Abstract

Studied the length-weight relationship and relative condition factor (Kn) of nain (Cirrhinus mrigala), Rohu (Labeo rohita) and bhakur {Catla catla), reared in the highly sodic soil pond at the departmental fish farm with pH as high as 9.33. The regression equations were -1.9034 + 1.7932 x log L, -3.0846 + 2.2502 x log L and -3.6944 + 2.5274 x log L for nain, rohu and bhakur respectively. The regression coefficients (b) ranged from 1.7932 to 2.5274, indicating that these carps did not follow the cube law. Nain was found to have the lowest mean Kn of 0.9967 whereas rohu and bhakur had values of 1.0129 and 1.0007 respectively. While 58 and 50 % populations of rohu and bhakur had K values above 1, only 32.66 % of nain showed K > 1
