Effects of stocking density on survival, growth and production of Thai climbing perch (Anabas testudineus) under fed ponds (Kesan ketumpatan penstokan kepada kemandirian, pertumbuhan dan penghasilan ikan puyu Thailand (Anabas testudineus) di bawah kolam ternakan)

An experiment was carried out in 6 earthen ponds to investigate the effects of stocking density on growth, survival and production of Thai climbing perch (Anabas testudineus). Three stocking densities (treatments) were compared: ponds with 350, 400 and 550 individuals per decimal (0.01 acre). All tr...

Angling An experiment was carried out in 6 earthen ponds to investigate the effects of stocking density on growth, survival and production of Thai climbing perch (Anabas testudineus).
