    Description: The purpose of this work is a contribution to the quantitative record of the use of iron by planktonic algae. Preliminary experiments with Chlorella to determine the rate of iron intake in the presence of inorganic sources of iron did not produce the desired result. The crucial point of this work is the investigation of the influence of various external factors on the stability of FeEDTA (FeEDTA = Ferric(III)-compound of ethylene-diamine tetra-acetic acid), since this compound appears to be particularly well-suited as a source of iron for planktonic algae (e.g. TAMIYA et al. 1953). Cultures of Chlorella fusca in a light thermostat were used in experimental research. Methods and results are discussed.

    Description: The reaction of Mn(II) with water-dissolved oxygen, to a higher manganese hydroxide in an alkaline medium, as with the longstanding classic Winkler method, is the first step in the method described here. The assumption for faultless results by the conventional and modified Winkler method is clean water, which contains no organic substances by Mn(III) or Mn(IV). In many cases, however, eg. in river and lake-water tests, it can be seen with the naked eye that after some time the originally brown-coloured precipitate of manganese hydroxide becomes more and more colourless. Oxygen content was analysed in the water samples and evaluated by raising the amount of the leuko-base and giving the corresponding dilution of the colouring matter solution formed still higher oxygen contents can be measured.

    Description: When dissolved in water, compounds of nitrogen and phosphorus ought to contain the basic assimilated food requirements for autotrophic plants and therefore autotrophic algae. This article summarises the occurrence of nitrogen in water, how species of algae utilize nitrogen and phosphorus forms for growth and the capacities of algae to adapt to environments of different nutrient wealth. This topic has unquestionable importance not only for the purpose of survival of a species but also in deciding indirectly about the stability of ecosystems.

    Description: The proximate composition and amino acids assay of smoked Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus were determined using standard procedures. The mean proximate composition of Oreochromis niloticus are 8.9% moisture, 16.00% lipids, 5.6% ash, 44.5% crude protein, 0.42% crude fiber and 24.9% NFE while Clarias gariepinus has 8.19% moisture, 15.55% lipids, 4.725 ash, 40.46% crude protein, 0.50% crude fiber and 30.58% NFE. There is therefore a nutrient variation between the 2 species of fish Oreochromis niloticus has higher crude protein, lipids, moisture and ash content than Clarias gariepinus.The amino acids profile shows that both fishes have 17 amino acids. Apart from Tryptophan, the following essential amino acids Histidine, Methionine, Threonine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Valine and Phenylalanine are present in both fish. Oreochromis niloticus however has higher quantities of the essential amino acids except for Histidine than Clarias gariepinus

    Description: The evaluation of Cr. Cu, Mn, Fe, Ni, Zn,As and Pb concentrations in Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus from Lake Geriyo Yola,Adamawa, Nigeria using X - ray fluorescence (XRF) technique is discussed. The analytical samples are irradiated with high energy electrons of 109Cd to produce fluorescent X-rays was produced which passes to the Silicon-lithium detector through Mo target as a source of monochromatic X-rays. The spectrum of energy generated on the detector was processed by a Multi- Channel Analyzer to obtain analytical data. The intensity of the fluorescent X-rays on the detector is proportional to the concentration of the individual element of interest in the sample. This method can identify up to 30 or more elements at the same time. The results showed varying levels of heavy metals in the fishes. The concentrations of Cr, Mn, Cu, and Ni in the fishes were much higher than WHO and PEPA maximum permissible limits, while the concentrations of Zn and Pb were lower than the standards. The results suggest that the lake is polluted with Cr, Mn, Cu and Ni and the consumption of fishes of the lake is life threatening to man.

    Description: Tilapia guineensis eggs were spawned and hatched in different salinities (17, 12, 7, 5, 2 and 0) ppt. The study was conducted in eight replicates. The aim of the investigation was to ascertain disparity in hatching size of Tilapia guineensis attributable to salinity. Immediately hatching was observed, body weight of five hatchlings in each replicate was individually weighed in milligramme. The individual total length of the five hatchlings was also measured in millimeter. The height of the yolk sac larva was determined with micro-metre screw gauge graduated in millimeter from the top of the yolk sac to the dorsal region of the larva. Data obtained were used to calculate yolk sac volume. Significant differences (P〈0.01) were observed in body weight and total length of larvae hatched in different salinities. The heaviest and longest larvae were hatched in 12 ppt saline water. The yolk sac volume of larvae hatched in lower salinities were significantly higher (P〈0.01) than the yolk sac volume of larvae hatched in higher salinities. The smallest yolk sac volume was recorded in 12ppt saline water. Our findings show that salinity could be manipulated for economic production of heavier seeds of Tilapia.

    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.

    Description: One of the priority research projects of the Nigerian Institute for Oceanography and Marine Research (NIOMR) is broodstock development and mass propagation of silver catfish, Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus of which the broodstock is naturally abundant in New Gala River. Selected physical characteristics and water physico-chemical parameters of the upper reach of the New Calabar River at Aluu were investigated. The highest depth value of 9.20 m was recorded in the middle of the river. The width of the river measured during spring high tide and low tide were 174 m and 110 m respectively. The cross-sectional area and average flow velocity of the river were 797.13 m2 and 0.374 m/s respectively. The discharge of the river was computed as 298.13m3/s. The river water was acidic most of the period (Hydrogen ion concentration, pH: 5.12 to 7.43), with low total alkalinity values (4.00 to 12.00 mgCaCO3/L) and low total hardness values (11.5 to 51.2 mgCaCO3/L) which indicate that the river water is black and soft. There was significant (p~,0.05) seasonal variation in temperature (23.1 to 31.7~'C\}, Secchi transparency (9.30 to 19.00 cm), total hardness (11.5 to 51.2 mgCaCO3/L), dissolved oxygen (5.20 to 7.50 mg/L) and dissolved oxygen deficit (0.02 to 2.95mg/L). These results are useful for several stake holders who use the river as a sink for trade wastes, as source of water for fish farming, as source of broodstocks of Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus, as raw water for water treatment plants, and as means of transportation of industrial materials.

