Title Surfacing activity and food utllization in a tropical air-breathing fish exposed to different temperatures
 
Creator Vivekanandan, E

Subject Fishery biology
Food and Feeding
 
Description In tropical countries like India, \vhere availability of
freshwater is limited , air-breathing fishes may be chosen
for aquaculture, as they thrive in shallow waters deficient
in oxygen. However, the advantageous air-breathing
habit of these fishes and the consequent need to surface
more or less at regular intervals may impose a considerable
drain of energy, which otherwise could have been
channelled into fish production
