Effective broodstock management for successful Channa striatus seed production
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The striped murrel (Channa striata) is a freshwater fish that has gained significant attention in modern aquaculture. The nutritional advantages, adaptability to diverse habitats, and strong market demand have driven advancements in breeding and hatchery practices. A key aspect of these developments is the establishment of robust broodstock, vital for successful fish farming. Effective management of C. striatus broodstock is crucial for high-quality egg and larval production, supporting commercial aquaculture, sustainable use of natural stocks, and enhancing the economic viability of fish farming. Advancements in hatchery technology, such as recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and hormone therapies, have transformed broodstock management by improving water quality and spawning outcomes. The move toward farm broodstock increased growth rates and reproductive performance, reduced dependence on wild populations, and supported sustainable aquaculture.
