RESUMO
The biocontrol efficacy of giant gourami against various aquatic weeds, which form the breeding source of Mansonioides, the vectors of B. malayi, was explored. This fish showed a feeding predilection towards Pistia plant which is the most favoured host of immatures of Mansonioides. A single fish consumed this weed on an average of 206.25 +/- 19.09 g and 316.85 +/- 26.55 g a day under laboratory and field conditions respectively. Techniques developed for the culturing of this fish are also described.
