    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: Changes in water quality caused by industrialization and technological advancement, affect fishery resources. The Warri River like many other water bodies in Niger Delta, Nigeria are experiencing side effects in terms of pollutant build up cum destruction of fishery resources. This study investigated the fish species composition/diversity of the river in comparison to the baseline studies of previous researchers. Nine sampling locations were chosen including, Jeddo, NNPC Jetty, Nigeria ports Authority jetty, Main Warri market, Delta Steel Jetty, Shell Ramp, Udu Bridge/market Ugbolokposo and Agbarho.Fish species were collected from the respective nine Locations monthly for 24 months. Fish were obtained from landings of local fishermen every fortnight with prior arrangement. Highest diversity index of 3.48 occurred at shell Ramp/Globestar, while the least value of 2.63 was recorded at NNPC Jetty. The condition factor of most fish species in the study were above 1.0, though more species were better conditioned in location 1 (Jeddo). The catfish families probably due to their hardy nature were best conditioned of all families represented. Thirty four fish species recorded in this study compared to 91 species obtained in previous works of 1989 -1994 reflects a sharp drop in species diversity.

    Description: The study surveyed the status of fish farming in Rivers State of Nigeria. Structured interview schedule questionnaires were used in sourcing information from 90 fish farmers randomly selected from nine local government area, with three local government each drawn from each agricultural zone of the state. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings revealed that majority (34.4%) of the fish farmers were male and between the age range of 41-50 years. 31.1% of fish farmers cultured their fish in concrete fish tanks. The total mean annual production of fishes were 41,000 metric tons, 38.9% of fish farmers practiced integrated fish farming, 72.2% of the farmers practice only fish production; 58.9% of farmers sourced their information from friends/fellow farmers. In terms of water supply, 40.0% of farmers sourced their water supply from borehole, 36.6% use tilapia species as their fingerlings, 38.9% of farmers sourced their fingerlings from government hatchery 15.2% of farmers indicated that they suffer loss of tilapia, 54.4% farmers use partial harvest, 92.6% of farmers indicated irregular electricity supply as a major constraints to fish production. In order to facilitate the efficient operation of fish farming in the study area, technical advice on pond construction and preparation, species selection and supply for stocking purposes and collection of relevant data on aquaculture will help in the improvement of fish farming in the study area.

    Description: A study was conducted on the old NIFFR smoking kiln in order to improve on it. The parameters used to determine the smoking efficiency include the loss in weight of the fish samples, temperature and the time taken to properly smoke the fish using fire wood as smoking fuel. The smoking kiln was tested by smoking three different species of fish: Clarias gariepinus, Oreochromies niloticus, Synodontis membranecious over a period of two hours. The modified smoking kiln was discovered to perform faster. Its advantage over the already existing one is that it is faster in smoking fish to a regular golden brown colour. The temperature of the heat supplied was quite higher about 100~'C to 120~'C than the commonly used drum oven. The smoking kiln has the average oroduction cost of No.90,000.

    Description: Completely randomized design with duplicate groups were used to study the growth performance of 400 fingerlings of Clarias gariepinus in 2m x 2m x 1m concrete tanks in an out-door hatchery complex of National Institute for Freshwater Fisheries Research (NIFFR), New Bussa, Niger State, Nigeria. Graded levels (0, 1,2,3 or 4) % of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was included into a 40% crude protein (C.P) NIFFR floating basal diet and fed to Clarias gariepinus in tanks for 16 weeks and 35% in the last 4 weeks. This was to determine the optimum level of supplemental yeast inclusion as a floater additive into diets of C. gariepinus and to quantify feed and its cost for raising a kilogram of the fish fed diets. The experiment was geared towards development of cost effective standard floating feed for Clarias gariepinus. There was no significant difference in weight gain (WG), feed consumed (FC), specific growth rate (SGR), survival, cost of feed consumed (CFC) and palatability test of flesh (P〉0.05) except FCR (P〈0.05) and feed cost per kilogram of fish (P〈0.05) at the end of 8 and 20 weeks. There was no histopathological defect observed on the fish and fish carcass. It was concluded that 2% or 1 % level of yeast can be included in NIFFR floating feed with the assurance of producing a kilogram of C. gariepinus with a feed of N300.00 under good management practices based on ingredient ruling price at the time of this study and this might be capable of increasing farmer's income in fish production.

