A direct and straightforward method for measurement real maximum fish stomach volume to improve aquaculture feeding research
ABSTRACT: In fish feeding studies, stomach related parameters are mainly measured in order to have biometric relationships. To determine those parameters a direct and straightforward method for measuring real maximum stomach volume in fish based on Archimedes' principle was tested and compared...
