AB  - In this study, the efficacy of three anaesthetic agents (Clove oil, 2-phenoxyethanol and benzocaine) was compared in captive-bred Himri barbel, <I>Carasobarbus luteus</I> (Heckel, 1843). The lowest effective concentrations based on the efficacy criteria of complete anesthesia induction within 180 sec and recovery within 300 sec were determined to be 75 mg L<SUP>-1</SUP> (induction 143&plusmn;15 sec and recovery time 149&plusmn;35 sec) for clove oil, 500 &#956;L L<SUP>-1</SUP> (induction 145&plusmn;27 sec and recovery time 57&plusmn;16 sec) for 2-phenooxyethanol and 50 mg L<SUP>-1</SUP> (induction 152&plusmn;49 sec and recovery time 88&plusmn;24 sec) for benzocaine. The onset of individual phases of anesthesia and recovery times depended significantly on the concentration of the anaesthetic used (p&lt;0.05). An inverse exponential relationship was observed between concentrations of anaesthetic and induction time whereas exponential relationships were observed between concentrations and recovery times for all anaesthetic agents evaluated.
