Abstract
The use of anaesthetic agents may reduce stress-induced damage to the fish. In the current investigation anaesthetic efficacy of 2-phenoxyethanol (500 L.L-1 600 L.L-1 700 L.L-1 and 800 L.L-1) on Etroplus suratensis (Bloch 1790)was evaluated. 2-phenoxyethanol appears to be a highly effective anaesthetic in fishes. The time periods necessary for the induction of particular characteristic stages of induction and recovery were determined. The results showed that 600 L.L-1 was the effective concentration that induces anaesthesia in E. suratensis (induction in 17113 sec and recovery time 14921 sec; p0.05). An exponential relationship was observed between concentrations and recovery time whereas an inverse exponential relationship was observed between concentrations of anaesthetic and induction time.
