Key points for overwintering management in the fry and fingerling culture of freshwater pomfret
The freshwater pomfret is a tropical fish species. Its main suitable growth temperature range is between 21-32°C, with the optimum range at 28-30°C. At a water temperature of 16°C, the pomfret only begins to eat a small amount; at 12°C, the fish's balance becomes disturbed; and at 10°C, it causes death. During the overwintering process, water temperatures that are too low
