The study looked at how different levels of salt in the water affect the survival and growth of giant freshwater prawns. They found that the prawns can survive in a wide range of salt levels, from no salt to moderate levels. The prawns grew best in water with a moderate amount of salt, and their survival rate was highest in lower salt levels. This means that these prawns can be farmed successfully in areas with varying levels of salt in the water.
