Fish seed is the most important component for fish culture. Culturing of high resistance, High growth rate and low mortality rate fish species will brings huge production rate. The mohi tummeda vagu have providing shelter for various species of fishes, birds, weeds and other Aqua related organisms. The freshwater resources of our country for fish culture are estimated to be 2.85 million hectares of pond and tanks. In addition to this, another 2.05 million hectares of water area is available in the form of reservoirs or lakes. It has been estimated that nearly 14250 million fry would be required for stocking even the present available cultivable resources of 2.85 million hectares on a conservative stocking rate of 5000 fry/ha. The present production is 15007 million fry. Apart from this, at least an additional quantity of 4100 million fry are required for stocking the available area of lakes and reservoirs with an average stocking rate of 2000 fry/ha. This indicates that there is a necessity to raise the fry to stock the available water resources.
