Chapter 22 Breed Improvement?

After checking the information of aquarium fish, Huo Sining picked and selected, and finally targeted three kinds of fish. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The first is of course the koi mentioned by Mrs. Xu, and the other two are Arowana and Hua Luohan.

The reason for choosing these three types of fish is simple, because all three types of fish have one thing in common, that is, they are expensive.

All three species of fish have been sold at auction for millions.

As one of the most sought-after stars in the ornamental fish market, Arowana is said to ward off evil spirits in addition to its beautiful appearance and color resembling dragons in Chinese mythology.

As a protected and endangered species, Arowana is more expensive than other ornamental fish, making it a symbol of wealth.

The flower arhat is an improved variety, with a huge body size, and the huge sarcoma on the forehead is the biggest selling point.

Because the big forehead is like a Luohan birthday star, the appearance is very unique, so it is loved by many fish lovers.

It's just that it is said that it is necessary to raise a first-class flower arhat, and the elimination rate has reached more than 90%.

Therefore, there is also a great disparity in the price of flower arhats, with cheap tens and hundreds, and rare genuine products need tens of millions.

As for the koi fish mentioned by Mrs. Xu, it is the most popular high-end ornamental fish.

Koi fish have a healthy physique, bright colors and changeable patterns, and koi have a long lifespan, which can live for dozens or hundreds of years.

And because koi fish means auspiciousness and brings good luck to people, it is a popular feng shui fish and ornamental in China.

Among these three types of fish, koi fish are the easiest to breed and raise, and the requirements for breeding water quality are not high, and the price varies according to the size and quality of the species.

Moreover, there is a large gap between the seedling stage of koi fish and the finished product, and ordinary fry may also grow excellent lines if they are treated properly.

This trait was of course loved by Huo Sining at the first time, and of course she would not buy those expensive finished fish, she would target the young fry.

With the water beads, Huo Sining is confident that those fish can undergo a qualitative transformation in his hands.

According to the guidance of people on the Internet, Huo Sining found a nearby flower, bird, insect and fish market.

Huo Sining's understanding of fish is still limited to the edible fish sold in the vegetable market and traditional goldfish.

It is better to see than to hear, since you want to raise ornamental fish, you must see it yourself.

When he came to an ornamental fish store, as soon as he entered the door, Huo Sining saw dozens of colorful angelfish in a large aquarium, several of which were of the same species as the German Korean pine raised by Mrs. Xu.

Huo Sining couldn't help but ask the owner of the shop: "Master, how do you sell this German red pine?"

The boss was busy feeding the fish in his hand, and he didn't even raise his head, and asked, "Do you want a high-quality Delao pine or an improved product?"

Huo Sining pointed to the aquarium in front of him and asked, "What's the price?"

The boss raised his head and glanced at the fish tank pointed by Huo Sining: "That's an improved product made of royal blue and pigeon blood, if you want it, I will sell it to you for 5,000." ”

In other words, the colorful angelfish raised by Mrs. Xu is not genuine, it is a hybrid breed?

Huo Sining couldn't help but think of the changes that happened to his fish after Bizhu was cured, and couldn't help but be a little curious:

"Boss, is there a kind of Ashkenazi red pine that looks particularly dazzling than this improved version with darker colors and straighter stripes?"

The boss glanced at Huo Sining with a smile and said with a smile:

"Little girl, you shouldn't be here to smash the field, right? If you want to buy authentic German eyes, I'm sorry I don't have them here, but you may not be able to find one even if you go all over S City, not to mention the pure second generation in S City, even the third generation after genetic stability is difficult to encounter. If you really want it, I have a boutique Delao pine here, and the price is a little more expensive than the improved version, eight thousand. ”

Huo Sining was stunned when she heard this, she forgot to check the information of the angelfish when she was in the Internet café before, and now she listened to the meaning of this boss, as if it meant that the ones she just described were the appearance characteristics of the eyes of the authentic German?

