However, although these crab slaves are barnacle-like creatures, their appearance is very different from the clusters of gray-white shelled barnacles on the coastal rocks!
The most striking feature is naturally its light yellow capsule.
When these guys are in their larval form, once they parasitize onto a sea crab, they will undergo a shelling and shed the soft shell on their bodies.
Then, from the joints of those sea crabs, it enters the body of the sea crab and completely parasitizes the sea crab.
There are a lot of these crab slave larvae, mainly distributed in the gathering places of sea crabs, all of them are waiting for suitable parasitism targets!
¡°When all these crab slave larvae find parasite targets, then a large number of sea crabs will be lost in their own fishing grounds!
Therefore, He Fan also sent a special WeChat message to consult with the marine crab expert on how to get rid of these crab slaves. The reply he received made He Fan not satisfied!
"Mr. He, if you want to remove these crab slave larvae, the most important way at present is to spray pesticides. However, this method is generally used in breeding ponds. Spraying pesticides on a limited area can be very effective. It is effective, but if your fishing ground is large, you may have to spray pesticides on a large scale, and you must also spread aquatic peptides to protect seaweed in advance to prevent the seaweed from being affected by those drugs. The process is too complicated and the cost is too high. Very high!"
Hearing the other party¡¯s suggestion, He Fan suddenly became worried.
Put aside, our fishery has never advocated the direct use of drugs to control pests and diseases. This will have some impact on the water quality and environment of our fishery!
Even if you follow the advice of this marine crab expert, people have said that this is a big project, and He Fan does not have the energy to slowly control these crab slaves!
At the moment, He Fan expressed his thoughts to the other party:
"Is there any other way? Spreading chemicals will really have a great impact on the sea environment!"
However, the other party's next sentence provided He Fan with an idea:
"Mr. He, if you don't want to take the method of spraying pesticides, there is really no good way. However, the international community is currently studying the method of removing barnacles to see if it can have an effect on these crab slaves. After all, , Crab slaves are also barnacle-like creatures!"
He Fan immediately slapped his thigh and said:
"Yes, this crab slave is also a barnacle species"
Soon, He Fan had a preliminary plan in his mind.
The final plan is still based on the method of biological management!
We are familiar with this method!
He Fan basically dealt with the previous marine fish diseases and insect pests, as well as a series of troubles such as red tide outbreaks, in accordance with the direction of biological management!
Needless to say, the benefits are that it will not pollute the environment at all and is very efficient. The only disadvantage is that ordinary people or fish farms cannot implement it at all!
After all, not everyone can spend a lot of money like He Fan to get so many cleaning shrimps, and can let these cleaning shrimps multiply in their own fisheries, control fish diseases, and the same goes for those anaerobic bacteria!
Now, He Fan plans to use the same method to control these crab slaves.
Those crab slaves are also barnacle-like creatures. He Fan¡¯s plan is to drive some creatures that usually feed on snails and barnacle-like creatures to devour all the crab slave larvae!
Soon, He Fan once again sent a red envelope to the marine crab expert and asked in passing:
"Do these crab slaves have any natural enemies?"
After a while, the other party replied:
"There is currently no specialized research on the natural enemies of crab slaves in the world, but the natural enemies of barnacles are mainly carnivorous echinoderms!"
After receiving the reply, He Fan also started to think about it. There are quite a few carnivorous echinoderms in his fishery!
Just by hearing the name echinoderm, you will know that it refers to those thorny guys. The main representative organisms are starfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, and sea anemones!
He Fan felt confident.
There are a lot of creatures like starfish in our fishing grounds, among other things. Before, the crown-of-thorns starfish almost brought disaster to our coral reefs!
Although He Fan used giant snails to expel these crown-of-thorns starfish from the territory of his own fishing ground, there are still many other species of starfish that are basically not very harmful in his own fishing ground, and the number will not cause a disaster. , after all, those clams?He did not want to repeat the mistakes of the farmers.
"There are not many sea anemones, and they cannot move at all. Sea urchins are also similar. As for those sea cucumbers, they are of no use. It seems that they can only drive those starfish!"
Soon, He Fan had a plan in mind.
At the moment, he used his spiritual consciousness to search for starfish in his fishing ground. Fortunately, there were a lot of starfish, almost distributed in every location, and He Fan easily spotted a bunch of them.
Then, He Fan began to think about how to drive these starfish to eat those crab slave larvae.
After all, compared to those sea anemones and sea urchins, these starfish are capable of moving on their own, but their speed is not very fast. Compared with those fast-moving species in the ocean, they are really slow!
So, He Fan thought of those bitter brothers in the Calamari Coolie Group!
Previously, when dealing with the tide of snow crabs, these squids showed extraordinary carrying abilities. With a suction cup, they could easily suck in many marine organisms and then carry them!
So, this time, He Fan still paid attention to these bitter brothers, used his spiritual consciousness to drive these squids, and began to search for traces of starfish in the territory of the fishing ground.
Then, move the found starfish to the gathering place where the crab slave larvae are!
However, what made He Fan a little dumbfounded was that after these starfish were moved to the place where the crab slaves gathered, they seemed to be confused and had no strong desire to prey on those crab slaves!
There were only two or three starfish that briefly preyed on a few crab slave larvae, and then stopped!
"How can this be possible!"
He Fan became anxious. If these starfish were not interested in these crab slave larvae, wouldn't his arrangement have been in vain?
No, He Fan was not too disappointed. He still had one trick left for him. He immediately entered the water and transformed into a swimming dragon. He quickly swam to where the crab slave larvae gathered and condensed a ball of water spiritual power.
Found the hiding place of the crab slave larvae, and directly used the water spiritual power in front of the crab slave larvae!
Pure water spiritual power is a great temptation for all marine creatures, and these crab slave larvae are naturally no exception.
Seeing these tempting water spiritual powers, these crab slave larvae hurriedly began to devour these water spiritual powers!
¡°Eat, eat, you¡¯ll be ready to go when you¡¯re full!¡±
Looking at these crab slave larvae that were devouring water spiritual power like crazy, He Fan murmured softly.
I waited and observed for a while, and sure enough, I saw the starfish that had been transported by the squid began to actively move towards these crab slave larvae! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
