Nutritional Composition of African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in Ghana: Effects of Culture Conditions, Feed and Processing

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
This review synthesizes current evidence on the nutritional composition of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus), with emphasis on Ghanaian aquaculture. The species is a valuable source of high‐quality protein, essential amino acids, minerals and vitamins, although lipid composition varies widely.

Chronic thermal stress affects growth, liver morphology and molecular responses but allows recovery at optimal temperature in juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 864-884, August 2026.
Abstract Climate‐driven aquatic heatwaves pose an increasing threat to fish populations by inducing prolonged thermal stress. However, the resilience of teleosts to chronic heat exposure and their capacity for recovery remains poorly understood. This study investigated the effects of chronic high‐temperature exposure on juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio).

Growth and histomorphological responses of Chindongo socolofi to the long‐term replacement of fish meal with defatted Tenebrio molitor meal

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The long‐term suitability of defatted Tenebrio molitor larvae meal (TM) as a substitute for fish meal (FM) protein was evaluated in Chindongo socolofi over a 170‐day feeding period. Six isonitrogenous (38% crude protein) and isoenergetic (4396 kcal kg−1) diets were formulated, in which TM protein replaced FM protein at 0% (control), 20%, 40 ...

Clarias Scopoli

, 2003
The genus Clarias Scopoli, 1777 is a group of air-breathing catfishes found in inland waters throughout much of the Old World. They are easily identified by an anguilliform body, long-based dorsal and anal-fins, eye with free orbital margin and located dorsolaterally, large and well-developed neurocranium and the presence of an accessory breathing ...
