    Description: A number of 60 Juveniles of Oreochromis niloticus were stocked and divided into two plastic ponds of 0.90m by 0.60 in dimension respectively with initial total weight of 120g.The juveniles were two months and half old as at the time of collection and they were fed with 4mm of the feeds. Each pond contains thirty Oreochomis niloticus which were fed with local feeds, and coppens feed. After weighing the fishes in the two ponds, there was significant difference in the average weight and length, in which the pond that was fed with coppens has the highest average weight and length of 140g and 15.62cm respectively. The quality of the water was checked by measuring pH, dissolved oxygen and temperature of the water using water aquaculture kit. Model: FF-1 A.CAT No. 2430-0. The mortality rate was 0%, while the survivability rate was 100%.

    Description: The design of pumping station for submersible FLYGT pump 3102 version LL to redress the water supply problem of some ponds in the tidal fish farm of African Regional Aquaculture Centre (ARAC) located in Omuihuechi, Aluu, Rivers State, Nigeria was carried out. Prior to the design baseline study was carried out for the proper sitting of the pumping station. The topographic survey of the area indicated gentle sloping woodland, with the highest and lowest elevations of 11.00 m and 1.00 m respectively. The mean peak heights of water in the supply canal during spring and neap tides ranged from 0.95 to 1.45 m and 0.38 to 0.86 m respectively. The flood tide and ebb tide velocities of supply canal water flow varied from 0.40 to 0.75 m/s and 0.75 to 0.92 m/s respectively. Soil particle size analysis indicated loamy clay and clay soils. The results of pumping station design were 1.80 m (length), 1.30 m (width); 3.60 m (height),0.15 m (thickness), I (cement) : 2 (sand) : 4 (gravel) (concrete mixture ratio) and 12 mm (reinforcement bar). Results of pump characteristic calculation were 0.069 m〈sup〉3〈/sup〉/s (discharge) ,4.02 m/s (pumping velocity), 5.73 m (total dynamic head), 0.82 m (minimum submergence depth), 5.04 KW (pump power)and 0.40 and 0.30 m ( clearances from floor and wall respectively). The results obtained were considered adequate for the purpose of construction of the pumping station for the pump and the procedures adopted will assist in similar design tasks in the development of fish farms in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria and beyond.

    Description: The kilishi of Heterotis niloticus was produced for determination of appropriate slurry formulations for fish kilishi preparation. Thirty six freshly caught samples of H. niloticus with average weight of 306.20 ~c 18.33g, kilishi of this species was prepared with three different slurry formulations of high (F1), medium (F2) and low (F3) proportions of groundnut dough to spice mixture in the ratio of 1.3: 1.0, 1.0: 1.2 and 1.0: 1.8, respectively. Results of proximate composition indicated that kilishi of the H. niloticus prepared with formulation 3 (F3) recorded significantly higher (p〈0.05) protein content (54.22 ~c 0.01 %) and lower lipid content (8.00 ~c 0.00%), despite recording significantly higher (p〈0.05) moisture content (9.93 ~c 0.07%). Sensory score of kilishi of H. niloticus processed with F3 formulation rated significantly higher (p〈0.05) for taste, flavour and general acceptability with mean scores of 5.94 ~c 0.21,5.77 ~c 0.20 and 5.50 ~c 0.22, respectively. It could be concluded that kilishi of H. niloticus prepared with F3 formulation was the most acceptable hence, recommended for use in kilishi production.

    Description: The increase in population coupled with current and escalating extent of soil degradation, water scarcity and climate-related challenges plaguing agricultural productivity in every corner of the world and particularly in Nigeria demands for alternative food techniques, one of them called aquaponics. This paper highlights a new trend in food production techniques for the production of fish and vegetable crops in aquaponics. Aquaponics is experiencing renewed interest worldwide with many small home growers and large operations employing the process as a means of producing sustainable fish and plant crops. The design of this scalable farming system closely mirrors that of recirculating systems in general, with the addition of a hydroponic component and the possible elimination of a separate biofilter and devices for removing fine and dissolved solids. The benefits of aquaponics includes conservation of water resources and plant nutrients, intensive production of fish and reduced operating costs relative to either system in isolation. Aquaponics, without doubt is a practice that is receiving considerable interest due to an ever increasing need for fresh wholesome food and sustainable eco-friendly agricultural practices.

