Increased growth rate in Atlantic salmon parr by using a two-colour diet
Original version
This report is not to be cited without prior reference to the authorsAbstract
Fishes hunting by sight are known to pay a cost of confusion
when faced with high densities of uniform food particles. In
such instances, awareness of other stimuli reduces feeding efficiency
such that the fishes prefer low densities of food particles.
Farmed Atlantic salmon parr (Salmo scalar) with agonistic
behaviour, have the additional pressure of conspecific aggression
while feeding.
