O2 uptake through water during early life of Heteropneustes fossilis (Bloch)

Abstract: The 02 uptake through water has been measured in case of Heteropneustesfossilis during development and growth and its relationship to body size established. A higher rate of 02 uptake during the early phase of ontogenesis is related to intense growth of the respiratory surface area and increasing metabolic demand of the fish.The logarithmic plot of data for 02 uptake in relation to body size shows a statistically significant two-component curve; one related to the fish when it is a fully aquatic breather and t… Show more

“…The reproductive activity is temperature dependent, with 22°C being the reproductive temperature optimum. The eggs are tended by both parents who perform fanning movements with their fins to refresh the water around the eggs (Sheel andSingh 1981, Saxena andSandhu 1994). Egg incubation was found to take from 18 to 24 h, depending on the water temperature.…”
