An experiment was conducted for two months in a recirculatory system consisting 12 glass aquaria (size 41× 41 × 46 cm) to evaluate the effects of substrates on the growth and survival of Macribrachium rosenbergii postlarvae (PL). Treatment T1 having no substrate was considered as the control. Treatment T2 contained pieces of hollow PVC pipe, treatment T3 and T4 were provided with high density polyethylene (HDPE) and black nylon netting, respectively. Each treatment had three replicates. PL-15 of M. rosenbergii (mean initial length 1.20 ± 0.02 cm; mean initial weight 27 ± 0.02 mg) were stocked at the rate of 75 PLs (1.25 PL L-1) in each aquarium. At the beginning PLs were fed three times daily at the rate of 20% of their body weight which was reduced to 10% at the start of 2nd month. The ranges of water quality parameters recorded in different treatments were: temperature 26 - 29°C; dissolved oxygen 6.2 - 8.1 mg L-1; pH 6.8 - 8.1 and total ammonia 0.01 - 0.15 mg L-1. The result of the study showed that there was no significant difference (P>0.05) in final length of PLs between treatments T3 (HDPE netting) and T4 (nylon netting) but these values were significantly higher than those in T1 (control). There was no significant difference (P>0.05) in final weight and specific growth rates (SGR) of PLs in treatments T3 and T4 but these values were significantly higher than those in T2 (PVC pipe) and T1 (control). Final weights of PLs were 32.70%, 31.54% and 21.05% higher in treatments T3, T4 and T2 respectively than T1 (without substrate). The FCR values ranged between 1.85 and 1.88. There was no significant difference (P>0.05) between the survival of PLs which ranged between 80.33 and 83.00%. Result of the study indicated that growth of M. rosenbergii PLs improved in presence of artificial substrates but the artificial substrates did not improved survival. HDPE and nylon netting gave the best results compared to PVC pipes and control treatments in terms of growth and feed efficiency. Therefore, use of HDPE or nylon netting may be recommended as substrate for successful nursing of M. rosenbergii PLs. However, further studies using different substrates should be carried out in nursery ponds to ascertain the usefulness of these substrates for nursing of M. rosenbergii PLs.

An experiment was conducted for six months to evaluate the effects of artificial substrates on the survival, growth and production of Macrobrachium rosenbergii juveniles. The treatment T1 contained locally available bamboo-made substrate both vertical and horizontal and treatment T2 received no substrate. Juvenile prawns (0.40±0.13 g) were stocked at the rate of 19,760 prawns ha-1. The water quality parameters range such as temperature, pH and DO were 22.06-33.45°C, 7.70-8.40 and 4.75-6.15 mgl-1 respectively which was no significant difference (P<0.05) between two treatments. The final weight was 56.48±6.56 g and 45.03±2.11 g in T1 and T2 respectively. The survival rate of T1 was 63.12% which was significantly higher (P>0.05) than T2 (56.87%). The specific growth rate, food conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio were 1.19 % and  1.14 %, 3.15 and 4.39, 0.98 and 0.71 in T1 and T2 respectively which were not significantly different (P<0.05) between treatments. The total production and net profit in T1 was 1408 kgha-1 and BDT 117,325 ha-1 which was significantly higher (P>0.05) than T2. Thus growth and survival of prawn juveniles improved in presence of artificial substrate which could be economically viable technique for the freshwater prawn culture.

