Day 0 | Day 1 | Day 3 | Day 5 | Day 7 | Weight gain (accumulated) (%)1 | Survival rate (%)2 | |
BD | 5.83 ± 0.11a* | 5.82 ± 0.14a | 5.86 ± 0.22a | 5.98 ± 0.62a | 6.15 ± 0.52a | 5.51 ± 0.34a | 90.0 ± 2.4a |
SD | 5.84 ± 0.16a | 5.84 ± 0.12a | 5.85 ± 0.16a | 5.91 ± 0.23b | 5.94 ± 0.32b | 1.70 ± 0.34b | 83.3 ± 4.7b |
CD | 5.82 ± 0.17a | 5.83 ± 0.15a | 5.84 ± 0.18a | 5.90 ± 0.31b | 5.93 ± 0.24b | 1.86 ± 0.17b | 81.7 ± 3.6b |
Data were given as means ± standard deviation (n = 3). 1Percentage accumulated weight gain in a group was calculated by first obtaining the sum of body weight at day 7 minus that at day 1, then divided by body weight at day 1, finally multiplied by 100%. 2Survival rate was calculated by the number of live PL at day 1 minus that at day 7, then multiplied by 100%. *Different letters in the same column indicate significant difference (p < 0.05), same letters indicate no difference (p > 0.05).
