• B. $\begin{array}{ccc}A& B& C\\ \text{Rohu}& \text{Silver cap}& \text{Mrigals}\end{array}$
• C. $\begin{array}{ccc}A& B& C\\ \text{Silver cap}& \text{Rohu}& \text{Mrigals}\end{array}$
• D. $\begin{array}{ccc}A& B& C\\ \text{Mrigals}& \text{Silver cap}& \text{Rohu}\end{array}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\begin{array}{ccc}A& B& C\\ \text{Silver cap}& \text{Rohu}& \text{Mrigals}\end{array}$

Silver carp is a surface feeder that can grow with Catla at the top surface zone. Rohu fish take the feed from the middle level and can be grown in the middle zone. Mrigals can be kept with common carps as they are bottom feeders.
