The effect of split rations on nursery production of Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man) under tank conditions

Abstract

Macrobrachium rosenbergii juveniles measuring 1.6 to 0.20 cm in total length and 0.04 - 0.01g in weight were reared in rectangular tanks at a stocking rate of 80 prawns/m2 to determine the effect of split rations on the growth and survival rate of this prawn. Split rations in this experiment means feeding frequency per day based on a daily food ration
