<b>Effect of simulated acid rain on the survival, mortality, behaviour and morphology of African mud catfish <i>Clarias gariepinus</i> (Burchell, 1822)

This study simulated acidic habitat for different life stages of Clarias gariepinus to know the effect on survival, mortality, morphology and behaviour. The fish were exposed to pHs 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8.01 (control) for 35 days. 100% mortality was recorded for all the life stages in pH 3, and 80, 62 and...
