Effect of clay turbidity on the growth performance of Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man, 1879)

The study was conducted to find out the effect of different clay turbidities on the growth performance of Macrobrachium rosenbergii post-larvae. The study was completed in 3 weeks. The different clay turbidities used were 0 (control), 200 (T1), 400 (T2) and 800 mg/L (T3). A total of 120 post-larvae...

Up to a maximum threshold level where growth would begin to be affected, turbidity could help to improve post-larvae survival since it could potentially reduce cannibalism.
