Comparison of proximate composition and sensory attributes of Clariid catfish species of Clarias gariepinus, Heterobranchus bidorsalis, and their hybrids
Clariid catfish are favorite food fish especially in African and Asian continents. Recently there has been preference for particular species or hybrids of these species based on quality assurance and value addition. Consequently, this study aimed to evaluate the possible effect of different catfish species and their hybrids on proximate composition and sensory attributes. Catfish species, Clari...
متن کاملEffect of Oxygen Management on Culture Performance of Channel Catfish in Earthen Ponds
—Aeration allows for higher feeding rates and increased production of channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus in intensive and semi-intensive aquaculture systems. However, the effect of specific dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations on various production parameters remains unknown. The purpose of this 2-year study was to determine the effect of daily minimum DO concentration on channel catfish produ...
متن کاملSublethal Effects of Tobacco (Nicotiana Tobaccum) Leaf Dust on Enzymatic Activities of Heteroclarias (a Hybrid of Heterobranchus Bidorsalis and Clarias Gariepinus)
Tobacco (Nicotiana tobaccum) leaf dust has both piscicidal and fertilizer properties. Thus there is a need to study its effects at sub-lethal concentrations (375.60, 187.80, 93.90 0.0mg/L) on some enzymatic activities of Heteroclarias in a static semirenewable bioassay system with the aim to ascertain its effect on the test fish after the 14 days exposure period. Water quality parameters and ph...
متن کاملShort communication:Effects of stocking density on growth performance and profitability of Labeo bata fry reared in earthen ponds
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of stocking density on growth, production and profitability of farming Labeo bata fry in earthen rearing ponds for a period of 60 days. Labeo bata, fry (mean initial length, 3.42 ± 0.07cm and weight, 1.02 ± 0.06 g) were stocked at 750, 1000 and 1250 decimal-1 in treatment-1(T1), treatment-2 (T2) and treatment-3 (T3) respectively, each with two ...
متن کاملEmbryonic and larval developmental stages of African giant catfish Heterobranchus bidorsalis (Geoffroy Saint Hilaire, 1809) (Teleostei, Clariidae)
The dearth of African giant catfish Heterobranchus bidorsalis seeds poses great threat to its aquaculture and biodiversity, hence detailed knowledge and understanding of its embryology is indispensable for its artificial propagation and conservation programmes. Photomicrographs of extruded oocyte through all developmental cell stages of live embryo to larval stage are documented with the aid of...
