Abstract

The experiment indicated feasibility of culturing Indian major carps seed
with Lates calcarifer, if the size of Indian Major Carps is larger. In the
present investigation the average growths of Catla catla, Labeo rohita and
Cirrhinus mrigala are recorded as 1193, 1120 and 821 g, respectively, during
the year 1997-98, 1998-99 and 1999-2000 in 7.5 months. Complete haresting of
L. calcarifer is essential before stocking of new seed. The average growth of
L. calcarifer was recorded as about 670 g during the above period. About
5000 numbers of Indian Major Carps fry per hectare can be stocked under the
present culture system. ·
