The effectiveness of pituitary extract from Crucian carp (Carassius auratus Linnaes 1758) in inducing ovulation in Veil Tail Gold Fish (Carassius auratus gibelio Bloch 1783), was examined and the effect of maternal hormone treatment on egg quality in two types of fertilization (fertilization in aquarium and artificial fertilization), were evaluated in 22·c temperature. Fish were injected intrapritoneally with three doses of, 2, 3 and 4mg/kg B.W pituitary extract (PE). With increasing of pituitary dose, practical fecundity also increased from 1775 in control fish to 3201 in fish with 4mg/kg B.W ofPE. Mean time to ovulation was reduced significantly (P<0.05) from 132h in control fish to 13h in fish with 4mg/kg B.W. Ovulated eggs from fish injected with 4mg!kg B.W of PE had lower fertility and hatching rates compared to eggs from fish injected with lower doses and the control fish. The methods of fertilization had no significant effect on the egg quality. In conclusion, the results of this study showed that the pituitary extract of Crucian carp is effective in inducing and shortening of ovulation of Veil Tail Gold Fish and the suggested dose for this species is 3mg!kg B.W.
