Feeding metabolism in an Indian major carp, Catla catla fingerlings of 10.8+0.56g was investigated in a flow-through water recirculating system. The metabolic energy loss in resting metabolism and feeding metabolism were determined by the indirect method of oxygen consumption followed by multiplication by suitable oxycalorific coefficient. This was done in four metabolic chambers of a respirome...

A study was conducted to determine the growth performance and bioaccumulation and tolerance of metal mixture toxins in five fish species including Labeo rohita, Catla catla, Cirrhina mrigala, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and Ctenopharyngodon idella separately, under chronic exposure of metal mixture (Fe + Zn + Pb) at sub-lethal concentrations (1/3 of LC50) for 12 weeks period. Moreover, response...
