    Abstract: Common carp, <I>Cyprinus carpio</I> L. is a commercial aquaculture 
  species and also a pest fish that can destroy local aquatic communities. An 
  effective anaesthetic method has been developed to meet both aquacultural and 
  ecological studies of the fish. Clove oil is a cheap and safe anaesthetic for 
  fish and humans. However, there are few reports on its efficiency on adult carps. 
  In this study, using carp samples (average wet weight = 1.25 kg), effective 
  concentrations of clove oil was determined by to be 50 mg L<SUP>-1</SUP>. The induction 
  time taken to reach each of anaesthetic stages appeared to be inversely proportional 
  to clove oil concentration.
