Effect of photoperiod manipulation on the growth performance of juvenile leno…

The effect of four different light regimes on growth was studied in lenok, Brachymystax lenok. Fish with average weights of 5.5 g were subjected to four different photoperiods (0L:24D, 6L:18D, 12L:12D and 24L:0D) for 35 days. The specific growth rate (SGR) of lenok in 24-h darkness had a significantly higher SGR than those in the continuous light regime (P < 0.05); however, there was no signifi…
