| Περιγραφή: | A ten-week experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of blood meal in rice and wheat bran based pelleted feeds on growth and survival rate of Heteropneustes fossilis in the Wet Laboratory of the Faculty of Fisheries of Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. For the experiment, 9 aquaria of 60L capacity were used and fish fry of 0.437g of initial average weight were released at the same stocking density (20 fry per aquarium). Three different treatments (T1, T2 and T3) with three replications were used having different percentage of protein containing diets (Diet I -10% blood meal, Diet II -15% blood meal and Diet III -20% blood meal). All three diets having a constant inclusion level of the following ingredients: rice bran 20%, wheat bran 20%, fish meal 20%, molasses 5%, vitamin and mineral premix 1% and chromic oxide 0.5%. Feeds were supplied at 10% body weight twice daily in the morning at 9.00 am and in the afternoon at 5.00 pm throughout the study period. Sampling was done at 7 days interval throughout the experimental period. Water quality parameters were within the acceptable range during the experimental period. The significant highest mean final weight (g), weight gain (g), percent weight gain, specific growth rate (%/day) and the best feed utilization in terms of food conversion ratio were found at 20% blood meal containing diet (Diet -III). The results suggested that 20% blood meal containing feed could be recommended for the intensive culture of H. fossilis. |
