Abstract

Cage culture practice is an important technology for culture of finfish and non fin fish organisms. It is gaining importance day by day. This was a first attempt to check the suitability of cage culture in back water of Godavari. This water remains present up to March and April; hence this experiment was carried out from October 2012 to April 2013 (180 days) at Dhangar Takli on the bank of river Godavari. Results showed that Oreochromis mossambicus fish was useful fish for cage culture practice in this area. Although, the Monosex culture of Oreochromis mossambicus may be more applicable because this fish is prolific breeder. If we alter the breeding of fish then this will may help to increase the growth of the fish. Oreochromis mossambicus commonly called as freshwater pomfret. People of this area consume this fish is in high quantity; hence for high production this cage culture method may be helpful.
