Abstract

A feeding trial was conducted to investigate aflatoxin effect of moulded sausage waste with ginger and its histopathological study on Clarias gariepinus. One hundred and eighty fingerlings with mean weight 3.90g±0.02 were stocked at 15fish/net happas (0.8mx0.6mx0.4m).The net happa were suspended into ¾ of an earthen pond of (12mx12mx1.5m) LXBXH using kuralon twine at the four edges of the happas to tie around carefully arranged bamboo poles across an earthen pond. The fingerlings were fed with four isonitrogenous diets containing 40% crude protein at different inclusion level. Treatment 1 (0% control diet), Treatment 2 (10%), Treatment 3 (20%), and Treatment 4 (30%).The fingerlings were fed at 5% body weight for 8 weeks. It was observed that there was a significant difference (p<0.05) in the values obtained for Feed conversion ratio (FCR), Specific growth rate (SGR), Protein efficiency ratio (PER) and weight increase. Feed conversion ratio in Treatment 1 (3.14±0.35) and in Treatment 2 (1.01±0.58).
