Abstract

Mature females and males of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) were overwintered, artificial reproduction using gonadotropic injections was carried out, eggs were incubated, larvae were reared from January to mid-April 2022 in closed conditions of a recirculated aquaculture system with a water temperature of 18-25 ° C. In April, fingerlings were transplanted into cages in the Tuyabuguz reservoir. By the end of October, catfish reached a body weight of 1.1 - 3.4 kg.
