Effect of feeding frequency on food consumption and growth of goldfish (Carassius auratus) in man-made pond at Kb Ahmad Shah Nasarn District, Pishin, Balochistan
Abstract
The length-weight relationships associated with physico-chemical parameters are important in biological studies. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of natural and artificial feed on fish growth. Slightly Noticeable difference in the values of temperature, pH, transparency and DO were observed throughout the year and as per standards for aquatic biota. Goldfish (Carassius auratus) species was reared in aquarium from January 2018 to December 2018. Fish measurement was quarterly recorded from both natural pond and artificial Aquarium. Our result revealed that the (b) value for pond was 3.10 which are positive algometric, while value of (b) for aquarium was 2.9 which are negative algometric. Thus goldfish species grow much batter in natural pond than in an artificial environment.
