A 60 day experiment was conducted for raising the fry of Ompok pabda of initial avg. weight and length as 0.6 ± 0.18g and 1.8 ± 0.28 cm respectively in a partial recirculatory aquaculture system. The stocking density of fries was 2115/m3. The fries were fed with commercial feed having 40% crude protein as per the feeding schedule designed and a continuous water recirculation @1l/sec was maintained. Monthly sampling
was designed for examining fish growth and the vital water quality parameters in both the culture tanks, reservoir tank and mother tank was measured weekly. The survival (%), weight gain (%), SGR, FCR, ANPU, K and R2 were calculated and recorded; 96±0.02, 920.94 ±72.87,
1.04±0.08, 2.66±0.32, 24±0.04, 0.41±0.02, 0.82 ±0.39 respectively. The physiochemical parameters of water were found to be in optimum range throughout the culture period. There was no significant (p > 0.05)
difference found in weight gain % between same age group of RAS and farm reared pabda. However, a significantly (p < 0.05) higher survival rate (96%±0.02) was found compared to previous studies. The present
study suggested a technology for raising stocking material for enclosure culture in in-situ condition to overcome the constraints of land based rearing of fish and avoid post transport mortality due to handling
stress.
