Effects of salinity on growth,haemolymph osmolality and total plasma proteins in the penaeid prawn, Penaeus monodon fabricius under tank conditions

Effects of salinity on growth, haemolymph osmolality and total plasma proteins of Penaeus monodon postlarvae (PL) was investigated at four salinities (5, 15, 25 and 35 ppt). After 10 weeks culture, shrimps at 15 ppt salinity showed the best growth rate of 2.2307 g/2 weeks followed by salinities of 2...
