    Beschreibung: 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

    Beschreibung: Sixteen (16) weeks feeding trial in a randomized design with three replicates was conducted to study the response of 180 Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings to baobab pulp as a source of vitamin C. They were fed a basal diet without supplemental vitamin C in the first 2 weeks of conditioning to deplete some stored acrobate. Diets supplemented with 1008 mgascorbyl-2-monophosphate Mg2+ (AMP) kg-1 diet (diet 1); 84g baobab pulp kg-1 (diet 2) and 168g baobab pulp kg"1 diet (diet 3) were evaluated. There was no significant difference (P〉0.05) in terms of weight gain, feed efficiency ratio, protein efficiency ratio, specific growth rate and survival between the groups fed diets 1 and 3. There was a significant difference between the groups fed diet 2 and either of the other diets. Total ascorbate concentration of the liver was significantly (P〈0.05) higher in the groups fed diet 3. The crude protein content of the final fish was significantly (P〈0. 05) higher in the groups fed diet supplemented with AMP. Interestingly none of the groups exhibited the characteristic symptoms of vitamin C deficiency. The results of this experiment suggest that Oreochromis niloticus was able to obtain vitamin C from the baobab pulp and tend to recommend baobab pulp at a level not less than 168g kg-1 diet in the nutrition of Oreochromis niloticus based on the condition of this study.

    Beschreibung: The implications of the abattoir effluents discharge into the Lower Ogun River in Isheri-Olofin area on the abundance of three African fresh water prawns: Macrobrachium vollenhovenii, M macrobrachion and M. felicinum were assessed. Monthly prawn collections were undertaken using a scooping bag net with 0.05mm mesh size at three stations with 100m intervals in each of Ishasi (upstream) and Isheri-Olofin (downstream) areas of the river for 24months (January, 2006-December, 2007). For the 24month period, the upstream (pooled data from stations 1,2 and 3) had M. vollenhovenii of total and mean density of 27,938.33 prawn/m2 and 1164.60prawn/m2 1131.04 respectively, while total and mean M. vollenhovenii density of 5,815.43prawn/m2 and 243.81 prawn/m2 231.45 were obtained in the downstream (pooled stations 4, Sand 6 data). T-test showed the entire upstream to have significantly higher M. vollenhovenii density than the entire downstream (p〈0.05). The entire upstream had higher M. macrobrachium total and monthly mean density (19,092prawn/m and 816.44prawn/m2 1,354.28) than the entire downstream (6,384.47prwn/m2 and 266.02m2524.94) (p〈0.05). Also, significantly higher total and monthly mean density of M felicinum were obtained upstream (20,9S6.S0prawn/m2 and 873.46prawn/m21615.06) than downstream (10,9668.11prawn/m2 and 461.16prawn/m2975.19) (p〈0.05). The significance of the decline in abundance of each of the three Macrobrachium prawn species in the downstream area was discussed.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: Heterobranchus longifilis juveniles (93.42 - 147.77g) used for this study were product of an indoor experiment in glass aquaria transferred to outdoor tanks. This study is therefore, a continuation of the indoor study using the same feed for the fish outdoors for 230 days. They were stocked in ten concrete tanks, of sizes 2m X 2m. The fish were stocked according to the number harvested from the indoor experiment for each treatment. The experimental diets were prepared with fish meal, soybean, groundnut cake, wheat offal, yeast, premix, starch, vitamin C and Vitamin B-complex to meet the requirement of H. longifilis. The analyzed crude protein in each diet was 42.56%, 43.32%, 4369%,43.86% and 43.98%. There was significant variation (p〈0.05) in the Mean Final Weight (MFW), Mean Weight Gain (MWG), Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER), Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and Percentage Survival (PS). The survival of the fish was highest with the fish fed 2g yeast/I00g of diet and this was not significantly different from fish fed 1g yeast/ 100g diet. The cost of production of one kilogram of fish using varying levels of S. cerevisiae in diets varied significantly (p〈0.05).

