Analysis of intestinal contents of silver carp (H. molitrix) and bighead carp (A. nobilis) showed that silver carp consumed primarily phytoplankton while bighead carp consumed large quantities of zooplankton, detritus and phytoplankton. The size of particles filtered by the bighead carp was larger (17-3000 .mu.m) than that filtered by silver carp (8-100 .mu.m). Artificial feed was readily consumed by bighead carp but not by silver carp. No growth difference was indicated for silver carp in fertilized ponds and ponds receiving artificial feed. Growth of bighead carp increased substantially with the addition of artificial feed. Silver carp grew more rapidly in cages than bighead carp.
