- Abstract
The effect of salinity on food intake rate for young Bunni fishes (Barbus sharpeyi). Four concentration different of salinity had been used (1.5,3, 5,7) g/L. The average initial fish weight was (2.24±0.42)g. The fish reared in eight plastic containers of 15 L capacity, with 5 fishes in each. Four treatments (two replicates). The fishes were feed with artificial food (29.31% protein). The results showed that the best food intake rate per body weight was in concentration 5g/L (2.07%) and the lower in concentration 7g/L (1.64%). The best (GR), (RGR) and (SGR) for fishes in the concentration (5g/L) was the highest.
