The fish feed and nutrition in Nigeria was reviewed. Crab meal, shrimp head meal, tadpole meal, soybean meal were used for partial or total replacement of fish meal in the diets of cultivable fish species and no satisfactory result is yet obtained for 100% of replacement of fishmeal. The cost price of species specific diets so far developed is out of tune for profitable fish farming venture. Further investigation is required to develop cost effective species specific diets. The problem in feed and nutrition was highlighted and possible solutions were proffered. |

A feeding trial was conducted on the replacement of fish meal (Tuna waste) with oven dried toad meal in diets for Clarias gariepinus fingerlings average weight 3.6g in concrete tanks for 56 days. Average weight gain, % weight gain, specific growth rate, apparent digestibility coefficient, protein efficiency ratio and feed conversion ratio showed no significant difference as the level of toad meal increased. The only recorded mortalities occurred in the control and treatment of (25% replacement level) at 16.67% and 8.33% respectively and may have been due to handling stress. Toadmeal compares favourably with fish meal (tuna waste) and could be conveniently used in its replacement. |

Azolla pinnata as a possible replacement of the palm kernel cake in the diet of Oreochromis niloticus. Compounded diets from a control with palm kernel cake replaced at varying levels of 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% with the aquatic fern (oven dried Azolla pinnata) were fed to Oreochromis niloticus for twelve weeks to determine the acceptability and utilization of the fern in the diet, verify the nutritional influence of the fern on the performance of the fish and possible optimum palm kernel cake replacement level. The fish readily accepted the test diets. Better growth responses were recorded in the treatments containing Azolla pinnata meal. The best response was observed in the 20% replacement level, thereby suggesting an optimum replacement. However... |
