Laboratory studies were conducted on juvenile horse mackerel to examine feeding selectivity and rates of zooplankton consumption of two size classes of fish. Fish were fed a variety of natural zooplankton assemblages and sequential subsampling of water in the experimental tanks provided estimates of prey concentration. Video observations were used to examine feeding behaviour and to investigate the feeding response of horse mackerel to various food types and prey sizes. 2014-09-08T09:56:50Z 2014-09-08T09:56:50Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6968 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
