Heterobranchus spp has a growth rate twice as fast as that of Clarias gariepinus while the latter survive in poorly
oxygenated water. Hybridization between these two clariid catfishes thus produces offsprings that possess a combination of these desirable qualities.
The objective of fish farming is to obtain the maximum increase in weight (biomass) of the fish/unit area of volume/unit with a specific level of management practice. These require the knowledge of fish growth, carrying capacity, nutrition, yield, and water quality parameters.
