Abstract: For the breeding of Trichogaster labiosua (Day), male and female individuals were kept in the ratio of 1:1 in clean and clear water containing the aquatic weeds, Hydrilla sp. Trichogaster labiosua easily bred in the aquarium conditions on gradually increasing temperature of aquarium water. Nesting behaviour of the fish was observed within the temperature range 24−28⁰C. Spawning rate ranged from 20,000−25,000. The developmental period was observed between18−25 days.
