Fig. 2.

Types of observed body color in experimental Oreochromis niloticus.

Fig. 3.

Variation in standard length (cm) of experimental Oreochromis niloticus reared in control treatment (CT) and salinity treatments (ST) up to three months. Values are given as mean ± standard error (SE). The analysis was done using 95% confidence level.
