This project work was basically conducted to provide fish farmers a preferable diet for Catfish fry.. Several diets were used while the fish growth rate amongst other parameters were observed
Abstract
The growth and survival of Clarias gariepinus larvae (0.42mg) fed Artemia salina (D1), inert diet (egg white + fish meal) (D2) and a combination of both diets (D3) was investigated for 42 days. Each diet was feed to 80 post yolk-sac fry, in triplicate plastic tanks holding 40L of water. The specific growth rate, survival, percentage weight gain, mean weight gain and performance index were investigated. The percentage weight gain and specific growth rate were not significantly different (P>0.05) for the various diets, while the final mean weight, survival and performance index of the larvae fed D1, D2 and D3 were significantly different (P
