Six isonitrogenous (29.2% CP) and isoenergetic (16.9 kJ·g>sup>-1) diets were formulated to contain 0% (A0), 10% (A10), 20% (A>sub>20), 30% (A30), 40% (A40) and 50% (A50) of Azolla meal (AM), as partial fish meal (FM) substitutes. Diet A0 without AM served as a control. Fish growth decreased as AM level exceeded 20% in diets (P 0.05). Crude lipid was significantly lower in fish fed A50 and significant differences were also found in crude ash (P 20, A30 and A50. High level of the fern reduces growth without negatively affecting fatty acid in fish. Fish PUFA, especially the (n - 3) fatty acids, are affected positively, even when fed 50% AM, which is good for the quality of the fish produced in regard to the benefits for the health of consumers.展开更多

Mean hatching rates were very high (between 72.5% and 92.5%). The parental stock of C. gariepinus showed higher survival value of 96.0% under indoor rearing. The hybrid produced by crossing of ♂H. bidorsalis and ♀C. gariepinus showed higher growth rate in hapa under suspended (14. 1 0 g) and non-suspended condition (14.30 g) in earthen pond at the end of four months rearing. The growth rate under suspended and non-suspended condition were very high and were not significant different from each other. Comparatively, the hybrid of the cross between (♀) H. bidorsalis and (♂) C. gariepinus was better than the other cross under non-suspended condition while the parental strain ofH. bidorsalis was to produce under the suspended condition. The purpose of this is to produce improved fish with fast growing trait and other qualitative characters that could meet the economic target of Nigerian aquaculture, The hybrids have potential as commercial food fish.展开更多
