Present study was carried out to evaluate the growth performance of polyculture Heteropneustes fossilis in different stocking density in seasonal ponds of greater Northern region, Bangladesh for a period of 150 days from 30 March 2016 to 30 August 2016. Nine uniform earthen ponds (10decimal) were divided in to three treatments. Three stocking densities of H. fossilis such as 1,23,550 (T1), 148260 (T2) and 172970 ha-1 (T3) were tested with three replications each with C. batratus, O. niloticus and B. gonionotus commercial pelleted fish feed containing 30% crude protein were supplied 8-6% of the body weight of H. fossilis. Sampling of the experimental fishes along with the monitoring of the water quality parameters were measured on fortnightly basis. Over the study period, all the recorded water quality parameters were founded within the acceptable range suitable for fish culture. At the end of the culture period harvested weight of H. fossilis were found 65.11± 1.11, 58.0±2.00 and 48.0±0.58 g where T1 permit significantly (P<0.05) better growth performance followed by T2 and T3 Significantly (P<0.05) with better nutrient utilizations FCR in T1 (2.63) followed by T2 (2.84) and T3 (3.08). Significantly higher survival (%) of the fishes were recorded in T1 (77.93±1.63) followed by the T2 (76.12±0.62) and T3 (72.71±0.14). Considering the survival highest gross production (kg ha-1) in T2 (7793.82) followed by T1 (7593.39± 235.3) and T3 (6981.91±62.2). However, BCR in (T1)1.6933 was found to be more efficient and profitable followed by (T2) 1.4923 and (T3)1.3207). Based on the present findings, polyculture H. fossilis might be suggested to the fish farmer as a potential adaption option to utilize the seasonal water bodies. The polyculture technology of shingi may also help to meet the dietary needs and improve the socioeconomic status of the people of Bangladesh
Aquaculture of stinging catfish is not well developed in the southern coastal region of Bangladesh because of the crevices problem and lack of suitable culture techniques. A study was conducted using bamboo splits made mats and small mesh sized net as fence to develop culture technique for a period of 167 days. Similar sized fingerlings (average weight 5.75 g) were stocked at a density of 600, 800 and 1,000 fish•40 m-2. Commercial feed was applied once a day at 17.00 to 18.00 pm. The survival varied from 68.64±5.52 to 82.89±4.42%, and the significantly highest survival was found in T600. The highest production was found in T1000 followed by T800 and T600 those were not significantly difference among the treatments. The calculation of economic efficiency showed the highest input cost in T1000, but the highest economic efficiency was found in T600 and lowest in T1000. The findings indicate that the stocking density in T600 was appropriate and encouraged to develop stinging catfish culture in the southern coastal wetlands to solve the crevices problem. Adopting this technology, local people may enhance their livelihood and increase the national fish production as well as the economy of the country.

The present study was conducted in Jhikargacha sub-district of Jessore district with the view to evaluating status of polyculture of Pangasius hypophthalmus with carps from July to December 2012. The mean age and experience of the respondents was 41.28±12.19 and 9.48±3.12 years respectively. Culture pond size was 0.41±0.21 ha (0.343 to 0.478 at 95% CL). 67.50% culture ponds were leased ponds and mean yearly lease value was 535364.70±468224.20 BDT/ha. All the ponds were rectangular in shape and perennial in nature. During preparation of pond, all the ponds were dried by draining out the water. Liming was done at 229.30±118.70 kg/ha (pre-stocking) and 250 kg/ha (post-stocking). Application rate of various fertilizers during post stocking management were recorded as- 155.12±79.10 kg/ha (cow dung); 158.27±79.85 kg/ha (urea); and 79.90±42.93 kg/ha (TSP). Five species of fishes were found to be stocked at the rate of 7377 individuals/ha including 93.10% P. hypophthalmus seeds and 6.90% other carps. Supplementary feeding was done daily and the application rates were 444.23±236.41 kg/ha (rice bran), 228.29±116.96 kg/ha (mustard oil cake), and 912.91±468.05 kg/ha (commercial pangus feeds, pellet). Average fish production was found 6672.84 kg/ha. All the fishes grown in the study area were marketed to fish landing centers and markets of three districts- Chuadanga (47.50%), Dhaka (30%) and Jessore (22.50%). The average cost-benefit ratio was 1:1.15. High mortality, low growth of seeds, and high input price were the major problems.

