TY - JOUR T1 - Egg and Larval Growth Performance of Brown Trout (Salmo trutta sp.) in Commercial Farm Conditions AU - Engin, Serhat AU - Altan, Özgür PY - 2022 DA - January DO - 10.26650/ASE20211048408 JF - Aquatic Sciences and Engineering JO - Aqua Sci Eng PB - Istanbul University WT - DergiPark SN - 2602-473X SP - 100 EP - 104 VL - 37 IS - 2 LA - en AB - The aim of this study is to determine the egg and larval growth performance of brown trout (Salmo trutta sp.) at a constant high water temperature under commercial farm conditions. Eggs were taken from 450 female broodstocks with an average weight of 5.09±0.29 kg. The eggs placed in the incu-bators were observed on the 14th day and kept at a constant temperature of 12.5°C. Then larvae began to hatch on the 29th day and all the eggs were fully hatched by the 31st day. The incubation period was determined as 350 days /°C. In the study, an average survival rate was determined as 21.07%±5.16% until the end of the larval stage. A significant relationship was found between the rate of eggs that hatched and the survival rate after the larval period had ended (p<0.05). After 120 days of larval feeding, larvae weighing 0.15 g reached 9.26±1.13 g. During this period, the feed conversion rate (FCR) and specific growth rate (SGR) values were determined as 1.21±0.09 and 1.23±0.72 respectively. KW - Salmo trutta sp.
