The researchers studied how different combinations of fish species in homestead ponds affect growth and production. They used tilapia, silver carp, catla, rohu, mrigal, and mirror carp in various densities. The water quality in the ponds was good, with optimal temperature, oxygen levels, and pH. The highest final weight gain was seen in ponds with tilapia, silver carp, catla, rohu, mrigal, and mirror carp. The total production was highest in ponds with lower densities of fish. Overall, the ponds with tilapia, silver carp, catla, rohu, mrigal, and mirror carp had the best growth and production performance.
