High Density Rearing of Labeo Rohita(Hamilton) Spown Indoors Using Different Feeds - Panangad Department of Aquaculture, College of Fisheries 1998
Three day old rohu spawn was reared in indoor tanks with eight different feeds
The diets tried were newly hatched Artemia nauplii, size graded Moina micrura,
formulated feed, Artemia nauplii + formulated feed, Moina micura+ formulated feed,
first 3 days Artemia nauplii and formulated feed later on, first 3 days Moina micrura and
formulated feed later on and mixed zooplankton + ricebran and GOC in I: I ratio
(conventional method). The experiment was carried out in circular FRP tanks of 83 I
capacity with a stocking density of I 0,000/m3. The duration of the experiment was 21
days. The diets of Artemia nauplii and Moina have given higher mean SGR (16.45 and
15.3 respectively) and NBI (352.12 and 267.76 respectively) without any significant
statistical difference, while Moina+Formulated feed and Artemia+formulated feed have
given higher mean survival rates (88.6 and 88.3% respectively). Highest fat deposition
was noticed in Artemia fed spawn (21.01%) followed by Moina fed ones (20.98%). The
conventional method of spawn rearing was found to be highly ineffective.