If this is the case, does it mean that the hybrid colorful angelfish she raised at home has been cured by her and improved into a purebred?

Huo Sining's heart skipped a beat, and she resisted the urge to go back and find out, and she turned her eyes to the other fish tanks, and began to pay attention to the species of each ornamental fish in the store.

His eyes fell on a blood-red Arowana that looked like it was pure, and the red fish body was bright and dazzling, which surprised Huo Sining.

The boss followed behind Huo Sining, and when he saw Huo Sining walking around the store, he asked the price and didn't buy the fish, so he immediately became impatient:

"Little girl, do you want to buy fish?"

Huo Sining was watching intently, and when he heard the boss ask, he replied casually: "Well, I want to buy some fish fry and sell them to make money." ”

"Raising fish fry to make money?"

The boss was dumbfounded when he heard this, he has been in the industry for so many years, and he still doesn't dare to say such big things, this little girl really dares to say it.

He couldn't help laughing, looked at Huo Sining and said disdainfully: "Little girl, this ornamental fish is not a playhouse, it's not as simple as you think." ”

Huo Si rather didn't care what the boss was thinking, she looked around the store, didn't find the koi fry she wanted to buy, and didn't linger anymore, turned around and left directly, and then entered the second store, making the boss angry enough.

But then I looked at a few stores and didn't see koi fry, koi do have them, but they sell all adult fish.

Not to mention the size of those adult koi fish, the price is also frighteningly expensive, and the quality is actually not good, and the texture is shallow and miscellaneous.

Huo Sining was disappointed, and at this time, she heard a quarrel from the other side.

"Boss, don't bully the novice, young man, don't believe the words of this dealer, these koi have no spirit at all, and the color is dull, there must be something sick!"

Huo Sining subconsciously looked over there, and saw a few wooden basins placed in front of a vendor across the road, and several customers were pointing around those wooden basins.

Hearing that the vendor was selling koi seedlings, Huo Sining suddenly became interested and hurriedly went up.

I saw that there were hundreds of red koi fry in those wooden basins, but those fry looked sickly, not at all as active as the fish that Huo Sining had seen in the aquariums of those stores before.

There was a young man in the crowd of onlookers who wanted to buy a few and go back to try his luck, but he didn't expect to be bored by a familiar old man next to him who was familiar with the price as soon as he opened his mouth to ask the price, and he immediately hesitated.

When the peddler saw the young man retreating, he immediately became anxious, and secretly hated the old immortal for interfering with his business, but he explained with a smile on his face:

"Handsome guy, don't listen to their nonsense, my fish has just been transported to S City after a long distance, and I haven't had time to go back to the tank, so it's normal for this lack of spirit, you just need to take it back and raise it for two days." And you look at this color, this is still a seedling is so bright, and the finished product must be the best red and white, and the fake one pays ten. ”

The young man hesitated, but the old man who persuaded him next to him scoffed when he heard this:

"The koi fry sold in this ordinary store are at least more than 12 centimeters of seedlings, and your koi are obviously less than three inches, such fry do not have much immunity, and novices can't raise them if they don't have technology. And you say that this is an authentic red and white koi, is it? This fish has not yet grown, no one can say what it looks like, and now it is not that there are no koi fry to cheat, and your fake guarantee of one to ten cannot be counted at all, and when something goes wrong with this fish, you have long since disappeared, where can you find it?"

The peddler suddenly became angry, and when he was told that he had hit the heart of the matter, he dared to refute the old man again, and scolded weakly:

"The bad old man who doesn't die is a good thing, forget it, the old man is not for sale!"

As he spoke, he was about to move those wooden basins to a tricycle, but Huo Sining was in a hurry when he saw it, so he hurriedly grabbed the vendor and said with a smile:

"Big brother, don't be in a hurry to leave, pick a few for me first, as long as it's beautiful, it doesn't matter if it's big, the cheaper the better." ”
