The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of different stocking populations of tilapia nilotica fish in their aquaculture on some maintenance behavior, performance, economic values, and hormonal concentration levels. On this research, 300 tilapia nilotica fish were distributed into...

The present study was to explore the influence of stocking density on the growth, blood biochemistry, and antioxidant capacity indicators of Chinese perch (Siniperca chuatsi) cultured in the bank (60 cm× 60 cm×40 cm) based recirculating systems for 40d. Fish (average weight 175.76±15.85 g) were...

The striped catfish, Pangasianodon hypophthalmus, dominates in the Indian inland freshwater cage culture because of its rapid growth and adaptive feeding habits; however, suitable stocking density based on growth without compromising the health of fish is important. Furthermore, fish growth and...

African catfish hatcheries in Europe require economical fry availability throughout the year. Purpose of this study was to identify the best suitable stocking density and appropriate grading regime for African catfish fry of around 0.1 g in 3 experiments (E1, E2 and E3). In E1, 3 stocking densities ...

Scientific research into fish wellness is critical, and the concerns about crowding-related stress due to increased stocking density are inevitable. Taking this into consideration, the study defines the physiological signature of Ompok bimaculatus (Butter catfish) in a biofloc system when subjected ...

Welfare in farmed fish got particular attention during the last decades from both governmental and public sides. In aquaculture context, welfare concerns are mainly related to handling procedures, water quality and stoking densities. In Europe, authorities had to clarify the threshold limits of ...

Data from research and commercial use of lumpfish were collected from the research facilities of Gifas (Inndyr, Northern Norway, 67.0° N, 14.0° E). The data were sourced from 12 main lumpfish groups subdivided into 66 subgroups (N = 160,729) delivered to Gifas between 2013 and 2020 and used in...

Fish are widely used in scientific research, and many species are bred for ornamental purposes and human consumption. Despite the large number of fish kept in captivity, research on the welfare of these animals has only recently intensified. One commonly used method for improving fish welfare is...

Hatchery produced silver pompano, Trachinotus blochii fingerlings were stocked in nine cages at three different stocking densities of 15 (SD15), 10 (SD10) and 5 individuals m^-3 (SD5) in triplicate. The results indicated that the percent weight gain, specific growth rate, and average daily growth...

Aim: To rear stunted Labeo rohita fingerlings in cages and determine the optimum stocking density and feeding ration for better growth performance of fishes. Methodology: Eight-month-old stunted fingerlings of Labeo rohita (14.65 cm/38.23g) were stocked in floating net square cages at different ...