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: A study was conducted on commercially important fish species of heavy metals in water bodies, The primary objectives were to find out the amount of heavy metals concentration in the fish species, sediments and water samples at the deep and shallow part of the river, to determine the toxicity and relationship between the collected samples and the rate at which it pollutes the water. Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) evaluate their wholesomeness for human consumption. Four heavy metals (Lead, Cadmium, Copper and Zinc) were analysed and only Copper and Zinc were found to be present in the digested samples. The concentration of Copper in the fish (flesh) is 0.09mg/l and that of Zinc is 0.25mg/l. In the bone samples, Copper was found to have 0.17mg/l and Zinc to be 0.22mg/l. In the water samples analyzed, the concentration of Copper is 0.035mg/1 while that of Zinc is 0.047mg/l. In the sediment sample, the amount of Copper is 310.0mg/kg while that of Zinc is 20.50.0mg/kg. This however signifies that the fish species in the Ogun River as well as the water is suitable for consumption which was found to be less than the World Health Organization (WHO's) maximum recommended acceptable limits in the food.

    Beschreibung: Twelve weeks feeding trial was conducted to determine the effects of different dietary lipid sources on the hematological changes in Clarias gariepinus juveniles. Six (6) iso-nitroginous diets were formulated at 45% CP and fed to triplicate groups of 15 juveniles. The feed contained (Palm Seed Oil (PSO), Ugwu Seed (USO), Soya Bean Oil (SBO), Almond Seed Oil (ASO), Mixture Of All the vegetable oil + the fish oil (MOA) and Cod Liver Oil (CLO) which is the control. The oils were added at 5% inclusion level respectively. Fish of mean weight 22.83 ~c 0.30g were fed these experimental diets in triplicate groups. The hematological analyses of fish showed that red blood cell, white blood cell, Erythrocyte sedimentation rate ( ESR), Mean cell volume (MCV), Mean cell Haemoglobin (MCH) and packed cell volume were not significantly different (p〈0.05), but haemoglobin concentration and Mean cell haemologlobin concentration (MCHC) were significantly different (p〉0.05). The present study showed that PSO, USO, ASO, SBO and MOA can effectively replace cod liver oil without compromising the health of African catfish, Clarias gariepinus.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: Aquaculture industry in the last five decades has grown at an unprecedented rate (Average growth of 3.2 percent per year) stimulated by the increased demand for fish and fishery products as global population awareness of fish as a health food increased and the population from capture fisheries becomes almost static. In the light of the noticeable expansion, this review paper focuses on the deleterious effect of many aquaculture practices which includes; degradation of terrestrial environments, pollution from chemical as well as waste and nutrient loading, diseases to mention but a few. Measures are proffered to reduce the negative impact of Aquaculture on the environment. The efforts of the National Environmental Standards and Regulation Enforcement Agencies (NESREA) as it concerns EIA should be broadened to ensure that small aquaculture ventures along the coastline and within inland water bodies be considered to avoid environmental hazards.

    Beschreibung: This study was conducted to evaluate the suitability of soaked Bauhinia monandra (Kutz) seed as alternative protein source for Clarias gariepinus and to determine cost of feed compounded. The proximate analysis of the diet and carcass composition of fish (crude protein, crude fibre, ash, moisture content and lipid were determined using AOAC (1980). Data for each parameter were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) while means of various results were compared at 5% level of significance. A preliminary study was conducted to determine the best processing method that reduced anti-nutrients to the minimum level without impairing nutrients composition. Boiled, toasted and soaked seeds were used. Bauhinia seeds soaked for 96 hours had least concentration of anti-nutrients. The experimental diets was formulated to contain soaked Bauhinia seed meal (SBSM) at levels of 25%, 50% and 75% inclusion (Diets 2, 3 and 4 respectively) with two diets acting as control (Diets 1 and 5). All diets were isonitrogenous (40% crude protein) and isocaloric (3212kcal/kg). A 12 weeks feeding trial was conducted in juveniles which were randomly distributed into 24 improvised non-recirculatory and semi-flow through indoor plastic tanks (52cm X 34cm X 33. 5cm) at a stocking rate of 10 fish per tank and three (3) replicates per treatment. The experimental design was complete randomized. The fish were fed at 5% body weight, twice daily. Diets with higher inclusion levels of SBSM (diets 3 and 4) significantly depressed growth formance of fish. The variations observed in the SGR, FCR, FER and PER were associated with the anti-nutrients present in the diets, these parameters reduced with increasing levels of SBSM in the diets of fish. Based on the relative cost of diets per unit eight gain and protein gain, diet 2 (25% SBSM) was most economical. The results suggested that SBSM can be used to substitute up to 25% levels of dietary protein in C. gariepinus juveniles without significant reduction in growth.

