“…These results are in agreement with the findings obtained by Chakarborty and Banerjee, who revealed that the increased fish biomass of Nile tilapia in cages had a significant negative effect on the final mean weight [25]. Ferdous et al, reported that Monosex tilapia in hapa at a low density had a better growth than at a higher density [26]. The lower growth performance of tilapia at higher stocking density may be caused by voluntary appetite suppression, more energy is expended on intense antagonistic behavioral interaction between fish, increased competition for food and living space, and increased stress due to reduction in space availability [26].…”

Effect of Stocking Density on the Growth Performance of Red Tilapia in Zeolite Supplemented Closed System

et al. 2021

Food demand is expected to surge due to the increase of world population. Malaysia is one of the top fish consumption countries in Asia, but the reduction of capture fishery has led to the increase for aquaculture for tilapia to overcome the demand. Thus, the objective of this study was to compare the growth performance of red tilapia at different stocking densities of zeolite supplemented closed system. Red tilapia fry was stocked into aquarium. Five treatments (containing zeolite and without zeolite) with two replicates were used. Food was given twice a day with 2% of total biomass of the fish. Weight and length of red tilapia were measured every two weeks. The zeolite treatments which recorded the highest final mean weight was T1 with the lowest stocking density (5 fish) while in T5 (highest stocking density), lowest mean weight was recorded. Specific growth rate and length gain in T1 was significantly higher than other treatments. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in growth parameters between the treatments with and without zeolite. The results revealed that red tilapia stocked in the T1 of the lowest stocking density (5 fish) had the highest growth performance than the fish in other treatments. Compared to other treatments, T1 recorded the highest final length and weight, weight and length gain, Specific Growth Rate % (SGR) among the treatments. The findings will be useful for the practitioners to understand the best practice for stocking density in zeolite supplemented closed system.

“…P. guajava tree has a long history of medicinal uses that are still employed today. P. guajava is known for their anti bacterial, immune boosting characteristic which was also reported by Jannatul et al, (2017) who stated that it acts as immunostimulant, reduce mortality and disease resistance in O. niloticus against P. fluorescens. This present study aligns with the study of Omitoyin et al, (2019) who reported increased body weight of Oreochromis niloticus fed Psidium guajava though at 1 % inclusion.…”

The length weight relationship (LWR) of Clarias gariepinus fed Psidium guajava and Mangifera indica leaf extract was evaluated for six (6) months. A total of 420, eight (8) weeks old fingerlings of Clarias gariepinus was used for this study. Experimental fish were fed 40 % crude protein diet with inclusion of both leaf extracts at 0 %, 4 %, 6 %, and 8 %. Experimental fish were stocked in twenty-one 4ft by 4ft tarpaulin tanks half filled with borehole water, acclimation was done for 7 days during which they were fed commercial diet. Aqueous extract was done for both leaves and stored in plastic cans for further use. Weight and length of fish was measured biweekly and data was used to assess the length-weight relationship. The result of this study showed that the best weight was recorded in treatment 2 fed 4 % Psidium guajava extract and the least in treatment 5 fed 4 % Mangifera indica extract. The result on LWR revealed the regression coefficient ‘b’ to be from 17.68-20.40 which indicates a positive allometric growth, since ‘b’ value is more than 3. This further means that the fish samples in this study became heavier, stouter, deeper bodied or bigger as it increases in length i.e all parts of the fish increase in size proportionately with the length.
