The feed consists of protein-rich defatted biomass of Nannochloropsis oculata and whole cells of DHA-rich Schizochytrium sp. and was found to perform better in growth, weight gain, specific growth rate, best feed conversion ratio and fish nutrient content than the reference diet of ocean-derived fishmeal and fish oil.
Bluegill try to spend most of their time in water from 60 to 80 °F (16 to 27 °C), and tend to have a home range of about 320 square feet (30 m 2) during nonreproductive months.

Redear sunfish generally resemble bluegill except for coloration and somewhat larger maximum size. The redear sunfish also has faint vertical bars traveling downwards from its dorsal. [3] It is dark-colored dorsally and yellow-green ventrally. Unlike bluegill, the male has a cherry-red edge on its operculum; females have orange coloration in ...
