Abstract

The present study describes the length–weight relationships (LWRs) of two cichlid fish species, Etroplus suratensis (Bloch, 1790) and Etroplus maculatus (Bloch, 1795) collected from Vembanad Lake, Kerala, India during the period June 2012 to May 2013 using gill nets with various mesh sizes (3.5–9 cm) and cast nets with a 1.5 cm mesh size. The values of parameters b in the LWR equation were estimated as 2.67 for E. suratensis and 2.72 for E. maculatus, respectively.
