Fish That Don't Know "Full". The Distance to Life Put into a Single Grain.
The sight of goldfish begging for food is truly adorable.We tend to want to give them more, but actually, their bodies lack a "certain sensation" that is natural for us humans.Juane * here.Hello.
Today, I would like to talk about the mysterious mechanism of goldfish "stomach" and the importance of us becoming their brakes.
The Secret of Endless Appetite
Does it look like goldfish keep eating forever when you feed them ? No wonder.Goldfish not only lack a "stomach" to store what they eat, but it is also said that the satiety center that feels "full" is not developed like us humans.
In the wild world, they don't know when they can get their next meal. The instinct to "eat as much as possible when they can eat" drives them.
We Become Their "Sensation"
When they appeal with their whole body saying "I want to eat more!", our hands extend unintentionally.However, for them who have no stomach and slow digestion, overeating puts a heavy burden on their bodies.We gently apply the brake that they cannot apply themselves.
"The water is cold today, so let's keep it at this amount."
"You ate a lot yesterday, so let's rest your stomach a little."
It is not unilateral management, but a very delicate dialogue time to listen to the voice of their bodies.
A Form of Love Called Watching
If you can confirm their energetic figures gathering at the water surface, that's the end. You may think "they still want it", but refraining from that one grain leads to protecting their shining scales and light swimming tomorrow.
Filling them up is not the only affection, but drawing a line for health.That quiet watching may be the secret to walking long and healthy with the small life called goldfish.
Tomorrow's Health Put into a Single Grain
For goldfish, feeding time is an important moment to receive life energy.Instead of the satisfaction of filling their stomachs, we may be handing them the gift of a "body that can swim energetically tomorrow".Facing the rhythm of their lives through a grain of food.We, Jun * Juane, while cherishing such moment - to - moment dialogues, hope to continue expressing the strength of life.
Lack of Satiety Center and Instinct: Cyprinid fish have instinctive feeding behaviors to constantly search for food, and it is said that it is difficult for them to feel a clear sense of fullness like mammals.Therefore, indigestion due to overfeeding is likely to occur in captivity.
Digestive Mechanism of Agastric Fish: Since there is no stomach, digestive juices are weak, and a large amount of food tends to rot in the intestines, which is a direct cause of swim bladder disease and internal organ diseases.
