The Use of Zeolit and Activated Carbon on Packing System of Corydoras aenus

<p>Problem frequently found by Indonesian exporter in sending ornamental fish including <em>Corydoras aenus </em>to overseas is the low survival rate that caused by decrease in water quality during transportation.  Suitable and efficient packing technology is very needed to send li...
