Opportunity of integrated production of "Ceratophyllum demersum" in a nutrition trial with "Carassius auratus"

<p>[EN]The integrated culture of fish and plant in a recirculated system is called aquaponics, where a mutual benefit have been demonstrated for the cocultured species. Today this practice is still not well known for the most studied consumed freshwater species, and almost nothing has been done for aquarium species. The objective of present work was to study the opportunity of growing one of the most selled aquarium plant coontail (Ceratophyllum demersum) in a coculture with the goldfish (Carassius auratus) from which a nutritional trial was planned.</p>
