Chapter 155 Trial production of pellet ornamental fish feed

The fish feed sold by the fire dragon aquarium has been widely praised by customers, and they all say that this kind of seemingly rough cake is very fond of eating by the fish babies at home, and they are grabbed every time they are fed.

Some regular customers also report that the combination of fish feed and special water can enhance the physique of ornamental fish, reduce illness, and be more lively and cute.

The only drawback is that the dough cake is too rough to make and package, it needs to be broken and fed to the fish, the size is not easy to master, and the slag is easy to fall to the ground. There also seems to be a problem with storage and shelf life in summer.

Therefore, I hope that the aquarium will change the bread into small granule packages and divide them into different models of large, medium and small fish, so that it is very convenient to feed the children.

Most people who live in the city are very busy every day, and raising fish and flowers is to adjust their life after work and relieve tension.

In view of the needs of customers, Luo Fatzi looked up a lot of fish feed classification and production methods on the Internet, and then decided to trial produce a new product.

In the evening, Luo Fatzi returned to the bun shop with Li Fangcheng, found Uncle Qi by the fish pond, and discussed with him about making commercial fish feed.

Uncle Qi was using homemade dough cakes to break and feed the fish, and he knew that the aquarium shop was fully responsible for Luo Fatzi, which was clearly explained by Boss Xiao Li, and he should cooperate.

"Fatty, it's a bit difficult to make small packages of fish food, you see now we are feeding dough cakes, which are generally used up in no more than three days, of course, the bread made with special water should be stored longer than ordinary ones, but the weather is so hot, I estimate that the shelf life will not exceed one week." Uncle Qi said while feeding the fish.

The crushed dough cake fell into the water, and the fish rushed to eat it, and the water surface continued to stir up ripples.

"Uncle Qi, you can't use this kind of fluffy dough cake to make a small package, you have to dry it and make it like a biscuit, and then find a packaging factory to use a small bag to encapsulate, so that the storage time will be very long." Luo Fatzi explained that he had done his homework in this area.

Most of the hardcover fish feed sold on the market now belongs to puffed pellet feed, and the advantages of puffed feed are long shelf life, good shape stability in water, slow dissolution, and enough time to facilitate fish ingestion. However, the disadvantage is that after the puffing process, nutrients, especially vitamins, are lost greatly.

However, the stability of the special dough cake for feeding fish made by the steamed bun shop in the water is certainly not as stable as that of puffed fish feed, but because of the delicious taste and the great temptation of the fish, basically as long as it is put into the water, it will be immediately eaten by the fish, so there is almost no waste and water spoilage caused by residual bait.

"Oh, that's right, you can try it." Uncle Qi nodded in agreement.

Luo Fatzi asked Uncle Qi to prepare some things, and he could do the rest himself.

That night, Luo Fatzi said hello to Li Youran, and when he didn't go home, he developed fish feed in the store, and went to his two subordinate rooms to make do with it at night.

Li Fangcheng went to school, and Luo Fatzi called Huzi to go to the kitchen to do it together.

Uncle Qi has asked people to prepare a good dough with standard flour and cornmeal, and also add vegetable residue and some fish meal and shrimp powder.

The dough has woken up, and Luo Fatzi pulls the dough into long strips and lets Huzi put it in the meat grinder.

Huzi shakes the handle of the meat grinder, the dough is squeezed out in the shape of noodles, catches it with a tray, and sprinkles some bean noodles to prevent sticking.

Place the noodles on a cutting board and chop them with a kitchen knife to form pellets, then place them in a baking tray and bake them in the oven.

In about half an hour, with the sound of the oven "bell", the new fish feed is freshly baked.

"Well, it's fragrant." Huzi leaned over his nose and sniffed.

"Would you like to try it?" Luo Fatzi smiled. …,

"Forget it, it's for the fish. By the way, fat brother, wouldn't it be more fragrant if you put some oil? When we were in the countryside, we made fishing bait, except for earthworms, dough and sesame oil. Huzi made a suggestion.

"It's not good to use oil, it's easy to snort, and it's not easy to preserve." Luo Fatzi explained.

"Now this thickness is suitable for large fish to eat, and after mass production is formed, it can be made into three specifications: large, medium and small, which is suitable for different kinds of ornamental fish. Okay, now go find a fish and try the new flavor. Luo Fatzi said as he found a bowl and scooped some of the fish feed that was still hot into it with a spoon.

Huzi is strange, where are there ornamental fish in the store? Luo Fatzi motioned for Huzi to follow.

The two went straight to the south warehouse on the first floor, and Luo Fatzi turned on the room lights and fish tank lights in turn.

"Wow, it's beautiful, it's also an Arowana, right? Quite a few words "Huzi saw Lan Lan for the first time, he was surprised, this fish is much more beautiful than all the fish in the aquarium, and the blue luster of that body shines under the illumination of the light, like a dream."

"Of course it's beautiful, I still need you to say, this is the Arowana King of Tianhai City this year, can it be bad?" Luo Fatzi showed a rare and strange expression on his face.

"Fat brother, why don't you put such a great fish in the aquarium shop?" Huzi asked curiously.

"Hey, you think I don't want to. But this is the wild girl's baby pet, and the wild girl has to see it every day. You know no, someone offered 400,000 yuan and didn't sell it. Luo Fatzi remembered the scene on the day Lan Lan won the championship, and couldn't help but regret.

"Four...... Four hundred thousand, a fish? Huzi felt that his head was a little insufficient.

"In these days, there are many rich people, what is 400,000? At the auction held by the Jinchangde Auction Company a few days ago, a piece of high-grade jadeite half the size of a palm was finally auctioned for 13 million. Luo Fatzi remembered the news published in the newspaper.

Huzi was almost stunned, the last time the cockfight won, he divided 70,000 yuan, and there were tens of thousands left in addition to paying off the debt. In this way, they all feel that they are already very rich, and now it seems that they are simply frogs at the bottom of the well.

"Okay, don't think about it so much, let's do the job in front of you." Luo Fatzi said, touched the fish feed in the bowl, it was not too hot, he took out a few and put them into the fish tank.

The pellet fish eater has not been puffed and sinks quickly, but Lan Lan reacts very quickly, smelling the food and swallowing, it took a total of two seconds, and then approached the fish tank wall, wagging his tail to make a gesture of wanting to continue eating.

"This fish is so smart." Huzi has never seen such a humane fish, and today is really an eye-opener.

"Arowana have a long lifespan, and if they are well raised, they can live for decades, and their IQ is certainly higher than that of other fish. Well, this fish food is no problem, Lan Lan likes to eat it, and it is estimated that other fish are not bad. Luo Fatzi was very satisfied with the results of his labor tonight, and threw some fish food into the fish tank, and Lan Lan quickly collected all the orders, and not a single grain was wasted.

"Yes, I'll take some to the store tomorrow, and if it's okay, we can mass produce them." Luo Fatzi nodded and said......,
