The GSI of stunted fish showed a decreasing
trend with the increased feeding rate. Both the broodstock groups fed at 1% biomass grew linearly whereas at 2 and 3%, they grew
exponentially. As compared to the normal, stunted broodfish had significantly (Pb0.05) higher fat content in viscera although
similar levels were in carcass and ovary. Carcass fat content was significantly (Pb0.05) lower in fish fed at 1% biomass but
significantly (Pb0.05) higher in the ovary and viscera of fish fed at 3% biomass.
