Vannamei Shrimp Growth DOC 20

Vannamei shrimp DOC 20, which is still at the beginning of cultivation, has an ideal growth rate of 1-2.5 grams per week. At the same time, the ideal weight is approximately 2 grams per head.

This ideal growth can be obtained if the number of shrimp populations in the pond is by its capacity. On the other hand, if the pond has excess capacity, the growth of the vannamei shrimp in it can be lower than the ideal growth average.

So, how do you cultivate vannamei shrimp DOC 20 or, more precisely during the early stages of cultivation? Like aquaculture in general, farmers must continue to control shrimp and pond water conditions every day. This is useful for detecting more quickly if anomalies in shrimp growth and water conditions can harm aquaculture.

Meanwhile, how to feed shrimp aged 20 days can be done by blind feeding method. While the type of feed given is in the form of granules with a frequency of 4 times a day and a feed dose of 25-15%.
