An Efficacy of Ova prims on Induced Breeding in Non Cyprinid Fish Claries Bartech’s
Abstract
Clarius batrachus is most preferred clariids among various catfish for aquaculture in India. ‘Ovaprim' is a substitute to pituitary extract and found potent analogue of naturally occurring brain peptide. Induced spawning of C. batrachus was conducted at different Ovaprim dose and latency period combinations to observe the deformed larvae among the hatchlings. On the ova prim injection, accelerated the rate of fecundity in C. batrachus. After comparing both the species, results on ova prim treatment found is equally effective in Clarias batrahus.
