Apparent nutrient digesibility coefficient of sunflower and sesame seed meal in Clarias gariepinus (Burchell 1822) fingerlings

The apparent digestibility coefficient of raw sunflower (Helianthus annus). and sesame (Sesamum indicum) seedmeal by Clariid catfish (Clarias gariepinus) fingerlings was evaluated at 15,30 and 45% levels of replacement respectively using soybean meal based diets as control diet. There was significant difference (p<0.05) in apparent organic matter digestibility (AOM), apparent protein digestibility (APD), apparent energy digestibility (AED) apparent carbohydrate digestibility (ACD) between the fish fed control diet and the fish fed test diets. However there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in apparent lipid and fibre digestibilities of fish fed control diet and test diets RSF15 and RSM15
