Abstract: 4 treatments with Pangas, Magur, Pabda and Gulsa Tengra at T
1, T
2, T
3 and T
4 at a stocking density of 100 fish/m
3 were evaluated during the study period. The fishes were fed with commercial feed containing 32% protein and feeding was done at the rate of 5% of body weight. After the culture period, significantly (
P<0.05) higher growth and production performance were recorded for Pangas at T
1 and lower for Pabda at T
3. However, calculation of cost-benefit analysis revealed a significantly (
P<0.05) higher total net return and benefit cost ratio (BCR) for T
4 (BDT 13692.01±1741.13 and 0.73±0.09). The present study, therefore, recommended Gulsa Tengra for cage farming in running water of Chalan
beel area.
