In the evidence I see that both genetic and environmental factors are affecting the growth of the Talapia species in the experiments. This can be seen through the varying growth rates of the fish in different conditions.
My evidence addresses the claim because it shows that the genetics of the fish play a role in their growth, but so do the environmental conditions in which they are raised. Factors such as water quality, temperature, and food availability all impact the growth of the fish.
In order to grow the biggest fish, I suggest the farmers to breed Talapia species with desirable genetic traits for growth and to provide optimal environmental conditions in the ponds, such as clean water and sufficient food. By carefully selecting breeding pairs and maintaining the ponds properly, the farmers can ensure that the fish are able to reach their maximum growth potential.
