The photos show the sampling process of milkfish (Chanos chanos) and tilapia mossambicus (Oreochromis mossambicus) grown in an earthen fish pond located in Tanga region, Tanzania. This trial aimed to evaluate the performance of the two species in marine waters. The sampling was done to check the growth rate and the overall condition of sampled fish. In this particular sample and as the photos show, sampled fish were dominated by milkfish while tilapia was able to avoid the net used in the sampling.