    Beschreibung: Brackish water Fish Farming is a type of aquaculture that is practiced in the coastal areas. This involves culture of quality fin and shell fishes that are found in the creeks, lagoons and estuaries. It has a capacity and potential of bridging the wide gap between fish demand and supply in these areas. The development of brackish water aquaculture in Niger Delta started many decades ago, its growth and expansion since then has been limited, unlike freshwater aquaculture which has recorded phenomenal growth in recent years. This paper reviews the constraints hindering the effectiveness of the existing conditions of brackish water aquaculture production and also examines the possible solutions to these constraints, for its growth and expansion in the coastal areas of Niger Delta.

    Beschreibung: Utilization of agricultural waste- melon shell by hybrid catfish (heteroclarias) 3.92 ~c 0.05g was investigated in this research. Five isonitrogenous diets containing 40% crude protein with inclusion levels of melon shell meal (MSM) at 0%,25%,50%, 75% and 100% in replacement of maize meal was fed to heteroclarias species for 56.days. The results indicated significant differences (P〈0.05) in the growth parameters and body compositions. Diet containing 50% melon shell meal gave a significantly high mean weight gain, specific growth rate, protein efficiency ratio, apparent protein utilization and low feed conversion ratio respectively. The experiment supported the inclusion of melon shell meal up to 50% without detrimental effects on the growth of the fish.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: This study investigates the use of Luffa cylindrica seed meal as soybean replacer in the diet of Clarias gariepinus. Five isonitrogenous diets containing soybean meal which was replaced by Luffa cylindrica at a rate of 0, 15,30,45 and 60% were made. The diets without Luffa cylindrical seed meal served as the control. Experimental diets were assigned randomly to the tanks and each group of fish was fed 5% body weight in equal proportion per day. The fish fed diet 1 had the highest incidence of cost, while the fish fed diet 4 had the lowest incidence of cost. There was no significant difference (P〉0.05) in the incidence of cost of producing 1kg fish with the different dietary treatments. The fish fed at diet 4 had the highest profit, while the fish fed at diet 1 had the lowest profit. There was no significant difference (P〉0.05) in the profit margin of producing 1kg fish with the different dietary treatments. The incidence of cost showed that it was cheaper to produce 1kg of fish with Luffa cylindrical seed meal because feeding the fish with the diet (control and tests diets) left some profit margin.

    Beschreibung: A 56-day feeding trial to investigate the effects of feeding varying levels of substituted Soybeam meal (SBL) with Pigeon pea seed meal (PSM) on the performance and carcass characteristics of Clarias gariepinus was conducted. Five isonitrogenous 40% crude protein diets were formulated where PSM Clarias gariepinus (15.74 ~c 1.22g) stocked at 15 fish/50 litres tanks were fed diets in triplicates twice daily to satiation and weight changes recorded weekly. Fish fed diet with 25% and 100% PSM inclusion gave the highest mean weight gain of 25.47g and 23.34g respectively (P〉0.05). There were no significant difference (P〉0.05) among the weight gain of other treatments. Fish fed diet containing 0% SBM and 100% PSM gave the highest gross food conversion efficiency and percentage weight gain of 43.50g and 12.l8g while fish fed diet containing 50% SBM and 50% PSM had the lowest of 35.67 and 9.99 respectively with no significant changes compared with other treatments. For good growth, fish farmers are advised to consider Pigeon pea seed meal either as a partial (25%) or total replacement (100%) for soybean meal in the diet of Clarias gariepinus juveniles.

