Seabass is a shallow water fish. The entire fishing of the Lates calcarifer is confined to the coastal waters and tidal rivers of Bangladesh. Their distribution does not extend to deep sea and is limited to 40-60 nautical miles from the shore. In Bangladesh, this fish is available in Naf river estuary of Teknaf Hossain et al., (1998), Bakkhali river estuary of Cox’s Bazar (Hossain et al., 1998; Das, 2000), Chakaria (Hossain et al., 1998; Monowar et al., 2013), Karnafully river estuary of Chattagram (Karmaker and Das, 2000), Feni river, Sandwip, Char kukrimukri, Char chapli, Galachipa, Urir Char and Hatiya, (Quddus and Shafi, 1983), Barisal, Patuakhali and Khulna (Rahman, 1989), Rupsha and Shibsha river near Khulna (Kamruzzaman, 2013), Bagerhat and Satkhira (Siddik et al., 2016). Sexually mature fish are found in the mouths of the river and in the coastal area where salinity and depth range between 30-32 ppt and 10-15 m, respectively (Huda et al., 2003). The newly hatched larvae (15-20 days old or 0.4-0.7 cm) are distributed along the coast of the brackish water estuaries, while the 1-cm larvae can be found in freshwater bodies such as rivers, canals, river side submerged areas etc. Under natural conditions, seabass grows in fresh water and migrates to more salt water for spawning (Kamal et al., 2018). Adults and juvenile fish have territorial behavior, and migration is seasonal. The species is considered tropical, tolerant to temperatures from 15 ° to 40 ° C (Katersky and Carter, 2005). Identification of the sexes is difficult except during the spawning season. Seabass spends 2-3 years in freshwater areas i.e. rivers or lakes which are connected to the sea for its developing. It has a quick growth rate, regularly achieving a size of 3-4 kg within 23 years. Adult fish (3-4 years) move from fresh waters to the mouth of the river into the ocean, where salinity ranges from 28-31 ppt for gonadal development and resulting spawning (Moore, 1982; Davis, 1985). Several authors have described sea bass as an annual breeder with a single peak spawning (Patnaik and Jena, 1976; Kowtal, 1977; Russell and Garrett, I983, 1985; Davis, 1985. In Chilka Lake, India, Jhingran and Natarajan (1969) observed two spawning peaks. In Bangladesh, single peak spawning was observed, seabass spawned during the transitional monsoon from late April to early June Das (2000). The spawning season and duration vary from place to place, but breeding is synchronized with the wet season so that larvae can take advantage of the aquatic habitat resulting from rain, which provides a food-rich, predator-free environment for the development of young fish. (Moore, 1979; Davis, 1985). The adult seabass is considered an insatiable carnivore (Russell and Garrett, 1983) but juveniles are omnivorous and opportunistic predatory species, with ontogenetic dietary progression from crustacean to fish (Davis, 1985). Several authors (Mennon, 1948; De, 1971, Davis, 1985; Tacon et al., 1991; Kailasam et al. 2002; Al-Noor et al., 2012 and Kamruzzaman et al., 2013) carried out a study on L. calcarifer food and feeding habits. These reviews reveal that fish and crustaceans (shrimp and crab) are the main foodstuffs of seabass in Bangladesh. The present review study found that, in the case of seabass brood breeding, Haroon et al.,(2005) reported an attempt was taken to develop gonadal maturation of seabass. They collected seabass both from wild and captive sources and reared for 4 years in 80 m2 out-door cistern, but failed. Slight semen was observed in males of > 4.0 kg fish. In addition, Saleque and Hossain (2010) stated that in Teknaf, Cox's Bazar, about 500 fish were reared for breeding purposes in 5 earthen ponds, but gonadal maturity not occurred only increased in biomass in over three years. Wild seabass fry and fingerlings are collected from the coastal area of Sundarban, particularly during the post-monsoon period. According to Siddik et al. (2016), seabass farms are usually divided into two sections in Bangladesh; the large one is used to grow shrimps, where native tilapia is used as live food for seabass. Tilapia fish are highly fecund and are constantly producing larvae in the pond. The small section of the farm is used to store seabass until the end of shrimp farming. Nearly all shrimps are harvested and sold between July and September, then the entire farm devoted to seabass cultivation until the next shrimp cultivation season. Seabass is being replenished between December and February.
