studied. Forage fishes freshly killed sardines and formulated feed was given to the broodstocks during maintenance in concrete tanks and netcages in the sea.
Broodstocks were administered with steroid hormones (P estradiol - P diol) and human chorionic gonadotrophin @ 250pg and 50 1.U.IKg body weight
respectively at 60 days intervals for the acceleration of gonadal maturation. Gonadal development of the broodstocks was monitored through live biopsy at 90
days intervals