    Beschreibung: Mudcatfish (Heterobranchus longifilis) juveniles (body weight 61.60-83.05g, length 204.43 ~c 3.07 - 229.53 ~c 3.65mm) were fed with diet containing crude protein (CP) levels of 30%,35% and 40% for 10 weeks, using fishmeal as a protein source. Growth performance and feed utilization were investigated. Fish were raised in plastic aquaria of dimension 46 x 38 x 28cm3 at a temperature range of 26.0-29.0~'C, pH value of 6.6-7.4 and dissolved oxygen of 3.5-5.1 mg/1. The highest increase in body weight (23.30 ~c 4.30g) and specific growth rate (0.68 ~c 0.02% day-1) were achieved with Diet 2 (35%CP). The condition factor ranged 0.60 ~c 0.009- 0.66 ~c 0.005 and fish survival was 100% for all diets. Protein efficiency ratio (2.37 ~c 0.35) was also significantly better with 35% CP (p〈0.001). Diets 1(30% CP) and 2 (40% CP) gave lower performances. The observations in this study suggest that a 35% high quality protein diet will probably provide the needed protein requirement for H.longifilis juveniles.

    Beschreibung: The effectiveness of plant extracts (PE) and Methyltestosterone (MI) for male production and growth promotion in Oreochromis niloticus were studied in concrete tanks for 60 days. Fry were fed at two feeding levels, initially 20% and later 10% of body weight dally with diet treated with 60mg/kg. Tilapia treated with MT for 60 days attained an average weight of 10.13~c1.32g, those treated with PE attained an average weight of 11.15~c0.55g compared to 6.95~c0.32g for untreated (control) fish reared under similar conditions. The percentage of males among the untreated tilapia was 39.28%, 68.75% for PE fed tilapia, more than 88.88% of the tilapia in MT treatment group were male. The experiments demonstrated that the anabolic and sex reversal effects of MT on tilapia are proportional to the duration of treatment and quantity of hormone administered Histological sections of the testes of fry fed MT and P E diets showed deformed, clustered, swollen nuclei. Higher concentrations of MT and PE can be used to control prolific breeding and increase yield in fish production.

    Beschreibung: Supplies of marine fish oil (FO) are limited and continued growth in aquaculture production dictates that substitutes must be found that do not compromise fish health and growth. This study investigated the suitability of palm oil (PO) as a replacement for FO (cod liver oil) in diets of H longifilis. Triplicate groups of H longifilis fingerlings were fed five practical-type diets in which the added lipid was either 100% FO and 0% PO; 75% FO and 25% PO; 50% FO and 50% PO; 25% FO and 75% PO; or 0% FO and 100% PO for 8 weeks. There were no significant effects of diet on growth rate or feed conversion ratio. Lipid deposition was highest in the liver of fish fed 100% PO. No significant differences were observed between dietary treatments for moisture, protein and ash content in H. longifilis fingerlings. This study suggests that PO can be used successfully as a substitute for cod liver oil in diets for H. longifilis.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: The concentration of trace metals: Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb), magnesium (Mn), Nickel (Ni) and Zinc (Zn) were determined in water, sediment and fish tissues (S. melanotheron) collected from Elechi creek in Port Harcourt, Nigeria between October and November, 2010. The overall mean concentrations of the trace metals (Mg/g dry weight) in all combined samples ranged from 0.06-0.24 (Cd), 0.59-2.39 (Pb), 0.08-1.15 (Mn), 0.15-0.48 (Ni) and 0.18-7.04 (Zn) respectively. The concentration of the trace metals in water, fish and sediments were in the following order: Pb 〉Ni 〉Zn〉Cd 〉Mn; Zn〉Pb 〉Mn〉Ni 〉Cd and Zn〉 Pb〉Mn〉Ni〉Cd respectively. Except in water, Zinc had the highest value while cadmium had the lowest value. Mn concentration in fish tissue was greater than WHO/FAO certified values. Correlation coefficients between pairs of metals concentration show that all metals positively correlate except Cadmium and Nickel. Elechi creek is not heavily burdened with metals, but aquatic environment should be monitored periodically to avoid excessive intake of trace metals by human.

