Total fish length ranged from 6.9-14.5 cm and weight ranged from 2.60-31.36 g. The length-weight relationships were determined for males, females and combined sexes as W=0.0055L3.25, W=0.0065L3.17, W=0.0059L3.21 respectively. All fishes have been found to be positive allometric growth (b˃3, P0.93, P |