    Description: A feeding trial was conducted to determine the effect of biscuit waste meal on the growth performance and utilization of Clarias gariepinus juveniles. A total of 300 juveniles of average weight 8.85g were randomly divided into 5 Treatments, each with three replicates. Twenty juveniles were distributed into fifteen happas (0.7m3) and each happa was suspended to 3/4 of its volume using kuralon ropes carefully tied round the bamboo poles across the concrete tanks. Five diets containing 40% crude protein were formulated in which maize was replaced with biscuit waste meal at Treatment diet 1 (TD1) 0%, 25% (TD2), 50% (TD3), 75% (TD4), 100% (TD5) levels.The juveniles were fed at 3% body weight per day for 10 weeks. It was recorded at the end of the experiment that biscuit waste was most suitable as an energy supplement when incorporated at 25% replacement (TD2) with maize. TD1 had the highest weight gain followed by TD2, TD3, TD4 and TD5 respectively. There were no significant differences (P〉0.05) in the growth response in TD1 (0%), T0D (25%) and TD3 (50%). It is therefore concluded that biscuit waste meal is a cheap source of non conventional energy source which can be used favorably to replace maize (25% inclusion level) as an energy source in the diets of Clarias gariepinus.

    Description: This study was conducted to determine the effects of dichlorvos ~9 2, 2 - dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate (DDVP)~0 on the growth of Clarias gariepinus fingerlings. The experiment was conducted in two phases: the first phase involved the exposure of the fish to different concentrations ~9 0.00 (control), 0.4ppm, 0.5ppm, 0.6ppm, 0.7ppm, 0.8ppm, 0.9ppm, 1.0ppm, 1.1 ppm and 1.2ppm~0 of dichlorvos for four days. The second phase was a recovery process in which the fish that survived from the first phase were introduced into clean, dechlorinated, toxicant-free water and were fed at 3% of their body weight for 12 weeks. The change in weight was measured every fortnight and the feed fed was adjusted to accommodate the change in weight. The highest values for weight gain, percentage weight gain, specific growth rate and average daily weight gain occurred in the control and these values were significantly (p〈0.05) higher than the values of these parameters recorded in the other treatments. The range of values of weight gain, percentage weight gain, specific growth rate and average daily weight gain are 6.76 ~c 3.01-18.45 ~c 8.90g, 69.45 ~c 18.52 - 105.52 ~c 33.67%, 1.54 ~c 0.33 - 2.08 ~c 0.46%/day and 0.48 ~c 0.21 - 1.21 ~c 0.65g respectively. Based on the results of this study, the exposure of fingerlings of Clarias gariepinus to dichlorvos ~9 2, 2- dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate (DDVP)~0 affected the growth of the fish. Therefore, the use of dichlorvos on stored grains should be regulated because uncontrolled usage could cause mortality and impairment of growth in fish if the pesticide gets washed into water bodies inhabited by fish.

    Description: This study focused on the assessment of Terminalia suparba (bark, leave and root) based diet to improve the ovulation of Clarias gariepinus brood stocks. Ten female and ten male brood stocks were obtained from a reputable fishfarm in Ogun State, Nigeria and were fed with the diets for four weeks before the breeding exercise. The latency period observed in treatments 1 to 4 was 4hours 30minutes while the ovulation period in treatment 5 was 8 hours. There was no significant different (P〉0.05) among the means. The brood stocks in Treatment 2 (Root) has the highest fecundity count (2001) while those in Treatment 5 (control) has the least fecundity count (1496). The phytochemical analysis of the plant materials showed the presence of Alkaloids, Tannin, Phenol, Glycoside, Flavonoids, Steroids, Phlobatannin, Saponin, Anthraquinones. The physical and chemical parameters of water observed showed that dissolved oxygen value ranges from 3.28 -4.60, pH 6.5 - 8.5, temperature 28.0 - 28.8 and conductivity 8.9 - 9.20. It is therefore concluded that the inclusion of Terminalia suparba in the feed of Clarias gariepinus broodstock will not only improve ovulation but also reduce the latency period.
