Zusammenfassung:It has proven easier to make live caught fish accept the feed if this has a soft consistency. A soft consistency is achieved by having a significantly higher content of water than the approximately 10 % found in dry feed. A soft feed is basically a paste which can contain all of the required nutrients, and which is formed into pieces of feed, manually or by extruding it through an orifice e.g. in a sieve plate. Presumably it is the soft texture that makes this feed more acceptable to the fish than dry feed. After the fish has become accustomed to a soft feed this feed can continue to be used until the fish has reached the desired size. Alternatively the fish can adapt to a dry formulated feed after accepting the soft feed as food.
