| Abstract/Description: | In the present study, growth, survival rate and production of Systomus sarana, Mystus vittatus and Macrobrachium rosenbergii were examined under freshwater pond condition in bamboo-net cage for a period of 150 days. Six numbers of cages (2 × 1.5 × 1 m of each cage)were installed in the pond with help of bamboo poles at Faculty of Fishery Sciences campus in Kolkata, West Bengal, India. The cages stocked with fingerlings of S. sarana (1.79±0.24 cm), M. vittatus (4.72±0.49 cm)and post-larvae of M. rosenbergii (5.64±0.54 cm) and uniform stocking density maintained @ 50 no m-2throughout the experimental periods with one replicate cage for each species and the experiment designated as C1, C2 and C3 respectively. Pelleted feed were fedtwice a day @ 10% of the body weight for initial 15 days; thereafter @ 5% of the body weight rest of the experiment.The water quality parameters were found suitable range for fish culture in all the cages. S. sarana showed significantly (p<0.05) higher specific growth rate in terms of weight than M. vittatus and M. rosenbergii. But average growth rate of M. rosenbergii was significantly (p<0.05) higher than that of S. sarana and M. vittatus. The maximum survival percentage was recorded in M. vittatus (93.0±3.0%) followed by P. sarana (88.0±3.0%) and M. rosenbergii (85.0±7.0%). The production per unit area of the cages was maximum in M. rosenbergii (1.90±0.16 kg m-2) followed by M. vittatus(0.75±0.01 kg m-2) and S. sarana (0.73±0.02 kg m-2). M. rosenbergii showed highest benefit cost ratio (2.01) followed by S. sarana (1.28) and M. vittatus (1.23). |