A six month’s experiment was carried out in earthen ponds to evaluate the effect of micro and macro nutrients on the growth performance of Prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii), Rohu (Labeo rohita) and Mola (Amblypharyngodon mola) in a polyculture system during July to December 2017. The trial was conducted into two different treatments and one control each with three replications. In treatment-1, macronutrients enrich fertilizers like urea, TSP and molasses-yeast mixture were applied at the rate of 2.45, 2.45, and 3.09 (g m-2 week-1), whereas in treatment-2 micronutrients composition mixer applied at the rate of 4.50 g m-2 week-1 while no micro and macronutrients were applied in control. The mean value of all water quality parameters showed no significant differences among control and two treatments when One-way ANOVA was performed except hardness. The average final mean individual weights of prawn, rohu and mola in control, treatment-1 and treatment-2 were 22.10, 24.35, and 24.70 g; 141.10, 190.60 and 182.20 g; 3.36, 3.67 and 3.73 g, respectively. The survival rates of various species namely prawn, rohu and mola in control, treatment-1 and treatment-2 were 73.33, 89.58 and 86.25%; 78.00, 74.00 and 74.00%; 10.67, 15.33 and 15.33%, respectively. There was no significant difference in the survival rates of prawn, rohu and mola among control and treatments. Production after six months of culture was 351.8, 461.5 and 445.3 kg ha-1 in control, treatment-1 and treatment-2, respectively which were significantly different at 5% level of significance. Int. J.

An experiment of 65 days duration was conducted to study the effect of biofilm formed on different natural substrates at different substratum densities on the growth and survival of juveniles of freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879). Natural substrates like dried paddy straw and cut grass were evaluated as substratum for biofilm production. The experiment was conducted in fiber glass tanks of 500 l capacity. The study comprised six treatments viz., dried paddy straw at 60 (T1); 120 (T2) and 240 (T3) g tank-1 and cut grass at 60 (T4) and 120 (T5) g tank-1, each with three replicates following a completely randomised design. Prawn juveniles reared without any substratum acted as control. Ten days after the introduction of substratum in the tanks, prawn juveniles (2.01 g±0.37) were stocked at a density of 40 m-³. The juveniles were fed with 2 mm commercial pellet feed (30% protein) at 5% of the biomass. No water exchange was done in the treatment tanks whereas in control tanks 50% water exchange was done once every week. The study revealed significantly (p<0.05) higher survival rate (%) in the treatment tanks (94.4±9.6, 80.5±12.7, 86.1±12.7, 86.1±4.8 and 91.6±8.35 for treatments T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively) compared to the control (52.8±9.5). Among treatment tanks, T2 and T3 showed significantly higher (p<0.05) average daily growth (g d-1) (0.055±0.005 and 0.057±0.005 respectively) when compared to other treatments (0.0367±0.02 for T1 and 0.0373±0.01 for T5). But the specific growth rate did not show any significant difference among the treated groups including control. Use of biofilm significantly reduced the usage of water (by 2.9 times) compared to control, which is significant considering the predicted water scarcity in future.

Effect of artificial substrates on growth and survival of giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879)in the nursery and grow-out rearing was evaluated. Nursery rearing was conducted for a period of 35 days in nine 1 m3cement tubs with 15 cm soil base. Three tubs without substrates served as control (C) while three tubs each with 200 g ofsugarcane bagasse (SB) or 200 g of paddy straw (PS) formed the treatments. Each tub was stocked with 15 post-larvae(mean weight, 0.01 g). Grow-out rearing was conducted for 90 days in six 25 m2 cement cisterns, of which three cisternswithout substrate served as control (C) and three with 5 kg sugarcane bagasse (SB) served as treatment. Each cistern wasstocked with 25 juveniles (mean weight, 0.55 g). The average phytoplankton and zooplankton abundance in water as wellas algae and food organisms attached on the substrate in the nursery phase was greater in bagasse than in paddy strawtreatments. Addition of substrate resulted in higher growth and survival both in nursery and grow-out phase. Prawns grownin cisterns provided with substrates were of more uniform size than those in control cisterns. The study recommends the useof substrate based aquaculture for nursery and grow-out rearing of M. rosenbergii.

