The presence of mullet in 4,000-liter tanks used for rearing bull innows (Fundulus grandis) was noted to promote and prolong algal blooms compared to tanks of bull minnows containing no mullet. In separate studies utilizing 4-liter cultures, algal concentrations were noted to be an average of 3 times as dense in containers with mullet as opposed to cultures with either no fish present or bull minnows present. Algal concentrations for all treatments were an average of 2 times denser for treatments that were fed as opposed to those that received no food. |
