Question

• A. Surface feeders and bottom feeders
• B. Middle zone feeders and bottom feeders
• C. Surface feeders only
• D. Surface feeders, middle zone feeders, and bottom feeders

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Surface feeders, middle zone feeders, and bottom feeders

The correct option is D.

Explanation of correct option:

1. Composite fish culture is a common method for getting the most fish out of a pond or reservoir.
2. Through the use of various feeding zones of the pond or water tank, the technology employs suitable and non-competing fish culture, leading to a high fish output per unit area of water.
3. Five to six distinct kinds of fish can be cultivated together in the same fish pond in the composite fish culture.
4. Surface feeders, intermediate zone feeders, and bottom feeders are ideal for composite fish production since they consume all available food and do not compete for it.

Final Answer: Most suitable for composite fish culture is surface feeders, middle zone feeders, and bottom feeders.