    Beschreibung: 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.

    Beschreibung: Non-conventional hormone, Androgenic Steroid (mesterolone) was prepared and incorporated (using ethanol) at various concentration of 0mg, 30mg, 40mg, 50mg, 60mg each in 0.2kg of fish meal. The six levels were replicated 3 times in plastic tanks. The fish meal incorporated with hormone (mesterolone) were fed as first food to 7 -day old fry of Oreochromis niloticus for 28 days after which the tilapia fry were fed on ordinary fishmeal for another 8 weeks. At the 9th and 12th weeks and after feeding with the hormone, the number of survivals and the weights gained were recorded! After the 12week, the males and females were separated using hand-magnifying lens. The economic viability of all male production using non-conventional hormone (mesterolone) was calculated. Hormone fed to O. niloticus was found to have no significant effect (P〉0. 05) on the survival and the mean weight gain of the O. niloticus. But the hormone fed had great influence on the female: male ratio i.e. treatment difference was highly significant (P〈0.01). Tilapia fry fed with 40mg/0.2kg feed was found to have the largest percentage of males 97% while those fed with 30mg/0.2kg, 50mg/0.2kg, 60mg/0.2kg and 70mg/0.2kg had 51%,91%,86%,89%, and 80% males respectively.

    Beschreibung: A study was carried out on the response of Heterobranchus longifilis to the replacement of fish meal with 40% of groundnut cake in six experimental diets with varying protein levels (26.13%, 30.88%, 34.87%, 39.28%, 44.19% and 50.76%). The highest weight gain (72.46g), specific growth rate (SGR) (2.16), the best food conversion ratio (FCR) (1.91) and gross food conversion efficiency (GCE) (0.016) were recorded for fish fed diet with 50.76% (Diet VI) crude protein (40%groundnutcake and 38.15% fish meal). There was no significant difference (P〉0.05) in the final weight offish fed the various diets. The diet with 44.19% (diet V) crude protein having 40% groundnut cake and 31.81 % fish meal gave a conversion ratio not significantly different (P〉0.05) from fish fed diet VI and so it will be more economical to use this feed with lower fish meal. There was significant variation (P〈0.05) in the SGR and GCE offish fed varying diets. The FCR and GCE followed a similar trend in that diet VI had the best conversion of food. The fish fed 26.13% crude protein (Diet I) which had the poorest growth in this experiment also had the lowest percentage survival (42.67%), fish fed diet III ranked the highest in survival (78.67%). There was no significant variation (P〉0.05) in the survival of fish fed the varying diets. The combination of groundnut cake and fish meal in the diet of H. longifilis that showed increased nutrient density and digestibility for optimal growth was obtained where the percentage groundnut cake/fishmeal was 40/31.81.

    Beschreibung: The growth and survival of Clarias gariepinus larvae with an average length and weight of 6.0mm and 2.57mg respectively were fed commercial dry feed, decysted Artemia or copepods over a twelve day period. Larvae were hatched using the induced hormone technique. After endogenous feeding, 80 larvae were distributed into each of the nine tanks and fed ad libitum thrice a day. The highest growth rate and survival were observed in larva fed with decysted Artemia (p〈0.05). The present study showed that formulated diet may not be a suitable starter diet for Clarias gariepinus larvae.

