THE USE OF RIVER HOPPER BARGES AS FACILITIES FOR AQUACULTURE: THE GROWTH CHARACTERISTICS OF CARP (Cyprinus carpio) DEPENDING ON STOCKING DENSITY

Carps (Cyprinus carpio) were farmed on a river hopper barge attwo stocking densities, 10 and 20 individuals per m3. A comparison of averageweights, specific growth rates and weight distributions was performed. Theobtained results show that there was no statistically significant difference in any ofthe parameters studied with regard to stocking density
