Investigation was carried out on food and condition of the Catfish, Synodontis species in the
Upper Benue River Basin, Nigeria from March to June, 2000. Fish samples were obtained
twice monthly from different fish landing sites. Analysis showed that there was no significant
difference between the sizes of males and females. Length-weight regression analysis
indicated isometric growth of the species sampled. Correlation analysis between length and
weight was highly significant. Monthly mean condition factor was constant during the period …
