The present study was carried out to find out the distribution energy pattern in the body parts of Etroplus suratensis (bloch). The study indicated that the mean energy density of the edible portion of immature fish was 17.47 kJ/g dry weight compared 20.20 kJ/g and 19.65 kJ/g of adult female and male respectively. Similarly the energy density of inedible portion of immature fish was 15.65 kJ/g while that of adult female and male were 17.49 kJ/g and 16.62 kJ/gdry weight respectively. | Int.J.Curr.Microbiol.App.Sci 2020 9 1 1282-1287 EXCELLENT PUBLISHERS International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN 2319-7706 Volume 9 Number 1 2020 Journal homepage http www.ijcmas.com Original Research Article https doi.org 10.20546 ijcmas.2020.901.141 Distribution of Body Energy in Etroplus suratensis Bloch S.

Introduction The pearl spot Etroplus suratensis is an estuarine fish of commercial importance. It possesses certain requisite qualities essential for aquaculture such as good body weight growth rate high adaptability for food tasty flesh and good market price Joseph 1980 Jayaprakash and Phil 1980 Rattan 1994 . Etroplus suratensisis a widely cultured species in the Indo-pacific region and is known to breed in confined waters Hora and Pillay 1962 . Being euryhaline the species could easily be acclimatized to fresh waters indicating its suitability in pond aquaculture. E. suratensis is also maintained as all aquarium fish because of its attractive colouration Rattan 1994 . However the successful culture of any endemic .