    Description: This paper, fish genetics and breeding in Nigeria addresses the application of genetics and breeding to fish farming with the view to enhanced aquaculture production in Nigeria. This production technique is not limited to the use of conventional breeding programs nor is it necessary to go through the basic developmental steps of selection and isolation that lead to the domestication and diversification of livestock and crops over thousands of years. With modern molecular genetic techniques and induced breeding, it is now possible to develop and create new fish species .

    The role of biotechnology in aquaculture and fisheries development (2021)

    Description: Biotechnology per se is not a panacea for the world's problems of hunger and poverty. However, genetic engineering in particular, offers outstanding potentials to increase the efficiency of animal improvement. Thus, biotechnology could enhance global food production and availability in a sustainable way. Case studies from Egypt and India also demonstrate that highly immune genetically modified fishes, transgenic fishes, chromosome engineering and gene banking are very appropriate for fish farmers and consumers in developing countries. As the entire technology can be packaged into the germ cells of fish, it can easily be integrated into traditional small-holder fish farming systems. Except for a few innovative transfer projects, though, the application of biotechnology until now remains concentrated in the industrialized world. Combined with insufficient own scientific and regulatory capacities, the increasing privatization of international aquacultural and fisheries research and the strengthening of intellectual property rights complicate the access of developing countries to biotechnology. Profound constitutional adjustments are therefore essential to ensure that biotechnology does not bypass the poor.

    Description: The microbial load of four different fish species from five different market locations in Ibadan metropolis were determined using standard microbiological procedures. The bacteria count of fish sampled from Ojo market was the highest while the bacteria count of the fish sample from Bodija market was the lowest. There was no significant difference (p〈0.05) in the microbial load of the fish sampled from various market locations in Ibadan metropolis. Similarly, there was no significant difference (p〉0.05) in the microbial load on various fish species sold in Ibadan metropolis. The isolated bacteria from the study were: E. coli, Salmonella spp, Klebsiella spp, Staphylococcus aureus, Aerosomonas spp, Pseudomonas spp, Vibrio spp, Serratia spp, Chromobacterium spp, Enterobacteria spp and Shigella spp. The fungi count of fish sampled from Omi markets was the highest while the fungi count of the fish sampled from Ojo market was the lowest. The following fungi were however isolated from the study: Aspergillus flavus, Penicillium spp, Fusarium oxysporum, Trrichoderma spp and Ceotrichium albidium. The study shows that reheating may be necessary to destroy or inactivate micro-organisms in smoked fish before consumption.

    Description: An investigation was conducted on the morphometric features and proximate body composition of rocky freshwater prawn, Caridina africana occurring at Erin-Ijesa Waterfalls in Osun State, Nigeria. The adult prawns were collected at the first layer of the Waterfalls using scoop nets and locally fabricated sieves because of the shallow nature of the water body and tiny size of the species. Morphometric features were measured using measuring board and Vernier calipers while the proximate analysis was determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in the laboratory. The morphometric variables placed the species correctly into the Infra order Caridea and family Atyidae because the first and second chelipeds were shorter than the remaining three pairs of walking legs. Male prawns were significantly bigger (p〈0.05). than the females as revealed in the morphometric features. The proximate analysis showed that C. africana is composed of 58.79% protein, 5.42% lipid, 11.56% carbohydrate, 14.7% ash and 0.21 % crude fibre. The micro-nutrient composition included iron, zinc, copper, nickel and cadmium. The values for these nutrients make the study to suggest that C. africana could be a nutritive food bio-material for humans and other livestock nutrition especially the fin-fish aquaculture programme.
