The method for quantifying the characteristics comprises the following steps: the total number of the fishes is recorded, and the number of the fishes which do not enter the measuring tank 2 is counted, so that the mildness of the fishes can be reflected. The total number of the fishes entering the measuring pond 2 is counted, and after a period of time, the numbers of the fishes in the measuring pond 2 and the feeding system 4 are counted, so that whether the migration willingness of the fishes is strong can be reflected. The total number of fish is recorded, and after a period of time, the number of fish in the measuring pond 2 and the feeding system 4 is counted, and the escape rate of the fish can be represented by the ratio of the two.
The method for multi-stage verification comprises the following steps: the behavior of the fish can be verified in multiple stages by testing the mildness, migration willingness and escape rate of the fish.
The method for countering the evidence comprises the following steps: after the fish enters the measuring pond 2 and the feeding system 4, judging the tendency of the fish to be a variety with high escape rate; by providing the "Y" shaped feeder slot 42, the separated end of the feeder slot 42 communicates with the bi-directional feeding port 411 and the unidirectional feeding port 412, respectively, and it is observed whether or not the fish is willing to continue to try to migrate after being confused by the feed and failed by the unidirectional feeding port, and when the fish enters the measuring tank 2 from the feeding tank 43 and migrates to the adaptation tank 1, the fish is judged as a species with low escape rate. Thus, the feeding system provides a countercheck method for verifying the escape rate of fish.
Here, the water injected into the adaptation tank 1 in S1 is sufficiently aerated.
The escape rate is low, namely, under the anoxic and water-rising conditions, the fish variety which is not carried by water flow and has strong rinsing and migration will is used as the target variety.
The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention may be combined, and technical features in the embodiments may also be combined to form a new technical solution, and a structure that is not mentioned in the embodiments and can implement related functions in the embodiments is the prior art.
The foregoing is merely illustrative of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art will readily recognize that variations or substitutions are within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
