| dc.description.abstract | The study was conducted to compare the performance of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) fed with combinations vermi meal African night crawler (Eudrilus eugeniae). The treatments evaluated were: T1-African catfish fry fed with 100% fish meal; T2-African catfish fry fed with 100% vermimeal; T3- African catfish fry fed with 25% fishmeal + 75% vermimeal; T4- African catfish fry fed with 50% fishmeal + 50% vermimeal + 20; T5- African catfish fry fed with 75% fishmeal + 25% vermimeal. Twelve circular tanks (1m diameter and 18 cm height) were used in the study. Each tank was stocked with 100 fifteen day-old African catfish fry acquired from Phil-Fishgen, Freshwater Aquaculture Center (FAC). The experiment was carried out for duration of 20 days. Results showed that the fry in T4 had the best performance in term of final length, final weight, absolute and specific growth rates. For the survival rate the T1 had the best performance. Statistical analysis revealed that the African catfish fry in T4 had significantly higher total length, final weight, absolute growth rate, and specific growth rate than the fry fed in T1, T2, T3 and T5. | |
