Abstract:
The main objectives of this study are to determine the food preferences, diet
overlapping and trophic levels of cyprinid fishes. Seven species which are
Crossocheilus oblongus, Garra cambodgiensis, Neolissocheilus soroides,
Poropuntius smedleyi, Osteocheilus enneaporos, Rasbora argyrotaenia and Rasbora
notura were captured using generator-powered electrofisher with two copper
electrodes on wooden handles that generate by 250-300 W of direct current (DC) and
the gut contents were analyzed. The abundance and present of each food item were
represented by frequency of occurrence and relative abundance.
