Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of different water temperature on growth performance, of Labeo rohita. Water temperature is the most important factor for the fish growth and it affects all metabolic and physiological activities of fish and plankton. Water temperature plays an important role in influencing the periodicity, occurrence and abundance of phytoplankton as it had a direct relationship with total plankton (Mohapatra et al., 2002). Generally in low temperature, fish growth hampers due to less metabolic activities. Therefore, water temperature is a driving force in the fish life because its effects are more than any other single factor. Growth and livability in fish are optimum within a defined temperature range (Gadowaski and Caddell, 1991). During winter, temperature falls, thus influencing biological functions in fish. Labeo rohita is an important freshwater fish cultured in India, Therefore, growth rate of this fish and other cultured freshwater carps decreased during the low water temperature period. Therefore, to investigate the effect of different temperature ranges on the growth performance of Labeo rohita.
Keywords- Water temperature, growth, Labeo rohita, physiological, biological.
