Effects of water depth on growth performance of Indian major carps at a poly culture system in Bangladesh

Abstract

The main aim of this study was to assess the effect of water depth on the growth performance (length and weight) of table size Indian major carp (Gibelion catla, Labeo rohita, and Cirrhinus mrigala) fi shes. Fishes were recorded under different depth (1.20 m, 1.80 m and 2.80 m) for about eight months from February 2016 to September 2016. Water depth was considered as treatment 1 (T1) for 1.20 m, treatment 2 (T2) for 1.80 m and treatment 3 (T3) for 2.80 m, respectively.
