“…Light intensity and photoperiod are also important factors in fish production as their manipulation can optimize the production of a species, as the behavior of fish can be positively affected by variations in light intensity, wavelength and daily or seasonal photoperiod (Boeuf & Le Baile, 1999;Puvanendran & Brown, 2002). Most fish require a minimum level of light intensity, which allows visualization of the food, increases food intake and improves feed conversion leading to nutrients assimilation, it generates a faster and greater growth, improves the immune system, increases the enzyme activity and the accumulation of crude protein and lipids (Trippel & Neil, 2003;Monk et al, 2006;Sheng et al 2006;Ashley, 2007;Karakatsaouli et al, 2010;Stuart & Drawbridge, 2011;Honryo et al, 2013;Wang et al, 2015), while an inadequate light intensity can be stressful to fish and even lead to mortalities (Boeuf & Le Baile, 1999). The finding of a suitable photoperiod for a particular species, can reduce social stress and increases: food intake, nutrient assimilation and specific growth rate (Fielder et al, 2002;Trippel & Neil, 2002;Howell et al, 2003;Imsland et al, 2006;Ballagh et al, 2008;Martínez-Cárdenas & Purser, 2011;Gunnarsson et al, 2012;Prayogo et al, 2012).…”