    Beschreibung: The present study examined the utilization potential of date palm seed (DPS) as feed additive in the diet of African catfish Clarias gariepinus for efficient feed utilization. A total of 150 African catfish (weight ranged from 81.13 to 91.35 g) were divided into five experimental groups. The experiment was conducted for 70 days. Experimental diets were identical in all composition except for the variation in DPS level. Non-inclusion of DPS was used at 0% (control) and other levels are 0.5% (diet 2), 1.0% (diet 3), 1.5% (diet 4) and 2.0% (diet 5). The growth performance and nutrient utilization of African catfish including Weight Gain (WG), Specific Growth Rate (SGR), Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) and Protein Productive Value (PPV) were significantly (p〈0.05) higher than those of fish fed control diets, where DPS supplementation at 1.5% appears to be generally higher than other levels. In the same trend fish fed diets with DPS supplementation produced improved fish carcass values and the haematology of fish was generally better from diets in all DPS fed fish. Overall production performance and subsequent fish quality assessments indicated that the diets containing 1.5% DPS level recorded the best performance in African catfish compared to other levels including the control diet. Based on the result of the present study, it is concluded that date palm seed supplementation positively influenced growth performance and feed utilization of African catfish as well as ensuring their healthy status.

    Beschreibung: The effect of acute toxicity of chicken droppings to fingerlings of Oreochromis niloticus was determined under laboratory conditions using static bioassay for a period of 96 hours. The 96-hrs LC50 was estimated to be 2.19 with upper and lower confident limits of 3.24 and 1.48g/l. Water quality examination revealed a reduction in the level of dissolved oxygen, increase in alkalinity and free carbon dioxide with increase in concentrations of the fertilizer while there were no significant different (P〉0.05) in the ievels of pH and temperature when compared with the control. Fish exposed to higher concentrations of the organic fertilizer became darker in colour with mucous secretion, exhibited erratic swimming and showed signs of respiratory distress before death. Methods and standard doses for subsequent organic fertilizer application in fish ponds for survival and growth are discussed.

    Beschreibung: Proximate composition of Horse radish (Moringa oleifera) Seeds meal was investigated. Standard analytical methods were used to determine the nutritive value; Na and K were estimated using framephotometer, Ca , Mg and P were determined titrimetrically. The results (in g/100g sample) obtained were (7.67%) moisture, (3.56%) ash, (23.75%) crude lipid, (1.16%) fiber, (40.23%) crude protein and (23.50%) carbohydrate. The meal is rich in K (1775mg %), Na (61.23mg %), Ca, Mg and P were 0.33mg%, 0.60mg% and 3.24mg%. Moringa oleifera seed meal could therefore be considered as potential rich sources of nutrient to supplementing plant based diets in aquaculture.

    Beschreibung: This study investigated the levels of lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), Copper (Cu), Chromium (Cr) and Zinc (Zn) in two common edible fish species, Sole, Solea solea and Croaker, Pseudotolithus typus from Makoko and Koko in Lagos and Delta states respectively. Heavy metal contents were determined by air-acetylene flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer after wet digestion of dried and milled samples with 1:1 HN0〈sub〉3〈/sub〉: H〈sub〉2〈/sub〉O〈sub〉2〈/sub〉. Results obtained (~kg/g, dry weight) for Sole in Lagos and Delta states were: Pb (0.330 and 0.149), Cd (0.097 and 0.063), Cu (0.869 and 0.434), Cr (1.184 and 0.826), Zn (7.612 and 7.890); and Croaker: Pb (0.163 and 0.045), Cd (0.115 and 0.029), Cu (0.990 and 0.694), Cr (1.008 and 1.038) and Zn (6.756 and 6.168) for the wet season (April-October); and Pb (0.534 and 0.527), Cd (0.373 and 0.410), Cu (0.437 and 0.556), Cr (0.834 and 0.983), Zn (6.764 and 9.343) for sole and Pb (0.210 and 0.213), Cd (0.264 and 0.307), Cu (0.442 and 0.483), Cr (0.577 and 0.597) and Zn (4.783 and 5.924) for croaker in the wet season (July-October). Significant (P~B 0.05) variations were observed in metal content between fish in terms of species, location and season. Generally, sole had higher metal concentrations than croaker; and metal contents were higher in samples from Lagos compared to Delta, probably due to the contribution of more effluents from industrial, commercial and municipal wastes in Lagos state. Cd and Cr levels in the test species were found to exceed international standards. It is recommended that a programme of continuous monitoring and control of the physical and chemical characteristics of components and food products of Nigeria's coastal zone be incorporated as a management tool for this important ecological zone.

