Hight temperature stress
And low temperature stress also

Of course. Here is a shortened version of the key factors for selecting economically viable aquaculture species:
1. Can You Grow It?
· Fast growth & low FCR: Reaches market size quickly and uses feed efficiently.
· Hardy: Resists disease and tolerates variable water conditions.
· Available Seed: Reliable supply of juvenile fish (fingerlings).
2. Can You Sell It?
· Market Demand: Strong, consistent consumer demand.
· Production Cost: Sale price must be significantly higher than the cost of feed, fingerlings, and labor.
3. Is It Suitable for Your System?
· Fits Your Setup: Compatible with your ponds, cages, or tanks.
· Sustainable: Minimal environmental impact to ensure long-term operations.
In short: The best species is a hardy, fast-growing fish that you can produce cheaply for a market that wants to buy it.Of course. Here is a shortened version of the key factors for selecting economically viable aquaculture species:

Explain your question

Feed mills are important because they create consistent, high-quality, and safe animal feeds that are essential for animal health, growth, and production. They achieve this by processing raw ingredients into balanced rations, which improves feed efficiency and digestibility, reduces production costs, and ensures that animals receive the specific nutrients they need at every life stage. This process is vital for the profitability of modern agriculture, supporting the livestock, poultry, and aquaculture industries, and ensuring the safety of food derived from animals.

MemberOctober 18, 2025 at 12:10 am in reply to: Water Quality Management – Dissolved Oxygen (DO)I want to believe the activities of fish in water reduce the DO.
Also as fish eat there is an amount of DO used up in the process so this also reduces the level of DO.

Factors to consider are
1. Can the species adapt to the environment I want to culture them?
2. Availability of seed
3. Market demand in the environment
4. Growth rate and nutritional requirements

maintain equipment efficiency and prevent breakdowns, implement a strategy of preventive maintenance through scheduled cleaning, lubrication, and inspections, while also training operators on correct use and establishing procedures for reporting faults. Corrective maintenance is the reactive approach to fix problems as they occur, but proactive steps like using quality parts, maintaining detailed records, and implementing modern technologies like maintenance software are essential for long-term

Pls your message is not clear

High stocking density negatively impacts growth and feed conversion by increasing stress, which leads to a higher energy requirement for survival and a reduction in energy available for growth. This stress response can also disrupt nutrient digestion, immune function, and water quality, further hindering growth and leading to a worse feed conversion ratio (FCR
