Salinity Salinity is the dissolved salt content of water and is often expressed as the parts of salt by weight per thousand parts of water by weight (ppt). Channel catfish can breed and reproduce over a wide range of salinities. Eggs can hatch and fry will develop in waters with salinities up to at least 8 parts per thousand, but the optimum salinity for channel catfish hatchery supplies appears to be between 0.5 and 3 ppt (500 to 3,000 ppm).
Hybrids HSB are generally stocked into freshwater systems but they do well in salinities of O to 25 ppt, and some can survive salinities up to full strength seawater (35 ppt).
