Abstract

This pioneering study conducted by the Department of Aquaculture aimed to assess the suitability of Cirrhinus Mrigala, a freshwater species, for cultivation in a Sintex tank. The objective was to determine the growth potential and productivity of Cirrhinus Mrigala in this specific tank culture system. Over a period of 60 days, the final weights of the fish specimens were recorded as follows: 2.0g, 4.30g, 6.96g, 9.98g, 11.21g, and 14.17g, respectively. The total fish yield achieved during this period was 437.58 grams, utilizing a natural feeding regime. This study provides valuable insights as the first investigation in this domain, revealing promising indications for the implementation of Sintex tank culture for Cirrhinus Mrigala cultivation.
