Introduction: according to Xinhua news agency, Hong Kong, Sept 7 - recently, Hong Kong has tested hundreds of imported fish samples such as eel, and a considerable part of them have been found to contain carcinogenic substance "malachite green" For a time, the fishing market was depressed, and everyone talked about the "green" color change Lei Zhiqiang, chairman and general manager of Lei Qiang, who has been engaged in the aquarium industry for more than 40 years, said that raw salt can replace "malachite green", which can kill bacteria without side effects Lei Zhiqiang said that adding a proper amount of raw salt to the eel can not only make the eel feel "comfortable", but also sterilize, with better effect than "malachite green" According to reports, eel mainly grows at the junction of saltwater and freshwater, not pure freshwater fish If the eel is fed with fresh water in the mainland, the eel itself is not suitable In rainy season, the rainwater will increase the calcareous content of the fish pond, affect the respiration of the eel, and even cause death due to lack of oxygen Adding "malachite green" can reduce the impact of calcareous water on eel, which is widely used by inland fishermen Because malachite green is harmful to the body, Lei Zhiqiang suggested that raw salt should be used instead of malachite green to raise eel And the best way to raise eels is to pump a proper amount of seawater into the fish pond.
