    Description: This paper reviews some adverse effects of crude oil pollution on fish and fisheries in Nigerian waters. The main causes of spillage include blowout, sabotage, corrosion of pipeline, equipment malfunction, operations/maintenance error etc. There are spillage records from 1976 to 1997 with respect to the yearly oil spill incidents, the sizes of spill in relation to the ecological operational areas and the causes of oil spills in relation to sources of oil spill within oil operation. Based on the observation from the analyses of the spillage reports, several steps were recommended in order to reduce the incident of crude oil spillage in Nigeria petroleum industry for the safety of our fragile water bodies and the fisheries resources stock in them.

    Description: Fry management in aerated and non aerated aquarium and hapa system were determined in Fish Hatchery of Faculty of Agriculture, Shabu Lafia to assess condition factor, percentage survival rate, total body length and percentage weight gain. 200 hatchlings of Clarias.gariepinus fry were put into a 35 x 30 x 15cm aquarium with aerator and without aerator; hapa with aerator and hapa without aerator in 3 replicates. The hapas were made of brown colour plankton net. The fry were fed with 5% of their body weight with Artemia shell free four times daily for the period of sixteen days. Temperature(27.45 ~c 0.05~'C), pH (7.56 ~c 0.03); Dissolved oxygen (8.20 ~c 0.03 mg/L), total alkalinity (l5.36~c 0.03 mg/L) and Free carbon dioxide (4.30 ~c 0.03 mg/L) monitored in each of water quality parameter of the various treatments was not significantly different from each other. The Percentage weight gain (1117 and 1067), percentage survival rate (92.83 and 91.33), total body length(l.07 and 1.07cm) and condition factor (11.99 and 11.44) of C. gariepinus fry in hapa system (aerated and non aerated respectively) are significantly(p〈0.05) higher than those of aquarium in the study although they are not significantly different (P〉0.05) from each other. The use of hapa as an improved system for mass production of C. gariepinus fry is highly recommendable in the large body of water.

    Description: This study investigates the morphometric and meristic features of Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus in relations to heavy metal concentrations. Varying sizes of Clarias nigrodigitatus were obtained with the help of fisher-folks, from Arakanga reservoir Ogun state, Nigeria. Water samples were also collected alongside with fish samples per week and five of the samples were sent to laboratory for analysis to determine the presence of four heavy metals in both fish and water. Lead, Cadmium, Nickel and Arsenic were investigated by atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). Four tissues; gills, kidney, liver and muscle were compared with the level of metals in the water. Lower concentrations of metals were recorded in water except for Cadmium which is higher, than in fish. Lower concentration of heavy metals found in fish and water was less than that recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO's) guideline for maximum concentration recorded in the tissue of the samples. Lead was found to be dominant in the gills of C. nigrodigitatus, while Cadmium was found to be highest in the water sample from Arakanga reservoir. There is significant difference (P〈0.05) in Nickel and Arsenic concentration in the tissues of C. nigrodigitatus and water. It was concluded that though the heavy metals of interest were present in measurable quantities, they were still within safe limits for consumption.

    Description: The effect of zinc exposure evaluated during a four day exposure periods at 13.88ppm, 26.75ppm, 53.5ppm,107ppm and 214ppm to Clarias gariepinus sub-adults showed the 96h LC50 as 26.62ppm. The threshold value was 20.30ppm. The muscle of the exposed fish analyzed showed a significant decrease in all the major cations and anions (Na+, CL-, Ca2+ K+, Mg2+) at (p〈0.05). The research revealed that there was no total inhibition of uptake of the cations and anions and also that uptake of these metals, that is cations and anions (Na+,-CL-, Ca2+ K+, Mg2+) increased rapidly during the 24 hours and dropped at 48 hours and 72 hours and gradually increased at the end of 96 hours showing that it was time dependent. During exposure period, affected fish stood in upright position with their snouts above the water surface, gasping for air. Observation of the exposed fish showed that they were peeling of skin, increase in opercula movement, erratic swimming, quietness and finally death. This research therefore recommends that zinc should be applied appropriately at 26.30ppm to avoid death of fish, man and other aquatic organisms that are the chief consumer.

    Description: The study was conducted to determine the toxicity of unripe Ackee apple (Blighiasapida) fruit extract on catfish, Clarias gariepinus fingerlings using the 96-hour bioassay under laboratory condition. The LC50 was determined graphically as 3.00ppt. Mean mortality was 0, 40, 50, 70 and 80% in the concentrations of 0, 3.33, 3.47,3.60 and 3.73ppt. Statistical analysis of the results showed that there were significant differences (P〈0.05) on the effect of concentration. Mortality increased with increase in concentration of toxicant and duration of exposure. Clarias gariepinus showed erratic swimming pattern, loss of reflex which increased with increase in concentration. Histopathological changes were revealed in the gills, skin and heart of the fish. The gill structure was altered and there were moderate mucosal erosion. There were several lymphoid aggregations with fibrous connective tissue at the dermal and epidermal areas in the skin. The heart myofibre were diffusely disintegrated with edema between bundles.

