Commonly found in Mediterranean countries. Temperate, subtropical and tropical waters. It is cultured worldwide.
Comparison between Chelon labrosus, Mugil cephalus & Liza aurata:
Comparison between Chelon labrosus, Mugil cephalus & Liza aurata:
Salinity, Food Preference, Dietary Protein & Granulometry were discussed
Salinity
Salinity
High levels of salinity can aggravate stressful condition
Food Preferences
Food Preferences
Diatoms, Blue green algae, Nematodes, Foraminifera, Macro plant detritus & small invertebrates
Dietary Protein
Dietary Protein
High levels of protein increases the rate of growth
Some of the Originally Planned Activities:
Some of the Originally Planned Activities:
Cleaning the Tank
Cleaning the Tank
The incoming water supply pipe was closed and valve at the bottom of the tank were closed for few second until the running water was clean
Grinding the Feed
Grinding the Feed
T2 Optiline 1P feed was grinded in the grinder, because smaller particles are easily consumed by fish
Giving Feed to Fish
Giving Feed to Fish
660 mg feed was given in 24 hours at 9:30 and 13:30
