The effect of using fishes condensate as feed containing on rearing of climbing perch (anabas testudineus bloch)

Abstract

The experiment on using of different levels fishes condensate as feed contain in climbing perch (Anabas testudineus Bloch). To study on growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein efficiency ratio (PER) and survival rate of climbing perch. The diets contained 40% protein and 3,200 Kcal/Kg (DE) in all formulas with varying levels ; 0, 25, 50, and 75% of fishes condensate replacement of fish meal, respectively and compared with pellet feed (formula 5). The diets were given for 10 weeks to fish which the initial average weight were 4.43+0.14 g. The result showed that the SGR, FCR, PER and survival rate of climbing perch was 25 percentage of fishes condensate (formula 2) gave highest growth performance as SGR, 0.72+0.16 (%/day) and PER, 1.12+0.22 were significantly different (p<0.05) with 0, 75, and 50%, respectively but not significantly different from the control feed (formula 5). All of the feed formulas showed no effect on survival rate (p>0.05).
