Nila fish is Animal that group in omnivore that
feeds on both plankton and aquatic plants. Nila fish generally feeds
in shallow waters, as harmful gases (such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen
sulfide, and ammonia) and temperature fluctuations found in deep waters
create problems for the physiology of the fish. Nila fish thrives on the warmer
temperatures commonly found in shallow waters compared to the colder
environment of the deep lake. Nila fish generally are macrophyte-feeders,
feeding on a diverse range of filamentous algae and plankton.
