Popis: This study examined the Hatchability, growth performance and profitability of Clarias gariepinus hatched with Ovaprim and pituitary hormone using reproductive output and fry quality indices. Six pairs of broods stock (Cat fish) with three pairs, each for artificial and natural hormones were selected from both male and female and were subjected to different treatment with ova prim (Artificial hormone) and pituitary gland extract (natural hormones). At a mean temperature of 25.0±0.81 latency period for ova prim and pituitary gland extract were 650 and 698 minutes, respectively. Workers fecundity was significantly higher (P
