dc.description.abstractJuveniles of Oreochromis niloticus (mean body weight 7.05+1.02cm)were subjected to sniper 10000Eac at 5 sub-lethal treatment levels of 0.00,0.12,0.15,0.19 and 0.25mg/l. There was no significant difference between water quality parameters of exposed and control groups.A 21 day exposure to sub-lethal concentrations of the toxicants led to a significant decrease (p<0.05)in (specific growth) weight of the exposed fish in comparison with their controls.the effects on liver and kidney were observed majorly at 0.19 and 0.25mg/l of the exposed fish.liver tissues revealed steaosis, haemosiderosis, and vacuolations. Kidney tissues revealed tubular nephrosis and hyperplasia it is concluded that abnormalities in body weight and visceral organs of the exposed fish were consequences of the exposure to the toxicant.it is recommended that the use of Sniper 1000EC by local fishermen be banned to save the aquatic environment form destructionen_US
