An experiment was conducted to determine the growth performance of two Indian Major Carps Catla catla, and Cirrhinus mrigala fingerlings for period of 40 days. Nine experimental groups fed commercial pellet diet incorporated with three types of nutritional supplements (Gram positive lactobacil probiotic, Parry’s Spirulina and Vitamin C – Ascorbic acid) at different concentrations (2 %, 4 %, & 8...

The Caspian frisian roach (Rutilus frisii kutum), economically a very important fish species in Iran, is propagated in fishponds, reared into the rivers in fingerling size and then harvested from the Caspian Sea in adult stage. We found six monogenean parasites on the Caspian frisian roach including five Dactylogyrus spp. on fingerlings cultured in fishponds and rivers and two Dactylogyrus spp....

CIRKOVIC, M., N. MILOSEVIC, M. MARKOVIC and A. POTKONJAK, 2010. Brain myxoboliasis of common carp. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 16: 263-265 The common carp (Cyprinus carpio) originating from Serbian fish ponds was examined for presence of Myxobolus encephalicus. The spores of M. encephalicus were present in blood vessels and meningeal layers. Its presence has been noted in 32-days old carp fingerlings...

After 50 days of pond culture fewer pike fingerlings (20 to 33 p. 100) were recovered from the mixing of two full-sib families than from isolated families. Growth and survival were influenced by the family effect. Environmental parameters, such as depth and extent of the banks, may also affect growth and survival. Our results indicated that isolating full-sib families and using small, shallow p...

The effect of dietary supplementation of commercial probiotics Bifilac® on growth of rohu, Labeo rohita fingerlings were evaluated. Experimental diet (ED) was supplemented with Bifilac® (3g/kg diet). Reference diet (RD) was not supplemented with Bifilac®. The feeding trial was conducted using L. rohita fingerlings (5.30±0.01 g) for 60 days in triplicates. The groups D1 and D2 were fed daily wit...
