Within the PTF (ПЦФ) project “Development of evidence-based recommendations for increasing the fish productivity of fishery reservoirs through the introduction and reintroduction of fish and hydrobionts – components of the food base of fish”, as a part of the budget program 267, the employees of the laboratory of hydrobiology and hydroanalysis are testing the survival of the bivalve mollusk Monodacna colorata (Eichwald, 1829) from the Kapchagai reservoir in the natural water of Lake Sasykkol.

Currently, a 100% survival rate for monodacna has been documented.
