본 연구는 황복, T. obscurus 치어(TL mm, BW g)의 초기 생활사 동안 성장, 생존 및 공식행위에 있어 밀도와 먹이 공급횟수(공급량)의 관련성을 구명하기 위해 밀도와 먹이제한 조건에서 일렬의 실험을 실시하였다. 실험기간 중 실험 밀도는 1.43 inds./, 2.14 inds./, 2.86 inds./, 3.57 inds./, 4.29 inds./ & 7.14 inds./와 같이3반복으로 6개의 실험구를 설정하여 주었고, 먹이 공급은 1
To investigate the influence of density and feeding frequency (food amount) on growth, cannibal dynamics and survival of puffer Takifugu obscurus (TL mm, BW g) during early life history, we conducted one experiment composed with 6 density groups set up as 1.43 inds./, 2.14 inds./, 2.86 inds./, 3.57 inds./, 4.29 inds./ and 7.14 inds./. The experiment was triplicately performed in 1 ton FRP tank for 30 days. Daily food intake (DFI), feed efficiency (FE), growth, cannibal frequency, and survival rates were examined. Although not find any significant relation of density to DFI and FE, we found that growth decreased significantly with the increasing of density under 3.57 inds./, but significantly increased with the increasing of density over 4.29 inds./. Cannibal frequency and daily mortality rate was significantly increased with increasing density and decreasing feeding frequency, inducing the most poor survival rate in the highest density group and low feeding frequency. Therefore, we concluded that the density and the feeding frequencies affect sibling cannibal dynamics and survival of puffer stock.
