Microplastic pollution is becoming an increasingly severe environmental problem. As compared to the marine ecosystem, freshwater ecosystems at high-altitude, remote regions are less studied and lag far behind. Thus, the present study aims to highlight this issue and fill the gap in this regard.

Rainbow trout has a great nutritional value and delicious taste. A 90-days experimental trial was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary leaf extract of neem tree as a feeding supplement on the growth performance and proximate composition of . Four experimental diets were designed as T (with 5% leaf extract), T (with 7% of leaf extract), T (with 10% leaf extract), and T (control group feed with a regular diet with 0% leaf extract).

Article Synopsis
  • A 105-day trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of dietary Aloe vera extract on various factors related to Nile tilapia fry, including water quality, growth performance, and blood parameters.
  • The study included four treatment groups: a control group without Aloe vera (T0) and three groups with 1%, 2%, and 3% Aloe vera supplementation (T1, T2, T3), with fish reared in concrete tanks.
  • Results showed that T1 and T2 had significantly better growth metrics compared to control and T3, although T2 had the worst feed conversion ratio, indicating the potential benefits of Aloe vera for improving tilapia nutrition in Pakistan.

A 70-day rearing trial was done to determine the optimal frequency of feeding on growth performance (GP), feed conversion rate (FCR), cannibalism, survival rate (SR), body chemical composition and economic efficiency of the Asian sea bass. This study tested four different treatments of feeding frequencies (FF), once (T1), twice (T2), three times (T3), and four times (T4) per day. An average initial weight of Asian sea bass fry was 0.

One of the essential factors to be addressed in the development of aquaculture is the feeding regime. This study was investigated to assess the effects of feeding rate on growth performance, feed utilization, chemical body composition survival rate, cannibalism and morphological indices of Asian Seabass, . Intended for the trial, one hundred forty sea bass individuals with an average weight 5.
