Abstract

The reaction of the growth optimum of fish to periodically fluctuating temperature is systemic: there is a synchronous increase in the specific growth rate, reduction of respiration intensity, an increase in red blood cell count and in hemoglobin level, and a decrease in the hemoglobin content in erythrocytes.
