Abstract

This study investigated the Growth performance, nutrients utilization and Haematology of Clarias gariepinus juveniles fed with graded activated charcoal (AC) in rice husk (RH) diet. Eight diets were formulated; control diet 1 (without RH and AC), control diet 2 (+AC), diet 3 (2. 5%RH), diet 4 (2. 5%RH+AC), diet 5 (5. 0%RH), diet 6 (5. 0%RH+AC), diet 7 (7. 5% RH), diet 8 (7. 5%RH+AC). Diets were fed to triplicate groups of ten fish per tank thrice daily to satiation for eight weeks. Fish fed Diet 4 recorded highest values for mean weight gain (MWG) (75. 71± 1. 76g), Specific Growth Rate or SGR (2. 40± 0. 03%/day) and Protein E f f i c i e n c y R a t i o ( PER) (3. 22± 0. 15) while fish fed Diet 7 had the least values for Mean Weight Gain or MWG (59. 50± 1. 21g), SGR (2. 09± 0. 03g) and PER (2. 39± 0. 10). The AFI didn’ t record significant difference (P>0. 05) while FCR had significant difference (P<0. 05) across diets, with Diet 4 having the best value for Feed Conversion Ratio or FCR (0. 86± 0. 04). Diets of RH lowered the cholesterol, Packed Cell Volume (PCV) and Haemoglobin (Hb), levels in the experimental fish though, the inclusion of AC to the test diets resulted in a non-significant increase in the levels of these parameters. The values of White Blood Cells (WBC) and White Blood Cells (RBC) did not show significant differences (P>0. 05) amongst diets however, diets 1 and 2 recorded the highest values for WBC (14500± 707. 11) and RBC (6. 15± 0. 91) with the least values (9000± 2828. 43, 5. 15± 0. 21, respectively) for these parameters recorded with diets 3 and 7. The improved growth recorded at 2. 5% inclusion level of AC suggests that activated charcoal could favourably be added to the feed of C. gariepinus juveniles.
