“…Meanwhile, in its natural environment, several studies have reported poor hatchling and survival performance; [5] reported an average rate of 59.1% in the rainy season for C. gariepinus in the Republic of Congo, while [6] reported a rate as low as 4% for C. gariepinus eggs incubated on a nylon substrate. As a result of this, several research has been conducted to improve hatchability and survival of catfish larvae in captivity, among the research are the work of [7] on reproduction growth, health control and aquaculture potential of African catfish Clarias gariepinus; [8] on the effect of various doses of ovaprim on reproductive performance of African Catfish Clarias gariepinus (Bruchell) and Heterobranchus longifilis (Valenciennes); [9] on recent advances in fish hatchery management; [10] on homestead artificial propagation, growth and morphometric characteristics of the African catfish (Clarias gariepinus). Despite all these researches, there still exist a wide gap between fish seed demand and supply.…”
