Abstract

Ornamental fish production is significantly impacted by whether fish spawn naturally under controlled conditions. Therefore, goldfish (Carassius auratus) were allowed to breed naturally using various types of substrates to investigate their effects on ovulation, fertilization, and hatching rates in an experimental setup. The goldfish were subjected to five different substrate treatments: T1 (water hyacinth), T2 (jute rope), T3 (polythene), T4 (net), and T5 (no substrate). The optimal pH and dissolved oxygen levels for goldfish spawning were found to be 7.14 to 7.24 and 5.65 to 6.22 mg/L, respectively. Results indicated that the highest number of eggs (356.66±40) was observed in the polythene substrate (T3), while no eggs were found in the absence of substrate (T5). The polythene substrate also yielded the highest fertilization rate (93%) and hatching rate (95.01%). Notably, goldfish exhibited no spawning behavior without any substrate, suggesting that substrate may act as both a spawning substrate and an essential cue for ovulation in goldfish. Furthermore, the study's findings support the recommendation of goldfish as substrate breeders. This research offers valuable insights for small-scale fish farmers, entrepreneurs, and hatchery owners looking to enhance goldfish spawning techniques in aquarium settings.

Abstract

Süs balığı üretimi, balıkların kontrollü koşullar altında doğal olarak yumurtlayıp yumurtlamadıklarından önemli ölçüde etkilenir. Bu nedenle, Japon balıklarının (Carassius auratus) yumurtlama, döllenme ve yumurtadan çıkma oranları üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmak için çeşitli substrat türleri kullanılarak doğal yollarla üremelerine izin verilmiştir. Süs balığı üretimi, balıkların kontrollü koşullar altında doğal olarak yumurtlayıp yumurtlamadıklarından önemli ölçüde etkilenir. Bu nedenle, Japon balıklarının (Carassius auratus) yumurtlama, döllenme ve yumurtadan çıkma oranları üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmak için çeşitli substrat türleri kullanılarak doğal yollarla üremelerine izin verilmiştir. Sonuçlar, en yüksek yumurta sayısının (356,66±40) polietilen substratta (T3) gözlendiğini, substrat yokluğunda (T5) ise hiç yumurta bulunmadığını göstermiştir. Polietilen substrat aynı zamanda en yüksek döllenme oranını (%93) ve kuluçka oranını (%95,01) vermiştir. Özellikle, Japon balıkları herhangi bir substrat olmadan yumurtlama davranışı sergilememiştir, bu da substratın Japon balıklarında hem yumurtlama substratı hem de yumurtlama için önemli bir ipucu olarak işlev görebileceğini düşündürmektedir. Ayrıca, çalışmanın bulguları Japon balıklarının substrat yetiştiricileri olarak önerilmesini desteklemektedir. Bu araştırma, akvaryum ortamlarında Japon balığı yumurtlama tekniklerini geliştirmek isteyen küçük ölçekli balık yetiştiricileri, girişimciler ve kuluçkahane sahipleri için değerli bilgiler sunmaktadır.
