Abstract. Cod (225 g) were exposed to seawater (8.6 ^oC) containing different concentrations of metomidate from 0 to 10 mg L^-1, Aqui – S(iso-eugenol) and Finquel^Ò (MS-222) from 0 to 100 mg L^-1. All anaesthetic concentrations were mixed and expressed as mg L^-1 in relation to the active substance of the various anaesthetics. Times to stage 4 (loss of reflex activity), 5 (respiratory movement ceases) and stage 3; total recovery of equilibrium were measured to nearest second. Stage 5 occurred after 7 and 12 minutes of 100 and 75 mg iso-eugenol/ L^-1 (Aqui-S), after 12 and 18 min. of 100 and 75 mg L^-1  Finquel^Ò, and after 16 min. of 10 mg L^-1  metomidate. Finquel^Ò and metomidate induced anaesthesia more rapid and efficient at higher dosage (75 – 100 mg L^-1) compared to Aqui – S. However Aqui – Sinduced anaesthesia at lower concentrations. The recovery times for cod exposed for Aqui – S was nine to 30 times longer than in those exposed to Finquel^Ò at similar dosages. All anaesthetics were deemed as useful for cod. This study showed that Finquel^Ò and metomidateweremore suitable for cod at higher dosage with rapid anaesthesia and larger safety margin compared to Aqui-S. The use of Aqui-S on cod at higher dosages (as 75 – 100 mg iso-eugenol L^-1) should only be done under constant supervision, and with no longer exposure than 2-3 min..
