  Integration of Biofloc Technology in Induced Breeding and Larval Rearing of Clarias batrachus (Linnaeus, 1758): Effects on Reproductive Performance, Water Quality, Growth Performance, and Fry Survival

  By Ankit Kumar, Nageshwar Wast

  Abstract: Clarias batrachus (Linnaeus, 1758), commonly known as Desi magur or walking catfish, is an economically important indigenous freshwater fish, but hatchery seed production is often constrained by unstable water quality, variable fertilization and hatching success, and high larval mortality. This study evaluated the integration of Biofloc Technology (BFT) with induced breeding and larval rearing of C. batrachus under controlled indoor conditions. Mature broodstock were induced with Ovaprim and maintained in …
