Effects of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) stocking and artificial feeding on water quality and production in rohu–common carp bi-culture ponds
Previous research showed that stocking1.5 rohu (Labeo rohita) and 0.5 common carp (Cyprinus carpio) m-2 yields the highest production in small holder ponds in Bangladesh.The present studylooked into the e¡ects of additional stocking of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis nilotica) in fed or non-fed ponds...

| description | Previous research showed that stocking1.5 rohu (Labeo
rohita) and 0.5 common carp (Cyprinus carpio) m-2
yields the highest production in small holder ponds in
Bangladesh.The present studylooked into the e¡ects of
additional stocking of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis nilotica)
in fed or non-fed ponds on water quality and ¢sh
production. A low, additional stocking density of
0.2 Nile tilapia m-2 was tested. All treatments were
executed in triplicate in 100m2 ponds and the duration
of the experiment was 4.5 months. The results
showed that tilapia addition increased nutrient concentrations and reduced total suspended solid concentration and phytoplankton biomass (Po0.05).
Tilapia stocking resulted in additional production
without a¡ecting the growth and production of rohu
and common carp. Supplemental feeding increased
the nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations, phytoplankton
availability and the growth and production
of rohu and common carp (Po0.01).The combination
of supplemental feeding and tilapia stocking resulted
in a higher net yield than the other treatments
(Po0.05). Stocking 1.5 rohu, 0.5 common carp and
0.2 tilapia m-2 in fed-ponds is a good culture combination
for polyculture farmers in South Asia. |
