Download or read book Intensive Culture of Common Carp Cyprinus Carpio An Experimental Analysis written by Saurav Lamichhane and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-21 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Biology - Zoology, grade: 3.87, course: Bachelor of Science in Fisheries, language: English, abstract: In this study, intensive common carp (Cyprinus carpio) culture was conducted from 2nd October to 28th October in experimental cemented tank of 25 m2 of Fish hatchery complex, AFU to learn to produce common carp through intensive culture. Intensive culture is a system where fish are culture in a well-managed manner and this system includes small ponds, tanks, and raceways with very high stocking density. In this system, fish is almost completely fed on formulated feed and good management is undertaken for controlling all aspects which require proper growth. Production of common carp is increasing so, intensification of its production from extensive to semi-intensive and intensive aquaculture systems is a new trend. The stocking density was 250 fish at the rate of 10 fish/m2. Average body weight of 27.9±9.8 g fish were stocked in the tank and feeding was done at 3% of body weight. Feed was made from mustard oil cake (70%) and rice bran (30%), a feeding tray having an area of 50x50 cm2 was used for feeding. Sampling was performed at a ten days interval and feeding was adjusted accordingly. The average temperature, DO and pH of the culture tank of 5:30 am and 3pm was 28.7±0.9 and 30.2±1.2°C, 7.1±1.3 and 12.4±1.6 mg/L, 7.7 and 7.8 respectively which were within the suitable range for culturing. After harvesting, the total harvested weight of fish was 12.9 kg while total stocking weight was 7.4 kg. Mean harvest weight of fish was 54.4±28.6 g while mean stocking weight was 27.9±9.8 g. The survival rate of fish was 97.6%. The extrapolated GFY and NFY obtained was 72.6 and 30.8 t/ha/year respectively. The fish were handed over to Aquaculture farm, AFU which they will rear further in tanks and ponds. During culturing water was exchanged daily in the morning for maintaining proper water quality. Thus, the results sug

Book Aquaculture in China

Download or read book Aquaculture in China written by Jian-Fang Gui and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 1074 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fish have been a major component of our diet and it has been suggested that fish/seafood consumption contributed to the development of the human brain, and this together with the acquisition of bipedalism, perhaps made us what we are. In the modern context global fish consumption is increasing. However, unlike our other staples, until a few years back the greater proportion of our fish supplies were of a hunted origin. This scenario is changing and a greater proportion of fish we consume now is of farmed origin. Aquaculture, the farming of waters, is thought to have originated in China, many millennia ago. Nevertheless, it transformed into a major food sector only since the second half of the last century, and continues to forge ahead, primarily in the developing world. China leads the global aquaculture production in volume, in the number of species that are farmed, and have contributed immensely to transforming the practices from an art to a science. This book attempts to capture some of the key elements and practices that have contributed to the success of Chinese aquaculture. The book entails contributions from over 100 leading experts in China, and provides insights into some aquaculture practices that are little known to the rest of the world. This book will be essential reading for aquaculturists, practitioners, researchers and students, and planners and developers.

Book An Atlas of Comparative Vertebrate Histology

Download or read book An Atlas of Comparative Vertebrate Histology written by Donald B. McMillan and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-06-04 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atlas of Comparative Vertebrate Histology looks at the histology of a wide range of vertebrates, representative of all the major classes and families, with examples ranging from amphioxus to primates. The authors focus their microscope on commonly seen vertebrates as well as 'non-standard' species, such as lamprey, hagfish, dogfish, skate, rock bass, cod, river catfish, toad, amphiuma, leopard and bull frog, garter and brown snake, Coturnix quail and cowbird. The study of comparative histology in the vertebrates helps students and researchers alike understand how various groups have addressed similar problems, opening doors to interesting research possibilities. Not all vertebrates follow the mammalian model of tissue and organ structure. When dealing with unique species, we see some structures taken beyond their 'normal' function. Comparative histology allows us to understand the structural responses underlying the physiology unique to each vertebrate group. - Presents the histology of a wide range of vertebrates, representative of all the major classes and families, with examples ranging from amphioxus to primates - Includes an image gallery with over 500 flat images and 50+ virtual microscopy slides - Contains electronic content features cross linking between text, tables and the image gallery

Book Diseases of Carp and Other Cyprinid Fishes

Download or read book Diseases of Carp and Other Cyprinid Fishes written by David Hoole and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyprinids rank as one of the most commercially important groups of freshwater fishes and are exploited for many purposes; as a human food source, especially in Europe and Asia; as sport fish; and as ornamental fish for ponds and aquaria. Certain species are also cultured as bait fish and several of the small cyprinids such as the zebra fish have become internationally accepted laboratory models for toxicology testing and molecular research. A thorough understanding of cyprinid health and diseases is fundamental to the successful management and exploitation of these fishes for freshwater fisheries, pisciculture and ornamental productions. This practical guide to disease diagnosis, prevention and control includes numerous colour plates and covers a comprehensive array of diseases - infectious and non-infectious - of cultivated and wild cyprinids.

Book Tilapias  Biology and Exploitation

Download or read book Tilapias Biology and Exploitation written by M.C.M Beveridge and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Referred to in the Bible, pictured on the wall-friezes of ancient Egyptian tombs, and a subject of fascination for generations of scientists, the tilapias (Cichlidae: Tilapiini) have featured in the diet and culture of humankind for thousands of years. The present century has seen their spread from Africa throughout the tropics and sub-tropics, largely for food and fisheries purposes. This book attempts to pull together our knowledge of this important group - their biology and fisheries and aquaculture - in a single volume, something that has not been done comprehensively for nearly two decades. A succession of chapters by acknowledged authorities covers evolution, phylogenetic relationships and biogeography, reproductive biology, mating systems and parental care, diet, feeding and digestive physiology, environmental physiology and energetics, the role of tilapias in ecosystems, population dynamics and management, genetics, seed production, nutrition, farming, economics and marketing. The book is aimed at biologists, fisheries scientists, aquaculturists, and all interested in aquatic ecology.

Book A Retrospective Review of Carp Polyculture in Nepal

Download or read book A Retrospective Review of Carp Polyculture in Nepal written by Saurav Lamichhane and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2021-05-20 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Agrarian Studies, grade: 3.84, , language: English, abstract: This paper is a retrospective review of Carp Polyculture in Nepal. Polyculture is an art and science of growing two or more compatible fish species in a pond to maximize production by taking advantage of different spatial distribution and feeding habits. Polyculture concepts rely on the complete utilization of various spatial niches and trophic of a pond to acquire a maximum production per unit area. Carp polyculture is the most common, popular, and successful aquaculture system in Nepal. Carp polyculture is the major aquaculture system contributing to more than 90% of total aquaculture production in Nepal. In 2018/19, total fish production, aquaculture, and productivity were 91,832 t, 70,832 t, and 4.92 t/ha, respectively, which is insufficient to fulfill the growing demand for fish in Nepal. Therefore, it is essential to increase production and productivity.
