Abstract
The influence of different temperature regimes (28 ° C and 25 ° C) on the early ontogeny of Clarias gariepinus was studied. Heterochronism in the development of the main systems has been provided: the central nervous system and the digestive system are actively developing, the formation of the cardiovascular, respiratory and genitourinary systems occurs more slowly. The duration of embryonic development within the membranes was 18-22 hours. The initial stages of development changed insignificantly with decreasing temperature. The duration of the larval period was 14 days at 28 ° C and 15 days at 25 ° C. The fry period lasted 30 and 32 days, respectively. In terms of the duration of embryogenesis and the timing of the release of free embryos, the indicators did not go beyond the norm. The percentage of ugly embryos (underdevelopment of the operculum, underdevelopment of the tail, head and fins) was small and amounted to 3.2%, in the first and 4% in the second temperature regime. Incubation at temperatures below the optimum temperature of this species makes it possible to obtain viable offspring, adapted to the change in temperature regime.
