| Abstract/Description: | A 45 days experiment was conducted to assess the growth, survival and cannibalism at different feeding rate in striped snakehead, Channa striata (Bloch, 1793) fingerlings. In this experiment, four hundred fifty striped murrel fingerlings of average weight 1.41±0.12g were randomly distributed in 15 tanks of 250 L water capacity. Fishes were fed pelleted diet having 44.1% protein with different feeding rate 2% (T1), 4% (T2), 6% (T3), 8% (T4) and 10% (T5) of fish biomass. The weight gain, percentage weigh gain and specific growth rate was significantly higher (p<0.05) in T3 and T4 in comparison to T1and T2 groups. The cannibalism rate was significantly higher (p<0.05) in T1 (2%) group in comparison to T3, T4 and T5. Cannibalism rate was gradually reduced with increase in feeding rate and significantly higher cannibalism (12.22±1.94) was observed at 2% of feeding rate (T1) in comparison to the other treatment groups. The hepatosomatic index (HSI) and viscerosomatic index (VSI) was significantly higher in T5 group in comparison to other treatment groups. This study indicated that feeding rate at 6% of biomass of striped snakehead fingerlings is optimum for better growth and survival and to minimize the cannibalism |
