Enhancing Growth and Disease Resistance in North African Catfish Fingerlings: The Role of Aeration
Author(s): Emmanuel Delwin Abarike*, Aminatu Issaka and Felix Kofi Agbeko Kuebutornye
The research explores the impacts of aeration on the growth and well-being of North African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, raised in concrete tanks. Fish of mean weight 1.96 ± 0.22 g of three experimental groups in triplicates (30 fish per replicate group) were set to include, 0 h daily aeration group (control group), 12 h overnight aeration (i.e. 1800 h to 0600 h) group and a 24 h continues aeration (daily aeration) group, within a mean temperature of 28°C ± 0.21°C fed a commercial diet for 8 weeks. Data on Weight Gain Rate percent (WGR%), Specific Growth Rate percent (SGR%), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), and haematological parameters Cumulative Mortality (CM), and Relative Percent Survival (RPS) to Aeromonas hydrophila infection were measured. Results from the study showed that 24 h aeration is best in improvi.. View more»
