Circadian rhythm of juveniles of brown-marbled grouper and orange-spotted grouper
There are several methods to give feed to fish, for example manual feeding, automatic feeding (using timer feeder) and demand feeding (self feeding). Recently automatic feeding and demand feeding are expected as new feeding methods for aquaculture. Because these feeding methods have advantages, suc...

There are several methods to give feed to fish, for example manual feeding, automatic feeding (using timer feeder) and demand feeding (self feeding). Recently automatic feeding and demand feeding are expected as new feeding methods for aquaculture. Because these feeding methods have advantages, such as, the staffs of fish farms do not need feeding at night time, if fish farms use these new methods. However, there are no data about fish circadian rhythms about both of brown-marbled grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus and orange-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides. Therefore this study was conducted to obtain the basic data about feeding activity during 24 hours for new feeding methods.
