The female broods of 120-140 g weight range were selected for induced breeding. Ovatide was used as hormone for induced breeding of fish. It was procured from the firm Hemmo Pharma, Mumbai. It is available in liquid form in bottles. Three doses of ovatide viz. 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 ml per kg body weight were adopted. The males and females were kept separately. Injections were administered intramuscularly, in the dorso-lateral region of the female body of female brood fish. This enabled the researchers to find out the optimum dose, required for optimum spawning of the fish
