Abstract

The fingerlings of Catla catla were exposed to different sublethal doses of sodium fluoride (20 mg/L of water, 40 mg/L of water and 60 mg/L water) for 20, 40 and 60 days. Observations revealed that fluoride concentration as well as exposure period had an effect on the growth of fishes. The present study reveals that increase in length and weight was retarded after exposure to fluoride in fingerlings.
Retardation was comparatively more in higher concentration as compared to lower concentration and also during longer exposure as compared to less exposure
