Abstract :

In the present work evaluated the reproductive performance of goldfish, Carassius auratus relation with morphometric parameters and climatic conditions. Study was carried during the periods from December, 2012 to April, 2013. Goldfish females standard length (17 � 1.41cm) and total weight (23 � 5.36 g). Gonad weight ranged between (1.50 - 4 g), absolute fecundity (1500-2900), relative fecundity (96.66 - 107.14), GSI% (9.52 - 13.13) and egg diameter (380 - 430 �) were observed.
