Observational study shows salinity impacts growth rate and stress biomarkers in striped catfish, suggesting optimal levels for survival.

Growth performance of Pangasianodon hypophthalmus declines significantly as salinity levels increase, negatively affecting survival rates.
Optimal salinity for growth was identified at 12‰, with survival rates varying from maximum at this level to minimum at 24‰ salinity.
Biochemical profiles indicate higher protein and lipid contents at lower salinity levels, while stress biomarkers increase as salinity rises.
Changes in haematological values and stress parameters demonstrate the physiological impacts of salinity on freshwater fish species.

Riaz et al. (2025) studied this question.
