Abstract

The study was carried out to determine the Effect of Concentrations of Vestaline^®(Pendimethalin) herbicide on Growth Performance of Clarias gariepinus juveniles. The toxicity test was carried out using 180 healthy fish of mean weight 27.97±0.03g which were divided into six treatments with each treatment having ten fish and the setup was in triplicate. The fish were exposed to 0mg/l (control), 1.89mg/l, 3.79mg/l, 5.68mg/l, 7.57mg/l and 9.46mg/l) concentrations of Vestaline^®(Pendimethalin) herbicide for eight weeks during which the fish were fed at 3% of their body weight twice daily and weights measured weekly. Data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) at P<0.05using Minitab. The results showed retard growth as compared to the control. Growth parameters such as Specific Growth Rate and Food Conversion Efficiency decreased (P<0.05) with increase in concentrations. Poor Food conversion Ratio and poor percentage weight gain were also recorded. Vestaline^®(Pendimethalin) herbicide from the study had negative influence on Clarias gariepinus weights and ability to utilize feed.
