Abstract

Juveniles of Oreochromis niloticus (mean body weight 7.05± 1.02cm) were subjected to sniper 1000EC at 5 sublethal treatment levels of 0.00, 0.12, 0.15, 0.19 and 0.25mg/L. There was no significant difference between water quality parameters of the exposed and control groups. A 21 day exposure to sublethal concentrations of the toxicant led to a significant decrease (p
