Abstract | Growth in Fishes in aquaculture is a complex process by which ingested energy is converted to biomass. The efficiency of this conversion is regulated by the growth potential of the organism, its trophic status, and various abiotic factors such as food supply, temperature, and adverse environmental factors brought about by the conditions in which the fish are cultured. |
