Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated the effects of honeybee pollen (BP) on the growth, gut health, and liver structure of African catfish juveniles over a 21-day feeding trial.
  • Results indicated that adding BP to their diet significantly improved growth metrics, with fish in enriched groups gaining 45% more weight than control fish.
  • Histological analyses suggested that BP positively influenced intestinal development and nutrient absorption, with 1% BP recommended as the ideal additive for optimal growth in African catfish.
