Abstract

The study has been designed for the induced breeding of Giant Catfish, Sperata seenghala using hormonal analogues at Aquaculture and Fisheries Program, National Agricultural Research Center, Islamabad. The different hormonal analogues used in this study were ovaprim, HcG, LHRH and ovatide. The dose of ovaprim was 0.5 ml/kg 1b.w, ovatide 0.5 ml/kg 1b.w, LHRH 10 ?g/kg 1 in double injection and HcG 10 ?g/kg 1 in double injection. The best reproductive performance has been shown by the treatment of HcG i.e. % fertilization was 80±0.06, % hatchability 75±0.02 and % survival 56±0.02.
