unknown. In India, ornamental fish breeding and culturewithout aeration in rural areas is common. Anexperiment was conducted for 45 days to standardisethe stocking density of koi carp spawn rearing (4day old, length 7.58 ± 0.10 mm, weight 4.56 ± 0.98mg) in ferrocement tanks (300 l) without providingaeration. These spawn were fed with mixedzooplankton ad libitum. There were three treatmentswith different stocking densities viz., 2 number l-1(T1), 4 number l-1 (T2) and 6 number l-1 (T3)respectively. In present study, significantly higher(p<0.05) growth and survival rate was found in T1compare to other treatments. There was no significantdifference (p>0.05) in water quality parametersin different treatments. The results of present studyconcludes that stocking density of koi carp 2 numberl-1 spawn could be suggested for rearing to fry stagewithout aeration.
