The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of Ocimum tenuiflorum extract on haematological parameters of Channa punctatus (Bloch). Ocimum tenuiflorum extract produced positive effects on haematological parameters of Channa punctatus after 7days, 28 days and 49 days exposure to 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg of basal diet extract. The haemoglobin content was 4.90 g/dL ± 0.50 g/dL in control group that was gradually increased to 6.60 g/dL ± 0.50 g/dL. The platelet count was 170000/ cu.mm ± 10000 /cu.mm in control group that increased to 394000/cu.mm ± 10000/cu.mm. While the leucocyte content in control group was 62100/cu.mm ± 500 /cu.mm that decreased to 45000/cu.mm ± 500/cu.mm. The results indicate positive impact of Ocimum tenuiflorum extract on complete blood cell count of Channa punctatus.
