| Abstract: Growth and survival of Pangasianodon hypophthalmus was assessed in relation to feeding of different feeds for a rearing period of 21 days. The experiment was designed with 3 treatments and 4 replications. The nursery ponds were stocked at a density of 0.6 million hatchling/ha with 3days old P. hypophthalmus. The highest growth performance, survival and production of the fry was found in treatment T1 in terms of length, weight and number, where sustainable nursery management was implemented and egg yolk, mustard oil cake, nursery feed and Tubifex Chop were supplied. Poor growth performance and survival was recorded in treatment T3, where nursery management was poor with insufficient food supply. The highest average growth was recorded at 5.66±0.55 g, SGR 12.24±0.68, FCR 0.68±0.01and survival rate 52.15±0.78% in the treatment T1. The treatment (T1) also showed highest economic return (Bd Tk. 290543/ ha) than that of treatment T1 and T2. The physico-chemical factors were found to be in optimum level for fish culture. |