    Beschreibung: The experiment was conducted to evaluate the acute toxic of cypermethrin, a synthetic pyrethroids on juveniles of Clarias gariepinus. The effect was assessed based on the comparism results of haematology and histopathological tissues examinations of control and experimental group exposed to five nominal concentration of cypavest, 10EC Pesticide Preparation (active substance 100mg/l) of cypermethrin in a static non-renewal bioassay for 96 hours. The 96hrs LC50 value of the exposed juveniles was found to be 0.062 mg/1. Fish exhibited progressive loss of balance, respiratory distress, erratic movement and death. Examination of haematology significantly showed higher value (P〈0.001; 0.01) of white blood cell (WBC), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), packed cell volume (PCV), monophilis and heterophilis; a significant reduction (P〈0.001, 0.01) in Red Blood Cell (RBC) and Lymphocyte was obtained as compared to the control. Severe necrosis, haemorrhages vacuolation, congestion and focal interstitial haemorrhages were the stopathological changes in the tissues of gill and liver, thus concluding that cypermethrin is toxic to juveniles of Clarias gariepinus.

    Beschreibung: The effects of crude oil on the population structure of plankton in water samples collected from a fish pond at the African Regional Aquaculture Centre, Aluu, was investigated for a period of four weeks. The samples were analyzed initially for species composition, community structure, population density and water quality. The samples were divided into five different tanks after which crude oil was introduced into the test tanks. The data showed that exposure to crude oil significantly reduced the population density of the plankton, altered the species composition, community structure and some of the water quality variables in the experimental tanks. In the control, pH values dropped from 6.61 to 6.05 in the 1.0 and 2.0ml/L tanks respectively. Oxygen values decreased from 7.5 to 5.78 in the control and to 5.34 and 5.16 in the 1.0 and 2.0ml/L tanks respectively. Temperature values were relatively stable in all the tanks. Exposure to crude oil caused a reduction in the number of phytoplankton genera from 19 to 12 and from 19 to 11 in the 1.0 and 2.0ml/L tanks respectively. Similarly, zooplankton genera decreased from 8 to 5 in the 1.0ml/L tank but increased from 8 to 9 in the 2.0ml/L tank. The genera eliminated by the crude oil include Cosmarium spp, Euglena and Navicula dicephela. The effects of crude oil on plankton therefore are tied to the amount of crude oil spilled.

    Beschreibung: The growth enhancement potential of Mucuna pruriens utilis on the Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), was investigated in eight weeks feeding trials in concrete tanks at the African Regional Aquaculture Centre, Aluu. Three isonitrogenous diets were fed to three sets of fingerlings of the fish with full fat soya bean diet(D1) serving as the Control. The initial average fish weight was 1.45 ~c 0.12 and the final average fish weight was 5.67 ~c 1.46. Crude protein, ash and nitrogen free extract of the carcasses were significantly different (P〉0.05) from the control specimens. The average weight gains were 3.85g, 3.54g and 3.42g for fish fed 'full fat' Soya bean based diet(Control), fermented Mucuna seed diet(D2) and unfermented Mucuna seed diets (D3) respectively. Average apparent food consumed was in the order D2 〉D1 〉 D3. Fish fed fermented Mucuna seed diet (D2) had the highest food conversion ratio of 1.51 followed by fish fed with the control diet (D1) 1.22 and fish fed unfermented Mucuna seed diets (D3) 1.19. Unfermented Mucuna seed diet had the highest food conversion efficiency (0.84) followed by full fat Soya bean based diet(Control) 0.82 and the least was the fermented Mucuna seed diet (0.66). The results of this study indicate that unfermented Mucuna diet can conveniently replace Soya bean based diet without significantly affecting growth.