The present study was undertaken with a view to finding out the carps poly-culture technique, pond management and cost analysis in Mohanpur, Rajshahi region of Bangladesh. The study was conducted for a period of four months (October 2010 to February 2011). It provides an overview on the guiding principles, aspects and tasks, and presents the applicable production techniques and patterns of carp polyculture. It is expected that this publication will help identify resources and contribute to the successful planning and realization of fish production by those fish pond owners and operators who need to strengthen and improve their knowledge on the subject. 1. Introduction The polyculture of major and exotic carps and monoculture of catfish (P. sutchi), Telapia are the most widely practiced culture system in Bangladesh. Three Indian major carps namely, Labeo rohita, Catla catla and Cirrhinus mrigala and one exotic carp, Hypopthalmichthys molitrix now account for more than 78% of total pond production (ICLARM, 2002). The concept of polyculture of fish is based on the concept of total utilization of different trophic and spatial niches of a pond in order to obtain maximum fish production per unit area. Different compatible species of fish of different trophic and spatial niches are raised together in the same pond to utilize all sorts of natural food available in the pond. The possibilities of increasing fish production per unit area, through polyculture, is considerable, when compared with monoculture system of fish. Different species combination in polyculture system effectively contribute also to improve the pond environment. Algal blooming is common in most tropical manure fed ponds. By stocking phytoplanktophagus Silver carp in appropriate density certain algal blooming can be controlled. Grass carp on the other hand keeps the macrophyte abundance under control due to its macrovegetation feeding habit and it adds increased amount of partially digested excreta which becomes the feed for the bottom dweller coprofagous common carp. The bottom dwelling mrigal, common/mirror carp help re-suspension of bottom nutrients to water while stirring the bottom mud in search of food. Such an exercise of bottom dwellers also aerates the bottom sediment. All these facts suggest that polyculture is the most suitable proposition for fish culture in undrainable tropical ponds. Actually the development of aquaculture production technology is a continuous process. System approach should be addressed in education and research process so that we can find the need or problem of rural farmers and thereby suggest for appropriate aquaculture technology.

Effect of different amounts of feeds on growth and production of fishes in pond polycultureAn experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of different amounts of supplementary feeds on growth and production of fishes in polyculture where four different species such as rui (Labeo rohita), mrigal (Cirrhinus mrigala), common carp (Cyprinus carpio) and tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were cultured in 6 ponds under three treatments, each with two replications. Eighty fish per decimal were stocked along with the stocking ratio of 1:1:1:1 in all the treatments. Supplementary feeds of rice bran and wheat bran (1:1), at the amount of 5% of body weight were applied in 2 ponds (treatment I) as well as at the amount of 3% of body weight were used in 2 ponds (treatment II) and 2 ponds (treatment III) were as control where no supplementary feed was used. Urea and T.S.P were applied fortnightly at the rate of 60 g decimal-1 and 90 g decimal-1 , respectively under all treatments. Physico-chemical and biological factors such as air and water temperature, transparency, rainfall, pH, dissolved oxygen, free CO2, total alkalinity, PO4-P and NO3-N, phytoplankton and zooplankton were studied fortnightly and the limnological conditions were more or less similar in the experimental ponds under three treatments. The calculated gross and net fish productions of fishes under treatment I, treatment II and treatment III were 8.87 and 7.33 ton ha-1 yr-1 , 7.12 and 5.58 ton ha-1 yr-1 and 4.69 and 3.16 ton ha-1 yr-1 , respectively. Percent increased of net fish productions of treatment I and treatment II were 231.97% and 176.59% higher than that of treatment III (control). The present study reveals that supplementary feeding in fish culture should be done along with fertilization because supplementary feeds are very important to enhance growth of fishes significantly.
