The fish haematology is a vital source to know the health status of the fish. Now until much literature on several sides of haematopatho physio-biology is achievable on most of the vital freshwater fishes in India. The goal of this study to calibrate haematological study of Clarius batrachus. In this perusal, the calculated values were compared between male and female Clarias batrachus as well as a comparison between winter, summer and rainy seasons. Haematological parameters like Haemoglobin (Hb),Total erythrocyte count (TEC),Total leucocytes count (TLC), Packed cell volume (PCV), Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), Mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), Mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), Differential leukocytes count (DLC) are taken for study. The freshwater fish showed that Hb, TEC, TLC, PCV, MCV, MCH, MCH and ESR are higher in male than female but Differential leukocytes count (DLC) is higher in female than male except thrombocytes.
