| Abstract/Description: | The growth and survival of climbing perch, Anabas testudineus in a newly developed Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) aquaponics system was studied for 6 weeks. The Initial length and weight of A. testudineus were 5.60±0.57 cm and 3.2±0.63 g, respectively. The Basella alba were planted in the grow pipe of NFT aquaponics system. The Initial height and weight of B. alba were 10.80±1.10 cm and 9.17±1.60 g, respectively. Results revealed that there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the plant growth parameters in the NFT grow pipes at the end of the 6-week experimental duration. The final average length and weight of A. testudineus were 9.02±0.54 cm and 14.36±2.01 g in the treatment tank and the same were 8.19±0.59 cm and 10.69±1.80 g in control tank. The survival of fish was higher (91%) in the aquaponic system compared to control (89%). RBC and haemoglobin content in blood were higher in fish reared in aquaponic system whereas fishes in control group, showed increased WBC, total plasma protein and glucose level due to the adverse environmental condition in the control. There was 34% higher growth in fishes in aquaponic tank compared to control. The Daily Weight Gain (DWG), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), and survival of fish grown in the aquaponic system were better than that of fishes in control tank. |
