Caspian trout (Salmo trutta caspius ) is one of the migratory fish species which lives and feeds in the Caspian Sea .This species distributed in south and western of the Caspian Sea . In order to rehabilitation of the Caspian trout in western area, the operation of the project started from the beginning of the fishing season of the 20112012. Specimens of the Caspian trout obtained from beach seine cooperatives and have been transferred to the fish farm in Asalem region .Totally, 44 specimens of the Caspian trout has been caught in two month period .Most of the fishes was from Kargan roud river . The mean length and weight of the brood fishes were 67.7 cm and 3122.7 g respectively .As at present Shilat uses just the broods of the Tonekaboon region for restocking of this species ,we recommend to use the broods of the western region separately for rehabilitation of the stocks of this region .

This study was carried out about 15 months to determine suitable locations for the development of aquaculture across the Gamasiab river of Hamedan province in 2007 - 2008. Physicochemical parameters and macro benthic invertebrates fauna 15 and 13 stations respectively every 45 days and seasonally fish identify in 8 stations were performed according standard methods. The average water temperature was 12.8±3.7 oC, minimum and maximum dissoled oxygen were 2.6 and 12.5 mg/lit respectively during the study. The pH range was between 7.5-8.8 , the minimum and maximum Ec was 250 and 750 µmos/cm in Mehr and Tir. The transparency range was recorded about 1-103 F.T.U. The uder factors such as amount of suspended materials: 0.01-0.1 mg/l, amount of BOD5: 0.05-6.2 mg/l and COD: 30 (minimum) and 70.57 (maximum) were recorded. The total solids material (T.S.S) were less than 1 mg/lit. Totally 37 groups of bentic organisms were identified which 11 groups of them were appertained to pollution sensitive orders containing Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera and Plecoptera. During fish population studied 21 species belonging 5 family were identified. Based on obtained results of biological, ecological, economic and social parameters, 10 sites in 7 areas were suitable identified for fish rearing and 12 aquaculture programs (10 plan for fish rearing and 2 plan for increasing fish production of (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The minimum and maximum production capacity in mentioned places was estimated about 1675 and 3850 tons respectively.

Three experiments carried out to determine optimize level of crude protein, lipid and gross energy requirements of Kutum fish (Rutilus frissi kutum) fingerling. A completly randomized design consisted of 4 treatments with triplicates which those was used with four experimental dietary crude protein levels (35, 40. 45 and 50% CP), Four crude lipid levels (8, 12, 16 and 20%) and four gross energy levels (4250, 4500, 4750 and 5000 k cal/kg of diet) being tested separately. Kutum fish fingerling averaging 1067 ± 98 mg,,2378 ± 185 mg, and 1067 ± 143 mg respectively and stocked with density of 20 fish at volum 80 liters. Fish fed with 3% of wet body weight at three times, 9 am, 12 am and 4 pm. The following performance parameters were evaluated final weight, weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, specific growth rate, protein effieciency ratio and condition factor. Fish fed diets 40% CP, 20% CL and 4500 K Cal/kg Gross energy could meet the nutritional requierments of kutum fish fingerling.