Abstract This experimental investigation of a laboratory scale aquaponic system included testing of a biofilter with basil plant as the biofilter part on aquaculture water quality. Irridescent shark was selected as aquaculture species. The biofilter consist of natural biomaterials such as coconut husk, coco peat, and coarse aggregates. The experiment was carried out for three short water recirculation durations of 2, 3, and 4 h/day. The influent and effluent ammonia NH3, total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), nitrites NO2 and nitrates NO3 levels were measured and analysed. The results showed that the biofilter effectively removed NH3 (65 - 71 %), TAN (34 - 58 %), and NO2 (60 - 67 %) from the aquaculture water. The dissolved oxygen (DO) levels were maintained between 3 - 7.0 mg/l during all the recirculation durations. The significance of water recirculation period was assessed by calculating the differences between the means of water quality parameters with a statistical test named one-way analysis of variance (ANNOVA) with significant level P taken as 5 %, i.e., P ≤ 0.5. The effluent mean NH3 levels 0.030 mg/l, 0.033 mg/l, and 0.022 mg/l exhibited significant difference at 4 h/d periods while effluent TAN levels 0.81, 0.77, and 0.77 showed no difference with varying periods.

With a view to evaluate the compensatory growth response, production and survival of prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) and catla (Catla catla) under polyculture system, an experiment was conducted at the Faculty of Fisheries Field Laboratory in Bangladesh Agricultural University campus from 20 March 2006 to 20 June 2006. The experiment was consisted of three treatments with three replications for each. The three treatments were: fed to satiation twice a day (T1), fed every alternate day (T2) and fed every two days of interval (T3). SABINCO prawn feed was used as supplementary diet for the experiment. The stocking densities for prawn and catla were 40/dec. and12/dec., respectively. The initial weights at stocking were: 50 g for catla in all the treatments, and 5.8, 6.4 and 6.2 g for prawn in T1, T2 and T3, respectively. The water quality parameters were almost similar in all treatments and also were within an acceptable range of fish culture. The survival rate for catla was 100.0% in T1, 91.6% in T2 and 83.3 % in T3, while for prawn was 85.0% in T1, 71.0% in T2 and 69.0% in T3, respectively. The average weight of prawn was much lower in T3 and T2 than those in T1. The best FCR value was found in T2 (1.80) followed by T3 (1.85) and T1 (1.98) in this order. The average highest gross yield was obtained from T1 (1656kg/ha) followed by T2 (1077kg/ha) and T3 (1127kg/ha), while the production of prawn was T1 (791kg/ha), T2 (517kg/ha) and T3 (429kg/ha), respectively. However, no significant differences were found in the total yield in T2 and T3. The total costs of production for the three treatments were: T1 (125.93Tk/kg), T2 (143.21Tk/kg) and T3 (146.71Tk/kg), while the profits were: T1 (104.07Tk/kg), T2 (55.86Tk/kg) and T3 (24.60Tk/kg) in which the benefit cost ratio were found to be 1:0.83, 1:0.39 and 1:0.17, respectively. The results indicate that every day feeding had provided good growth and economic returns and thus seemed to be most practicable and viable feeding options for prawn-fish polyculture. Therefore, prawn-fish polyculture with regular feeding provides satisfactory growth and production.

An experiment was conducted to compare the performance between traditional farming and organic farming of freshwater prawn in respect of production and economics. The experiment had two treatments, namely: Traditional (TT) and Organic (TO) with same stocking density (20000 juvenile’s ha-1) in triplicate. In treatment TO, formulated feed with locally available ingredients were used, and maize flour and bamboo branches were provided for maintaining C:N ratio to 20 and for developing periphyton, respectively. In treatment TT, only commercially available prawn feed was applied. No fertilizers or other types of chemicals or antibiotics were used in both treatments. There were no significant differences (P?0.05) of different water quality parameters between both treatments. Weight gain and specific growth rate (% body weight day-1) of prawn was significantly higher (P<0.05) in TO than TT treatment. Survival rate and feed conversion ratio of prawn did not vary significantly between both treatments. Highest total yield was obtained from TO treatment (511.41 kg ha-1 90 d-1) compared to TT treatment (426.57 kg ha-1 90 d-1). Net yield was also significantly higher in treatment TO (428.32 kg ha-1 90 d-1) than TT (347.77 kg ha-1 90-1). Although there was no significant difference in benefit-cost ratio between both treatments, totalreturn was significantly higher in TO than TT treatment.J. Environ.
