Total length and alimentary canal length relationship
The alimentary canal length was larger than the total length. The average total length was 37.83±6.96
cm and the average alimentary canal length was 100.63±7.89 cm (Table-3). The ratio of total length
and alimentary canal length was 1: 2.66. Total length (TL) and alimentary canal length (ACL) of
Cyprinus carpio var. specularis were positively correlated (Table-4). The regression equation was
obtained as in total length and alimentary canal length, ACL = 19.709 + 2.1393 TL and the coefficient
of correlation, r = 0.853 (Fig. 2).
