, see also the color of the pond water if it looks very dirty and cloudy then do the change of pond water, check also pH and temperature of the pool water.
8. Treatment
The carp consumes quite a lot of time to harvest. This will be very much different when compared with other fish that range of maintenance time to harvest is only 1 to 2 months duration. A carp is usually 75 days to enjoy the harvest. But the length of time this maintenance will give time for breeders to choose and determine the next carp breeding where it takes 2 years to become a parent.
9. Size of Gurame Fish
Gurame has several stages of growth and this also will cause the diversity of the size of the carp body before adulthood and can be harvested. Where each size of the growth of the carp has its own names such as the size of oyong seeds, razor blades, telapactangan, cigarette packs up to the common size that is usually used as a fish to be consumed.
Preparation Before and When to Harvest
In order for you to harvest from the carp then you can do the water pool volume reduction first. Check out the flow of water in the pond until it becomes smaller until only the smallest hole at the corner of the pool is left.
You can put small foliage placed on top of the water hole to make the harvested fish comfortable.
Prepare a net for you to more freely harvest large carp fish and stretch from the direction of the end of the pond, then pull the net slowly. then move the fish with your net from the net to a better place like basin or drum and can also use other places.
11. Post-Harvest Treatment
There are several things you should do after harvesting:
Paying attention to the density of carp fish placed in a place, not too dense because it will make the fish easy to die.
Move the fish to another place to reduce the level of density.
Well so the way of carp cultivation using a pool of land, hopefully can help and broaden your horizons.
