The parameters such as, mortality, haemoglobin content, phagocytic activity and antimicrobial activity were studied. Results revealed that control fishes showed 30% mortality and 10% of mortality was observed 1g/100g garlic extract treated fishes remaining experimental groups showed no mortality. Similarly more haemoglobin content as well as phagocytic activity was observed experimental fishes than control fishes.
