Lamai, S.L. and Eyo, A.A. (1999) Successful handstripping of hatchery bred and reared male African catfish, Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822). In: 13th Annual Conference of the Fisheries Society of Nigeria (FISON) , 3-8 November 1996 , New Bussa, Nigeria.
Abstract
A total of 45 Male and 5 female Clarias gariepinus bred and reared in the hatchery in sunning for one year were obtained for this experiment. The fish were then housed separately according to their sexes and maintained on trout diet at 10% body weight for two days before they were subjected to induction. These were then induced using both human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG - 500iu) and carp pituitary suspension (CPS -3mg kg super(-1) suspended in 0.9% saline) either as priming or resolving doses. The milt produced was used to fertilize eggs tripped from females. The results indicated high milt production, motility and fertility in most males
