Diet

mrigal fish are the benthopelagic and potamodromous plankton feeder. Naturally they are mainly feed on detritus such as debris found in the bottom layers of the water. They are also a keen algae and invertebrates feeder. But today they are feed commercial feeds in commercial production.

hatchlings of mrigal generally remain in the surface or sub-surface waters. But the fry and fingerling tend to move to deeper water. And the mature fish are bottom dwellers. Depending on location, mrigal fish generally reach maturity within their 1-2 years of age, when their body length reach around 34 cm. In natural conditions, generally breeding occurs during the south-west monsoon season in shallow newly inundated wetlands and or river side pools. They generally breed in water of 0.5-1.0 m. The females can lay up to a million eggs. Artificial breeding is very popular for this fish species.
