Abstract

The treatment of sodium 'bicarbonate at the dosage of 100 to 1000 mg /litre has been
tested ex}>erimentally on the hatching and postembryonic growth of Brachydanio rerio,
Cyprinus carpio, Labeo rohita, Cirrhinus mrigala and Catla catla. Lower dosages of 100 to
200 mg have been found to reduce the hatching period, yolk absorption period and improve
the survival and growth of the post embryonic larvae. The higher dosages of 500 to 1000
mg has. been found to reduce the hatching percentage and I>Ostembryonic growth of the
larvae. The findings indicate that application of sodium bicarbonate in the hatchery and
nursery management of earns in the lower dosages of 100 to 200 mg!L to imj>rove hatching
and I>ostembryonic growth.
