An authoritative 1997 review of the effects of stress on fish in polluted water, research labs and fish farms. The first experiment tested three different stocking density of catfish with average weight of 46.83 g ± 1.62 at a rate Abstract: Experiments were conducted in aquaria tanks (62.5x29.5x30 cm) for a period of 12 weeks to investigate the effect of stocking density on the growth and survival of Clarias gariepinus fingerlings.

Heteroclarias is an inter-specific hybrid of Clarias gariepinus and Heterobranchus bidorsalis which transfer or combine desirable traits of the two species [4-5]. It is farmed mostly in Africa, South America, Asia and China, using extensive and traditional methods as well as intensive and industrial techniques. Afr. The fish were reared using tarpaulin tanks measuring 1m3 in 250 litres of water and was grouped into five densities-9, 18, 38, 75 and 100 fish/m3. stream Genetics, 123, 597-­601. The vigorous growth in aquaculture, which according to FAO now provides half of all fish for human consumption, is attributed to improvement in the state of the fish stock and fisheries management. Overall, highest growth, survival and benefits of fingerlings were obtained at a density of 0.6 million hatchling/ha, which appears to be the most suitable stocking density for rearing of mahseer fingerlings in single-stage nursery system. The growth and survival of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell) fry was investigated at high stocking density.

In this experiment African catfish with initial individual mean weight 0.79±0.1 g were reared at two different stocking densities—5 fish l −1 and 10 fish l −1 in either sheltered or unsheltered tanks with reduced and normal light condition. In order to estimate responses of growth rate and growth hormone of Clarias gariepinus to stocking density, fish (initial weight 30.71 ± 0.89 g) were stocked in 120-L tanks at densities of 35, 65, 95, and 125 kg/m3 for 60 days.

Chapter 6 Photoperiod affects behaviour, stress parameters and growth in the African catfish (Clarias gariepinus). INTRODUCTION It enriches the diet with animal protein and essential amino acids. It was found that C. lazera is highly suitable for high density, intensive aquaculture, because of its rapid growth and efficient feed utilization, and its findings complied with or supported related findings in the literature and could be interpreted biologically. The fingerlings (average weight of 0.60 g) were stocked in densities of 5, 10 and 15 fish per tank in duplicate and were fed with a diet containing 35% crude protein diet at 5% body weight . During the peak of the season, massive induced breeding from mature African catfish C. gariepinus broodstocks (1750±0.30 g) were carried-out using Ovaprim® at 0.5 mL kg–1 of fish. The fish of each stocking density were fed Feeding African catfish (C. gariepinus) at 6% body weight per day is recommended for raisingAfrican catfish at reduced cost of production on the basis of growth response. The general aim of this thesis was to determine the impact of stocking density on welfare indicators in African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, cultured in a recirculating aquaculture system. This is because the production of fast growing fingerlings within limited resources like land and water is very crucial to boost aquaculture in Nigeria. Since, this system is gaining popularity nationwide there is a dare need to investigate appropriate stocking density as already established for both concrete tanks and earthen pond system.

The fingerlings (average weight of 0.60 g) were stocked in densities of 5, 10 and 15 fish per tank in duplicate and were fed with a diet containing 35% crude protein diet at 5% body weight . Food demand is expected to surge due to the increase of world population. The eggs were artificially stripped, inseminated and incubated in aerated concrete tanks (2.0×2.0×1.7 m3) at 0.2 m water depth and managed as described by Viveen et al. One of the major problems identified as hindering the promotion and development of aquaculture in Nigeria had been traced to scarcity of fish fingerlings (Atanda, 2006). A-13 week feeding trial was conducted using 225 juveniles which were randomly assigned to five treatment groups in 15 indoor plastic tanks at a stocking rate of 15 fish per tank and three (3) replicates per treatment. Clarias g gariepinus post fry were stocked at the rate of 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 post fry/ 30 l litres of water. Hypothesis 1. The entire plastic tanks were screened with mosquito nets to prevent fish from jumping out.

ABSTRACT <o:p></o:p> An experiment was conducted for 16 weeks in the laboratory of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management, Michael Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike to evaluate the effect of the use of farm-made feed supplementation with tilapia meal on growth and body composition of clarias gariepinus in plastic containers. No significant correlations were found between initial body size, food intake and growth rates in the groups of fish held at any stocking density, suggesting social constraints due to the formation of dominance hierarchies may not have been the prime reason for the appetite and growth reduction seen in groups stocked at low density. Fish were weighed using electronic digital balance (METLER TOLEDO AB54, CAPACITY Max.

At the end of the study, significantly high survival was recorded in 5000 and 8000 fry/tank groups. Studies have shown that if only 20% of land and swamp available for aquaculture in Nigeria is to be cultivated, at least 3.4 billion fingerlings will be required to stock the ponds at a very low stocking density of 1 fish m‾3 (Ayinla, 1991). Although, fish seed could also be collected from the wild, the system is seasonal, unreliable and laborious and above all the viability of such seed could not be assured. stocking density of 9fish/m2of heteroclarias is optimal and is recommended in order to maintain better plankton presence and good environmental . Fifty progenies of the C. gariepinus weighing 6.19 ± 0.52 g were distributed in triplicate to twelve concrete tanks measuring 2 × 1 × 1 m 3 (stocking density of 5 gL −1). The highest absolute growth rate and daily growth rate were shown by treatment with a stocking density of 1,500 fish/m 3. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the influence of density on the welfare of juvenile African catfish in a growth stage of 100-1500 g. x���rۺ��3��t��� y�z����i�%��Ӈ��LI����U���R"H��L&�D.
