“…Similarly, Okamoto et al (2006) reported in mullet (Mugil cephalus) best growth and FCR performances at 30 °C. Meanwhile, Das et al (2005) recorded highest body weight gain, SGR and lowest FCR for rohu (Labeo rohita) at temperatures between 31 and 33 °C. A 2-wk study conducted by Sun & Chen (2009), assessing the effects of ration level and water temperature (21, 27 and 33 °C), on growth, fecal production and nitrogenous excretion of 10-g cobia (Rachycentron canadum), reported a positive increase in maximal, optimal, and maintenance ration, fecal production and nitrogenous excretion with increasing ration and temperatures (21 to 33°C).…”

WATER TEMPERATURE EFFECTS ON GROWTH, FEED UTILIZATION AND SURVIVAL OF BLACK PACU (Colossoma macropomum) FINGERLINGS

Ectothermic organisms normally live within a specific interval of thermal variation and life outside of that interval can be extremely difficult or lethal. Aquacultural use of black pacu Colossoma macropomum has expanded to diverse areas with various climatic conditions. In the past few years, practical aquafeeds have been evaluated striving to improve the performance of Amazonian fish, but there is little information regarding environmental effects on black pacu growth, feed intake and utilization. This lack of information, limits the ability to optimize the dietary intake and feed utilization, and makes it difficult to plan for future temperature changes. The goal of this study was to evaluate and compare black pacu fingerling growth, feed utilization and survival when reared at three water temperatures: 27.5, 30 and 32.5 ºC. Ninety fingerlings (1.38 ± 0.03 g mean total weight) were distributed in groups of 10 individuals and placed into nine 30-L volume fiberglass tanks. Fishes were submitted to a 7-day acclimation period before initiating the 21-day rearing trial. Fish reared at 30 ºC demonstrated significantly higher final body weight, body weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and protein efficiency ratio levels than fish reared at 27.5 and 32.5 ºC (P<0.05). No significant differences (P>0.05), were recorded for feed intake, protein intake, or condition factor. This study suggests temperature increase may impair the ability of black pacu to utilize feed and culturing at water temperatures above 30 ºC may be limiting for this fish.

“…In Bangladesh, fish seed production hatcheries are typically situated far away from fish rearing ponds. The traditional fish seed transportation methods result in heavy mortality due to accumulation of toxic wastes such as ammonia, decrease in pH due to increase of carbon dioxide (pCO 2 ), depletion of oxygen in the water, thermal tolerance [1], hyperactivity, stress and tiredness of the fry and infection contracted during transportation [2].…”

This investigation deals with the mortality rate of fish seeds (Labeo rohita) during traditional transportation system; to evaluate the effects of loading density with time scale under different water medium; temperature effect with relation to fry size and oxygen consumption; and the effect of saline water bath before transportation. Mortality rates were significantly increased with time scale and loading density under different water medium. Higher mortality was observed at 400 g L -1 loading density (river water 82%, pond water 70% and tubewell water 67.5%) than at 200 g L -1 and 300 g L -1 loading density after 24h. Oxygen consumption rate increased significantly with increasing temperature and decreased significantly with increasing fry body weight. Therefore, mortality rate could decrease (22%) if fish fry are bathed in saline water before journey and tubewell water can be use as a medium for long distance transportation.

“…Several workers have studied the quantitative relationship between body weight and oxygen uptake in carps (Singh, 1977;Roy and Munshi, 1984;Tabinda et al, 2003;Das et al, 2005;Aravindakshan et al, 2011). Divakaruni and Sharma (1990) studied oxygen consumption of fertilised eggs and early developmental stages of Labeo rohita and found that, after hatching, the rate of oxygen consumption increases with progression of development of larvae.…”

Das et al (2005) Analysed oxygen consumption rates in L. rohita fry (10 days old) under different temperature regimes. As per FAO (1985), fry and fingerlings have a higher metabolic rate, particularly fry stage.…”

Experiments were conducted under laboratory conditions for determination of oxygen consumption of advanced fry, fingerlings and advanced fingerlings of Indian major carps, catla Catla catla (Hamilton, 1822); rohu Labeo rohita (Hamilton, 1822); and mrigal Cirrhinus mrigala (Hamilton, 1822) in freshwater medium of total alkalinity varying between 150-154 mg l -1 , total hardness 130-140 mg l -1 , pH 7.5-8.0, carbon dioxide 5.6-12.0 mg l -1 and temperature 31-35 o C. Experiments were conducted in acrylic respirometers designed and developed for this purpose. The oxygen consumption values for advanced fry, fingerlings and advanced fingerlings of catla were 634±9, 565±27 and 516±28; rohu 549±26, 459±41 and 374±38 and mrigal 532±24, 449±28 and 343±30 mg kg body wt -1 h -1 respectively. In all stages, oxygen consumption values of catla varied significantly (p<0.05) from rohu and mrigal, whereas no significant differences were noticed between rohu and mrigal. Oxygen consumption was found to be more in all the three developmental stages of catla compared to corresponding stages of rohu and mrigal. In all the fishes, oxygen consumption was found to be higher in advanced fry stage than fingerling and advanced fingerling stages. The lower critical tolerance limits of oxygen in water for survival of advanced fingerlings of catla, rohu and mrigal were found to be 0.4, 0.32 and 0.32 mg l -1 respectively.
