Abstract :
The state of Madhya Pradesh is the central
state of India & one of the important aquatic
biodiversity hotspots of the country, having bestowed
with a large number of water bodies both lotic and
lentic, the state boasts of rich fish biodiversity. The aim
of this study is collection and identification of finfish that
found in Indira sagar reservoir and the water quality
parameter of the reservoir in which the fishes thriving.
Total 54 species of 9 order were found in the reservoir in
Khandwa district including labeo rohita,Catla catla,
Cirrhinus mrigala, Ctenopharyngodon idella Labeo
calbasu, Puntius sophore, Pethia ticto,Puntius chola,
Cyprinus carpio, Pangasianodon hypophthalmus,
Oreochromis mossambicus, Glossogobius giuris, Channa
marulius, Channa gachua , Channa striata and Clarias
magur etc. The 03 species of transplanted Indian major
carps Catla catla, Cirrhinus mrigala and Labeo rohita are
dominating the fishermen catches The authors are of
firm opinion that the exotic species are posing
competition for food and space to the native species.. To
certain extend even hybrid of catla and rohu are
available in the fish catches The water quality
parameters were significantly found suitable for
freshwater cultivable species including the temperature,
dissolved oxygen, Total hardness , dissolved oxygen and
temperature are higher in summer season and lower in
winter season. This may be due to higher photosynthetic
rate in summer season. Whereas the pH value is higher
in winter season and lower in summer season. It
indicates reduction in photosynthetic activities in winter
which reduces assimilation of carbon dioxide and
bicarbonates.
