Initial average weight of fry was 0.18 g. This trial consisted of sixth treatments, the first treatment (T1) fish fed on artificial feed only, the (T2) fish fed of half feeding rate on artificial feed and other fresh Ulva , the (T3) fish fed of half feeding rate on artificial feed and other fresh Enteromorph, the (T4) fish fed on fresh Ulva only, the (T5) fish fed on fresh Enteromorpha only and the (T6) fish fed of half feeding rate on fresh Ulva and other fresh Enteromorph. Feeding rat was 7% of biomass and this trial co.. View More»
