Capítulo 58: Chapter 58: The Problem with Feed

Now they had fish fry, and they were all top-quality specimens. Their fish farming venture could finally take the first step.

What came next was the problem of feed.

Early the next morning, Suming went online to research "mixed sea fish."

Zhu Chenggui had mentioned that the key to polyculture lay with the snakehead fish; they needed to be fed mixed sea fish regularly to produce oily, nutrient-rich "snakehead poop," which would serve as high-energy food for the other species.

The so-called mixed sea fish weren't a single species but rather a collective term for many kinds of sea fish. These fish were either very small or simply did not grow big, and their taste was not as good as other sea fish. However, they were abundant: fishermen could haul up a lot with a single cast of their nets. Due to their low commercial value, they were usually sold by the ton, processed into feed, as a byproduct of fishing.
