Comments |
Fingerlings were imported and raised in earthern ponds in the experimental fish station in Sde Nahum in the Beit Shean Valley. Due to lack of interest, the raising of this species ceased less than two years after its inception. No specimens have been recorded in natural environment (Ref. 37616). Also Ref. 1739. |
