Fish found in natural tropical and sub-tropical water system experience frequent growth fluctuations. The study was conducted to determine the length-weight relationship and condition factor of Clariid species (Clarias gariepinus, Heterobranchus longifilis and Synodontis clarias) in Kano state of Nigeria. About 177 fish samples were collected from six rivers (Thomas, Ghari, Tiga, Duddurun-Gaya, Karaye and Bagwai) across the length and breadth of Kano state. Body weight (BW=248.48g), total length (TL=32.74cm) and standard length (SL=26.16cm) were determined. The length-weight relationship and condition factors were also determined. The condition factors showed varying degree of well-being of fish sampled from their habitat, and ranged from K = 0.37 to 0.89. The equation for the lengthweight relationship for the three strains is: C. gariepinus = -329.86+17.56TL, H. longifilis = -241.49+14.28TL and C. clarias = -428.51+22.72TL. Body weight and length had positive and significant relationship (r = 0.73 TL; r = 0.75 SL).

Photoperiod Manipulation

Changing in photoperiod duration will affects the physiology of fish in general. A study aims to understand the effects of photoperiod manipulation towards C. gariepinus morpho-anatomy and growth was conducted on March–May 2018. The fishes were reared in fiber tanks (140 x 60 x 40 cm) that was filled with water and completed with a circulatory system. Treatments applied were Control (natural photoperiod), 24G (24 hours dark), 18G6T (18 hours dark and 6 hours light), and 6G18T (6 hours dark and 18 hours light). The fishes were sampled once/14 days, 4 fishes/ aquarium/sampling. Parameters measured were length-weight relationship, condition factor, hepatosomatic index (HSI), viscerasomatic index (VSI), absolute length and weight, food conversion ratio (FCR), gonad development and body protein/fat. Results shown that photoperiod manipulation affects C. gariepinus morpho-anatomy and growth. The highest growth parameters and morpho-anotomy index were found in fish reared in 18G6T. By the end of the experiment, the b value of   length-weight relationship was 3.3205, absolute weight and length were 86.70 g and 17.23 cm, condition factor was 0.84, VSI was 25.31%, HSI was 11.42%, FCR was 1.43, and body protein and fat was 48.40% and 50.38%. In the fish reared in 24G treatment, b was 1.9262, 52.13 g BW and 14.19 cm SL, condition factor was 0.80, VSI was 23.30%, HSI was 9.38%, FCR was 2.47, and body protein and fat was 48.08% and 49.53%. In the fish reared in 6G18T, b was 2.6903,49.45 g BW and 13.79 cm SL, condition factor was 0.79, VSI was 23.30%, HSI was 6.80%, FCR was 1.91, and body protein and fat was 46.64% and 49.00%. Fish reared in natural photoperiod (control) shown the lowest results b was 2.0418, 51.68 g BW and 14.21 cm SL, condition factor was 0.79, VSI was 19.58%, HSI was 6.96%, FCR was 2.20, and body protein and fat was 43.95% and 47.77%.Early developing gonad (1st maturity stage) was only found in fish reared in 18G6T. Based on data obtained it can be concluded that the photoperiod manipulation affect the morpho-anatomy and growth of C. gariepinus.

Information related to the prevalence and intensity of para-sites in an aquatic environment is crucial as preventive and responsive efforts to manage aquatic resources, especially for fish farming pur-poses. Up to now, information related to the prevalence and intensity of ectoparasites on catfish from aquaculture ponds in Aceh Besar Dis-trict is rare. This study aims to investigate the prevalence, intensity, and dominance of ectoparasites on catfish from aquaculture ponds in Aceh Besar district. The total of 200 catfish from four research stations at Sibreh, Kareung, Lambaro, and Limpok was observed in this study. The ectoparasites observation was focused on the skin, fins, and gill of the catfish. The observation parameter consists of prevalence, in-tensity, domination, length-weight relationship, and condition factor. Identification result showed that there were four types of ectoparasites infect the catfish in the aquaculture ponds in Aceh Besar District i.e Trichodina sp., Gyrodactylus sp., Dactylogyrus sp. and Ichthyopthyri-us multifiliis. Station 3 (Lambaro) had the highest prevalence and in-tensity, which were 64% and 5.87 ectoparasites/fish, respectively. In-fected catfish tended to have a lower weight growth than healthy catfish.

C. quadricarinatus (red claw) has important economic value either for consumption or as ornamental crustacean, has been  cultivated, and introduced to many waterways outside its natural habitat. In Tondano lake, C. quadricarinatus has developed and become fishing target  using traps and spearguns.  The purpose of this survey is to describe the freshwater lobster catching using traps, and to know the length-weight relationships, growth pattern and condition factor. The study was expected to use as information on the presence of C. quadricarinatus Tondano Lake. Catches were red claw, C. quadricrinatus, marble sleeper Oxyeleotris marmorata, Mud gudgeon Ophieleotris aporos, Mozambique tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus and African sharptooth catfish Clarias Gariepinus. Length-weight relationship of C. quadricarinatus was W = -1.8005 + 4.2765 log L for males, W = -1.2978 + 3.6524 log L for females, respectively, and W = -1.5631 + 3.9848 log b for combined sexes. They had positive allometric (A +) growth. Condition factor ranged from 0.60-1.43 with an average of 1.071 ± 0.17 for males and 0.46-1.36 with an average of 1.027 ± 0.18 for females, 0.59-1.642 withan average of 1.22± 0.21.Keywords: fishing, length-weight, growth pattern, fishing gear, Kakas district, MinahasaAbstrakC. quadricarinatus (red claws) mempuyai nilai ekonomis penting baik komsumsi maupun sebagai krustasea hias dan  telah banyak di budidaya serta di introduksi ke banyak perairan  di luar habitat aslinya. Di Danau Tondano, C. quadricarinatus telah berkembang biak dan menjadi target penangkapan nelayan mengunakan alat tangkap bubu dan alat tangkap tura sejenis tombak sambil menyelam. Tujuan penelitinan ini ialah untuk mendeskripsikan penangkapan lobster air tawar C. quadricarinatus menggunakan alat tangkap bubu, hubungan panjang berat, pola pertumbuhan dan faktor kondisi. Hasil penilitian ini diharapkan dapat digunakan sebagai informasi keberadaan lobster air tawar C. quadricarinatus di Danau Tondano. Hasil tangkapan yang didapat adalah lobster air tawar, ikan Betutu, ikan Payangka, ika Mujair dan ikan Lele Dumbo. Hasil hubungan panjang berat lobster air tawar di dapat jantan : W=-1,8005+4,2765 log L, betina : W=-1,2978+3,6524 log L dan gabungan ( jantan & betina) : W=-1,5631+3,9848 log L. Pola pertumbuhan ketiganya ialah allometrik positif (A+) dan faktor kondisi jantan berkisar 0,60-1,43 dengan rata-rata1,071±0,17, betina berkisar 0,46-1,36 dengan rata-rata 1,027±0,18, dan gabungan (jantan dan betina) berkisar 0,59-1,642 dengan rata-rata1,22±0,21.Kata Kunci : Penangkapan, Hubungan panjang berat, Pola pertumbuhan, Kecamatan Kakas
