Description
It reaches an adult size of 18 cm. (7 in) and a weight of 70 grams (2.5 oz). The first maturity of female occurs at 4.7 cm. At the population level, size at 50% maturity (LM50) is 8.6-9.0 cm.[2]
Habitat
Its native habitat is rivers, streams, and ponds in plains and submontane regions. It is a plentiful shoaling fish.
Breeding
Pool barbs naturally breed within a temperature range 20–30 °C and >50 mm rainfall. The threshold gonadosomatic index (GSI) for breeding is 10.5 units in females. Females also need to attain a body fitness (Fulton's condition factor) of at least 1.6-1.7 units for successful spawning decision.[2]
Synonyms
This fish was originally named Cyprinus sophore by Francis Buchanan-Hamilton in 1822, and is also referred to as Systomus sophore, and Barbus sophore.