    Description: Globally, aquatic ecosystems are highly polluted with heavy metals from anthropogenic and terrigenous sources. The objectives of this study, is to portray the use of EDXRF for the analysis of heavy metal pollution in Clarias gariepinus. C. gariepinus were collected from Dumba, Lake Chad, Nigerian sector and analyzed with EDXRF with 〈sup〉109〈/sup〉Cd as excitation source of the samples. The concentrations of Cadmium, Chromium, Copper, Manganese, Iron, Lead and Zinc (Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Fe, Pb and Zn) in mg/kg were determined in C. gariepinus and were compared with World Health Organization (WHO, 1985) and Federal Environmental Protection Agency (FEPA, 2003) to ascertain the level of Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Fe, Pb and Zn in C. gariepinus from Dumba. The results indicated that C. gariepinus is polluted with Cr, Cu, Mn, and Pb when compared with permissible limit of WHO, 1985 and FEPA, 2003. Therefore, the consumption of C. gariepinus from Dumba may pose a health risk.

    Description: Blood analysis is important in fish health investigation and may be influenced by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. However difficulties exist in the use of blood analysis in the investigation of fish health due to the paucity of species specific, gender and age based reliable references. The current study therefore aims to determine some blood parameters in order to provide reliable references for dry season of the normal condition values of C. gariepinus, a widely cultured fish in Nigeria. This study involved random sampling of 900 C. gariepinus aged 4, 5 and 6 months from earthen pond for three years. Data obtained for blood parameters using standard method were analyzed using descriptive statistic, students'-test, one-way ANOVA level of significant set at p ~,0.05. Results showed the female had significantly (p ~,0.001) higher values than the males for each age bracket and the values increased sig nificantly (p 0~,.05) with increased in PCV. hemoglobin, RBC, WBC, total protein, potassium, sodium, Creatinine, ALT, AST and glucose. The females and males values at 4, 5 and 6 months old were PCV (32.14 ~c 0.19% vs 26.72 ~c 1.l2; 36.45 ~c 1.39% vs 32.33 ~c 1.46%; 40.83 ~c 0. 73% vs 35.01 ~c 0.08%.), total protein (3.98 ~c 0.16g/l vs 3.49 ~c 0.18g/l; 4.45 ~c 0.10g/l vs 4.33 ~c 0.04g/l). Lymphocytes, neutrophils, mono cytes and ESR values showed no stable trend in gender differences with increased age. In both the females and the males, lymphocytes decreased significantly (p ~,0.05) while neutrophils and monocytes increased significantly (p~,0.05) with increased age. ESR decreased significantly (P~, 0.05) in the males and non-significantly in the females with increase in age. It is hoped that these values obtained would serve as a reliable reference to enhance an appropriate intervention in the culture of C. gariepinus aged 4. 5 and 6 months in earthen pond which may be extrapolated for use in other culture systems.

    Description: A cross-sectional study was conducted in four (4) different production systems in Lagos and Ogun States of South Western Nigeria beetween December,2012 and May 2013 to determine the effect of Culture systems and management practices on prevalence of parasites in the gut of farmed catfish (Clarias gariepinus). Information on pond type, water source, feeding practices and general pond management were also gathered through administration of fish disease sample collection from Water for the examination of physicochemical parameters, was collected from 40 fish ponds comprising earthen, concrete, water recirculatory and poorly managed systems across the two (2) States. Temperature, pH and ammonia were monitored using the recommended range by FAO as standard. Also 160 live farmed catfish, 80 from each state, 20 from five different ponds of each system with a minimum of 4 live fish per system was collected, dissected and examined under the microscope for parasite load of the gut of C. gariepinus. The earthen, concrete and water recirculatory systems had good management practices compared to the poorly managed systems. The observed water physicochemical parameters in ponds with good management were within normal range. Five groups of parasites were observed; Protozoa (Eimeria spp), Cestodes (Bothriocephalus spp., Diphyllodium spp), Monogea (Enterogyrus spp), and copepods (Argasilus spp) and Nematodes (Procamallanus spp). Analysis of variance between location and System showed level of no significance (p〈 0.05). The interaction effect of location (State) and production system on parasite load of C. gariepinus also was not significant (p〉0.05). However interaction hetween Ogun and poorly managed system has the highest number of parasites (11.5), followed by Lagos (7.0). The systems with good management practice had low number of parasites with water recirculatory system recording the least number of parasites (0.5). Analysis of association between temperature, ammonia, and pH in all the cultured systems showed a significant level of correlation (p〈0.05). In this study, poorly managed systems especially where farmed fish received water directly from rivers and streams predispose fish to parasite infection of the gut. Good water quality management and proper fish husbandry techniques will eliminate most parasitic infection and improve on fish production.

    Description: The effects of feeding frequency on feed intake, growth and survival rates were determined in C. gariepinus. Twenty fish per tank (bowl) were stocked in triplicate. They were fed once (1D), thrice (3D) and five times daily (5D) respectively. The 5D group growth rates were observed significantly different (P〈 0.05) from fish fed on 1 (1D) and (3D) feeding frequency. All the treatments containing 1D, 3D and 5D were observed to have significant difference (P〉 0.05) in terms of final weight (FW). There was also a noticeable increased trend in final weight (5D 〉 3D 〉 7D). Feed conversion ratio (FCR) of 3D and 5D treatments were higher than 1 D) treatment (P〈 0.05). According to the results, feeding C. gariepinus 1 time daily (1D) did not influence the growth; however, 5 times daily reduced mortality and improved the feed conversion ratio (FCR) of C. gariepinus.
