Effects of day and night on swimming, grazing and social behaviours of rohu Labeo rohita (Hamilton) and common carp Cyprinus carpio (L.) in simulated ponds

Diel rhythmicity of grazing, swimming, resting and social interactions of rohu (Labeo rohita) (weight 66.5-68.3 g) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) (79.9^82.0 g) were observed in 1m2 simulated ponds using video images. Fish behaviour was monitored during a full 24-h period, starting at 08:00 hours...

Considering the grazing time of rohu and common carp, a feeding schedule with two feeding times at 07:30 and16:30 hours might be appropriate for better food intake and conversion in rohu-common carp polyculture system.
