Abstract:

Pesticides are toxic to aquatic organisms which are important components of food chain such as fishes. Fishes are important sources of protein in Nation’s diet. So a thorough understanding of pollutant effect on fishes would be rewarding for fish conservation and fishery development.

Keywords:

Channa orientalis, Acute toxicity, Profenophos
