Current experiment was undertaken during 6 weeks with Nile tilapia, Oreochomis niloticus, fingerlings (1.28 ± 0.03 g) to assess the effects of moderate Na2CO3 liming on water quality and fish growth performance. Twenty-four 25 L-aquaria, with 15 fish per aquarium, were used, of which twelve aquaria were placed in the lab’s indoor room and twelve in the outdoor area. Two types of water (clear or green) and three different water-quality managements (none, HCl acidification and Na2CO3 liming) were simultaneously evaluated in a 3 x 2 factorial design. Total ammonia, calcium hardness, pH and total alkalinity in the green water aquaria were significantly higher than rates in the clear water aquaria. Slight liming acid water with Na2CO3 did not produce... |

Present study investigated the effects of different feeding schedules on certain variables of water quality and growth performance of Nile tilapia juveniles. Fifteen 25-L aquaria were used to hold the experimental fish population for six weeks. Five fingerlings (1.86 ± 0.13 g) were stocked in each aquarium (200 fish m-3; n = 5). The diet provided to fish and the feeding rates adopted were the same for all fish. The daily ration was divided in four meals (8, 11, 13 and 16h). In the positive control group (25/25/25/25), the daily ration was equally divided in the four meals; in the negative control group (40/30/20/10), the daily ration was unevenly divided in a progressively decreasing fashion (40, 30, 20 and 10%) throughout the day; in the experimental... |