    Description: Eight month physicochemical study of Dadin Kowa Dam was carried out forthnightly from July, 2011 to february 2012. Air temperature ranged from 18.25~'C ~c 28~'C ~c 0.50 to 28~'C ~c 2.16. Water tmperature ranged from 18.75~'C ~c 2.21. Transparency ranged from 11.00cm ~c 1.83 to 29.63 cm ~c ~c 2.14. Conductivity ranged from 13.00~Ks/cm ~c 13.33 to 41.38~Ks/cm ~c 5.54. Hydrogen ion (pH) ranged from 6.69 ~c 1.03 to 8.39 ~c 1.17. Dissolved oxygen ranged from 6.39mg/l ~c 1.03 to 10.14mg/l ~c 1.17. Total alkalinity ranged from o.69mg/l ~c 0.38 1.34mb/l ~c 0.02. Total ammonia ranged from 0.20mg/l ~c 0.027 to 0.83mg/l ~c 0.05. There were various levels of correlation between these parameters. There was no significant difference between both sites and months (p〉0.05) of all the parameters except total nitrogen which show a significant difference between the sites (p〈0.05) and transparency also shows a significance between the months (p〈0.05). All physicochemical parameters were almost within the tolerable limits for supporting aquatic life.

    Description: This study looked into the physicochemical and bacteriological investigation of fish and water in Aiba Reservoir. Water and fish samples collected were studied to assess their bacteriological and physicochemical characteristics and their suitability for domestic purposes. Structural questionnaires were administered to the fishermen around the reservoir and experiments were carried out in the laboratory to analyze the samples. The results showed that the total viable bacteria count was high(1.02 x 105 cfu/ml) while few Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli occurred insignificantly. The population of S. aureus and E. coli in the fish gills, liver and tissue were insignificant. The results obtained from the physicochemical analysis of the water samples showed that the reservoir has optimum water temperature of 29degreesC ~c 0.25, a pH of 7.70 ~c 0.20, dissolved Oxygen level of 7.20mgO2/1 ~c 0.20 and total hardness of 45.00 mg/ICaC03 ~c 1.05. The microbial load in the fish sample is higher than that in the water sample. Further strict hygienic measures and surveillance is recommended so as to improve the water quality and to avoid deleterious effects on the health of the Iwo inhabitants and its neighboring communities who also benefit from the reservoir.

    Description: Comparative primary production in Little Stream Farms, near Uyo was investigated in relation to physico-chemical parameters of the adjacent perennial stream and the fish ponds. Except for temperature, which showed the same values for both stations, physico-chemical variables generally showed significant difference (P〈O.05) between the pond water and the adjacent stream. Values of silicates, Turbidity (NTU), Secchi Disc Transparency and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) exhibited significantly variable trends (P〈O.05), especially in the stream water, in response to the commercial sand dredging activities upstream from the fann location. Lowest value of stream transparency (O.1M) recorded was during the peak of the sand dredging, whereas the stream water showed absolute transparency in the absence of the dredging. The water quality parameters also exhibited a general trend of significant seasonal variation (P〈O.05). Five phytoplankton families: Bacillariophyceae, Chlorophyceae, Cyanobacteria, Euglenophyceae and Dinophyceae occurred in the ponds, while three families, Bacillariophyceae, Chlorophyceae and Cyanobacteria occurred in the stream. Bacillariophyceae showed the highest relative abundance in both stations A and B.

    Description: The physico-chemical parameters of Lake Alau were monitored for four months to assess the water quality. Parameters such as temperature, transparency, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, Ca, P, etc were studied in five stations (A, B, C, D and E). Water samples were collected monthly from 8:00 to l2:00noon, for four months (July - October 2008, wet season) and analysed. The physico-chemical parameters were within the ranges of unpolluted water bodies. Variation occurs in almost all the months of the study. Significant difference (P〈0.05) occurred in pH, transparency and Ca among the stations, and insignificant difference (P〉0.05) in temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, Mg and P. These variations may be due to effects of fertilizer application, herbicides and insecticides in irrigated farms around the Lake.

    Description: Study of some Physico-chemical parameters and fish species composition of Doma Darn was carried out between the month of August 2012. Fishing communities along the dam were selected at sampling stations and collection of fish species. The values of physico-parameters obtained for stations were in the range of 28.10-92 m for depth, 27.70-28.48~'for temperature, 7.03-7.64 for PH, 7.23-7.64mg/l for dissolved oxygen (DO), 30.08-31.75 ntu for turbidity, 94.64-105.17mg/l for alkalinity and 79.17-80.58mg/l for total hardness. The result indicated that there was significant difference (p〈0.5)for depth, temperature turbidity and alkalinity, while there was no significant difference (p〈0.05) for DO, pH and water hardness among the stations. The result of these parameters among the duration shows that there was significant different (p〈0.05) in all the parameters except pH. The study revealed that there were twenty-five (25) fish species belonging to 12 families in the dam. The family Cichlidae and Mochokidae and Bagridae which has three each, While the family, Polypteridae, Channidae, Centropomidae, flepsetidae and Protopteridae has the lowest number of one (1) each. The overall result revealed that the Phvsico-chemical parameters were mostly influenced by duration and not much by stations; and parametersoaram measured were within the recommended water quality requirement for growth and survival of aquatic organisms.
