“…[42] Dwivedi and Mayank (2013) reported that the C. carpio attained an average length of 19.0, 26.7, 37.5, 41.1, 45.5, 49.6, 54.9, 59.5, 63.1, 66.2, 70.9 and 76.2 cm, respectively at the end of 1+ to 12+ years of the life cycle from the Yamuna River, Uttar Pradesh, India. Several factors can account for the fluctuation in the age and growth rate as like quantity and quality of available food, the richness of species, density of exotic species (Example especially Cyprinus carpio) quality of the water (For example organic load, heavy metal concentration), maturity and spawning cycle [57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69]. This species can typically live for around 20 years in the wild freshwater ecosystem (for example rivers) [70][71].…”

Heavy fishing affects the population by the exploited section of the stock in riverine water bodies. Cyprinus carpio is very frequently cultured in the Ganga basin especially middle and lower stretches of the river due to its plasticity nature (survival rate), fast growth rate, high market demand, consumer preference and very simply availability of seed (example fry and fingerlings). C. carpio is highly adaptable to a suite of environmental conditions. Age composition, age and growth of C. carpio were studied during February 2019 to 2020 January from fish landing centre at Sirsa, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India. The hard part, key scales were studied for estimation of age and growth in the present study because of easy availability. A total of 548 specimens in length ranges between 97 to 687 mm and age classes of 0+ to 9+ were estimated in the river. The fish attained mean length of 203, 325, 413, 478, 529, 565, 594, 621 and 643 mm, respectively at the end of 1+ to 9+ years of the life cycle. The maximum growth was observed in first year with 203 mm of the life span. The result also indicated that the age composition and growth rate of C. carpio in the invaded waters of the Tons River is very appropriate to the fishes.

“…In general, C. carpio and O. niloticus have not any ecological standard from the lotic ecosystem [5,[43][44][45].Both species are commercially exploited from the Ganga basin [46] and highly utilize natural resources, threat biodiversity of fishes and damage indigenous fish stock [47][48][49]. But reproductive system and recruitment process are damaging by high concentration of metals in fish body [50][51][52][53].…”

Cyprinus carpio (Common carp) and Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia) are commercially and frequently exploited fishes from the Ganga river at Kanpur, India. Study was undertaken during the period 2012 to 2013 from the Ganga river. Rivers are heavily impacted due to their use for carrying off the industrial, municipal, agricultural and domestic effluents. Water samples were collected for the present study from the Ganga river at Kanpur. The minimum temperature was recorded in winter season and maximum in summer season. The pH, TDS, EC, phosphate, chloride, total hardness, nitrate, DO and all heavy metals (e.g. Cu, Cr, Cd, Zn, Pb, Hg) values exhibited their minimum in monsoon season. The sulphate and BOD were recorded minimum in winter season while alkalinity and COD had their lowest values in summer season. The water quality of the Kanpur station was very poor which is not suitable for Indian major carp (IMC). However, the Ganga river waters could host some tolerant fish species such as the exotic Cyprinus carpio and Oreochromis niloticus and also catfishes. All these species are very hardy, in respect of water quality (poor), thus they have strongly invaded in despoiled ecosystem of the river.

Human activities have been widely accepted as a driver of rapid trait change in wild fish stock globally with help of stressors. Fishing and invasive species are among the most important stressors which are affecting freshwaters fish stock from the lotic and lentic ecosystem. Study was carried out between the periods November 2015 to October 2016 from the Ghaghara river at Faizabad, India. The age composition of C. mrigala varied from 0+ to 8+ from the Ghaghara river at Faizabad. On the basis of sampled specimen in the length range from 15.7 to 88.7cm showed that the fish attained the mean length 25.3cm in 1+, 43.8cm in 2+, 57.5cm in 3+, 67.2cm in 4+, 74.7cm in 5+, 79.6cm in 6+, 83.9cm in 7+ and 87.3cm in 8+ age classes. The growth increments of C. mrigala was recorded as 25.3cm, 18.5cm, 13.7cm, 9.7cm, 7.5cm, 4.9cm, 4.3cm and 3.4cm for 1+ to 8+ age classes, respectively. The maximum growth increment was estimated in 1 st year and moderate in the subsequent years.
