After three days, the hatchlings were fed to satiation with Artemia nauplii at intervals of 3 h for 5 days and later fed with commercial feed (0.2 mm) for 3 days. C. gariepinus were stocked under different densities (1, 5, or 10 fish/tank), and their locomotor activity recorded under light-dark (LD), constant light (LL), constant darkness (DD), and LD-reversed (DL . An authoritative 1997 review of the effects of stress on fish in polluted water, research labs and fish farms. 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. 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. 2. morphism.

Stocking density should be based on the trophic status of the reservoir, desired market sizes of fish, and projected yields. 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). The growth and survival of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell) fry was investigated at high stocking density. It is concluded that sea bass, within the range of stocking densities tested and at least at its early stages, does not belong to that fish category which is characterised by an inverse correlation between stocking density and growth rate.

African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) (initial body weight: 34.8 ± 4.8 g) and vundu catfish (Heterobranchus longifilis) (initial body weight: 39.1 ± 8.2 g) fingerlings were stocked at densities of 4, 6 or 8 fish m in traditional fish ponds (whedos) constructed in the floodplain of the Oueme River (South Benin, West Africa), for 70 days from March to June 2005. The research aimed to analyze the interaction, variation of stocking densities and effect of different types of feed on growth and survival of catfish (Clarias gariepinus) seeds in the plastic ponds and their interaction. This is consistent with the finding of Hossain et al. The highest mean final growth rate (0.040±0.00 g day1) was however, observed in treatment LD. 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). HYBRIDIZATION OF Clarias gariepinus x Heterobranchus longifilis : The yearnings of farmers and scientists to have a farmed catfish that combines the fast growth traits of Heterobranchus spp and early maturing traits of C. gariepinus led to the development of a hybrid 'Heteroclarias' spp. Chapter 8 General discussion. The recorded water parameters values were within the acceptable limits for catfish growth and health (Omitoyin, 2007). <> Three treatments with two replicate tanks per treatment were established: (1) Low density (LD: 5000 fry/tank), (2) Medium density (MD: 8000 fry/tank) and (3) High density (HD: 12000 fry/tank) (Van de Nieuwegiessen et al., 2008). was reared intensively at two stocking densities of 96 fingerlings/m. 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. Food Conversion Ratio (FCR), Mean Growth Rate (MGR), Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and Mean Live-Weight Gain (MWG) were calculated as in Pechsiri and Yakupitiyage (2005): where, W1 = Initial weight, W2 = Final weight, d = stock density, 0.5 = Constant. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the optimum stocking density and diet's type recently used in catfish farms, on both growth performance and economic efficiency of African catfish Clarias gariepinus. Direct Link | 38: Ajani, E.K., S.B. 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. Controlled hatchery production of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell 1822): growth and survival of fry at high stocking density. * Clarias mossambicus * Clarias gariepinus In 1982 Teugels revised the subgenus Clarias and fou nd only two species ( C. gariepinus and C. anguillaris ) if the number of gill rakers on the first branchial arch was considered; for C. anguillaris the number of gill rakers was rather low (14 to 40) while for C. gariepinus was relatively Black sea turbot were reared at four different densities in the sea cages to evaluate the effects of stocking density on growth, survival rate and food conversion ratio and it was revealed that stocking density had a significant effect on growth and survival rates of turbot. Hence, 5000 fry/tank is regarded as the appropriate stocking density for the intensive tank culture of C. gariepinus fry management. Heteroclarias is an inter-specific hybrid of Clarias gariepinus and Heterobranchus bidorsalis which transfer or combine desirable traits of the two species [4-5].

This study was aimed to analyze the growth performance of African catfish Clarias gariepinus cultured in the biofloc system at high stocking density. Aquaculture is the rearing of fish and other aquatic organisms in man-made ponds, reservoirs, cages or other enclosures in lakes and coastal waters[1]. Publisher: WorldFish ISBN: 9832346681 Category: Clarias gariepinus Page: 130 View: 481 Fry survival was in excess of 90% in all treatments. The results reveal that the stocking density at which fish were cultured significantly (p<0.05) affected the mean final length, final body weight, Mean Growth Rate (MGR), Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and final Weight Gain (MWG), except Food Conversion Ratio (FCR). Antibacterial proteins/peptides are important parts of the innate immune system in Clarias gariepinus. Clarias gariepinus fry (0.14±0.01 g) were reared in indoor recirculating tanks (60.5 m3) at three different stocking rates 5000, 8000 and 12000 fry/tank as treatment LD, MD and HD respectively for a period of eight weeks. The results from this study indicate that fry management expressed by stocking density significantly impacts the growth performance and survival of C. gariepinus in recirculating tank. The experiment had three replicate and lasted for 12 months during wish monthly sampling was done to measure body weight and feed was adjusted accordingly. To examine potential antibacterial proteins/peptides in organs and mucus of C. gariepinus, crude protein/peptide extracts were isolated with ammonium sulfate precipitation from mucus, skin, gill, suprabranchial organ and intestine.
