Etroplus maculatus, commonly known as Orange chromide is a euryhaline fish endemic to brackishwater streams, lagoons, estuaries and the lower reaches of rivers in peninsular India and Sri Lanka. In India, it occurs in Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. The Orange chromide at present is mainly utilized as freshwater and brackishwater ornamental fish as it is reported to survive in water close to 21‰ salinity after gradual acclimatization. The present study was conducted to determine the salinity tolerance of E. maculatus to know the scope of this species to be selected as a marine ornamental fish. Not Available |
