| Characteristics of water resources in the forest; aquatic organisms (algae, plankton, benthos, pleuston and nekton); ecosystems, energy and efficiency; lakes and rivers types of formations, what are the community of organisms in these waters? They will be presented for information. What is fish? Description will be made.
Classification of fish living in the forest water resources, definiation broadly, ecological and taxonomic features. General characteristics of fish of water resources in the forest. The current situation, identifying overall and importance of fish having economic importance of water resources in the forests in our country. To explain basic information about the living and having economic important fish species in the forest water resources, to be the offspring of species, breeding selection, feeding, larvae production techniques, increasing the efficiency of the pool, harvest, explaining the overview of the stocking operation.
What are the water resources and farming systems in the production of these fish? General information about Reproductive physiology in the species, age at sexual maturity, size and time of ovulation, life cycles and growth, water quality criteria, species and broodstock selection will provide.