    Beschreibung: The acute toxic effect of industrial effluents from Agbara Industrial environs of Ologe lagoon was investigated in a static renewable lethal bioassay using fingerlings and Juveniles of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus). Twenty (20) pieces of the fingerlings were stocked per tank and each treatment was in triplicate. Physico-chemical parameters: temperature, pH, Dissolved Oxygen, DO and conductivity in treatment tanks were monitored for 96 hours. Behavioural responses were studied; mortality data recorded, and histopathological analysis was also done. Except for dissolved oxygen, other physico-chemical parameters monitored did not show significant differences (p〉0.05). The lethal bioassay showed that as the concentration of effluent increased, more mortality was recorded; but as the time of exposure increased, mortality reduced. The LC50 obtained at all the different time intervals for C. gariepinus fingerlings in 24,48, 72 and 96 hrs were: 69.45,46.39, 40.81 and 34.03(%). While in juveniles, the values were: 64.52,49.21, 32.50, and 19.63(%) respectively. Abnormal behaviour was observed; they showed repeated darting movement within an hour of introduction, darkening in the eye and on the skin, haemorrhage in the gills, spiral swimming and death. Histopathological examination of the gills and liver of the fishes showed lesions which increased progressively with increasing level of toxicants. Observed changes in the gills were mainly: epithelial lifting, swollen lamellae, necrosis and mass degeneration, fatty and vacuolar degeneration, loss of lamellae and marked disorganization in gill structure and arrangement. In the liver, there were vacoulation, portal congestions, pancreatic necrosis, fatty degeneration and severe disruption of the hepatic cord. Fishes in the control treatments showed no visible lesions throughout the experiments. This information confirms that histopathological alterations are good biomarkers for toxic impact assessment of industrial effluent on fish. Therefore, an indiscriminate discharge of this effluent to surrounding water should be discouraged.

    Beschreibung: The present study was conducted to examine the utilization potential of date palm seed (DPS) as feed additive in the diet of African catfish Clarias gariepinus for improved fed utilization. A total of 150 African catfish (weight ranged from 81.1 to 91.3g) were divided into five experimental groups. The experiment was conducted for 70 days. Experimental diets were identical in all composition except for the variation in DPS inclusion level. Non-inclusion of DPS was used at 0% (control) and other levels are 0.5% (diet 2), 1.0% (diet 3), (diet4) and 2.0% (diet 5). Growth performance and nutrient utilization of African catfish including Weight Gain (WG), Specific Growth Rate (SGR), Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) and Protein Productive Value (PPV) were significantly (P〈0.05) higher than those diets, where DPS supplementation at 1.5% appears to be generally higher than other levels. In the same trend fish fed DPS supplementation produced improved fish carcass values and the haematology of fish was generally better from diets in overall production performance and subsequent fish quality assessments indicated that the diets containing 1.5% DPS level recronded the best performance in fish compared to other levels including the control diet. Based on the result of the present study, it is concluded that date palm seed supplementation positively influenced growth performance and feed utilization of African catfish as well as ensuring their healthy status.

    Beschreibung: An experiment was carried out to determine the effect of blood and fish meal based diets on the feeding rate of tilapia in concrete tank. Two diets formulated at 35% CP, with blood and fish meal as the test ingredients. The diets were fed to tilapia (25/tank, with average initial weight of 7.61g) at 1, 1.5 and 2.5% biomass, in three replicates, once daily, in a 2:3 factorial design. Result showed that under blood meal based diet, average weight gain, gain in total length, relative weight gain and specific growth rate increased from 1 to 1.5% biomass and reduced at 2.5% ( 10.61, 16.75, 14.51g; 1.84, 3.18, 2.86cm; 147.37, 238.42, 147.42%; and 0.61, 0.85, 0.64 %/day), respectively (p〈0.05). Under fish meal based diet, the same parameters increased as feeding rate increased from 1 to 2.5% biomass ( 8.25, 16.55, 29.09g; 2.38, 2.67, 4.35cm; 125.07, 213.79, 408.63% and 0.52,0.82, 1.10%/day), respectively, (p〈0.05). In conclusion, blood meal based diet at 35%CP requires a feeding rate of 1.5% biomass, while fish meal based diet requires at least 2.5% for tilapia production in concrete tanks.
