Changes in swimming speed of larval and juvenile nigorobuna Carassius auratus grandoculis associated with growth and exercise training in running water

Abstract: Changes in swimming speed of larval and juvenile nigorobuna Carassius auratus grandoculis associated with its growth and exercise training in running water were investigated in order to obtain basic data for considering the eŠective release strategies for the stock enhancement program in Lake Biwa. As a result, increase in burst speed was observed until approximately 16 mm in standard length (SL). During the juvenile stage (≧16 mm SL), a rapid increase in the cruising speed and a marked increase in the swimmin… Show more

“…The commencement of migration of bentho‐pelagic cyprinids from littoral to deeper zones in shallow lakes often coincides with changes morphology (Bohl, ; Hammer, ; Rheinberger et al, ; Mark et al, ). During the juvenile stage (>14·2 mm L S ) of G. caerulescens , a marked increase in both cruising and burst speed has been observed (Fujiwara, ). During the sub‐adult stage (>19·7 mm L S ), the bodies of G. caerulescens are covered with scales and individuals begin to swim in midwater (Nakamura, ).…”

“…Accordingly, G. caerulescens begin moving to the pelagic zone after the juvenile stage, having acquired the improved swimming ability and body protection necessary for navigating open water and escaping predation. Likewise, nigorobuna crucian carp Carassius auratus ( grandoculis ) (L. 1758), a benthic cyprinid native to Lake Biwa, begins moving lakeward from the reed zone (spawning and nursery area) at L S > 16·0 mm (transition from larval to juvenile stage), having also acquired improved swimming ability (Fujiwara et al, , ).…”
