Özet

In this study, for the first time, effects of live food on platy (Xiphophorus maculatus Günther, 1866), were investigated by using frozen white worm (Enchytraeus sp.). Aquarium fish used in this study were fry with an average weight of 0.177-0.180 ±0.005 g in different groups. In the experiment, 135 fry Xiphophorus maculatus were used. Fish weights were determined, and they later were put as 15 individual in aquariums in order to breed with three different experimental feed treatments (frozen white worm, frozen white worm combined with traditional aquarium fish feed and traditional aquarium fish feed). Water temperature was determined as 23.7 ±0.05 °C in during of experiment. The fish were fed with three diet to satiation twice daily (09:00, 15:00) in during two months. In the end of the experiment average final weight was determined 0.257 ±0.01 g, 0.258 ±0.01 g and 0.211 ±0.01 g, fed on with frozen white worm, frozen white worm combined with aquarium fish feed and aquarium fish feed groups, respectively and there were significant differences between T2 (frozen white worm+combined with aquarium traditional fish feed) and T3 (aquarium traditional fish feed) groups of average final weight (p˂0.05)
