Abstract
Fish Orange molly selected for the present investigation. Three types of feed were prepared viz; Conventional control feed (D1), Raw Eichornia incorporated feed (D2), Decomposed Eichornia incorporated feed (D3) using different ingredients. 40% protein was maintained in all the three types of feeds. The experiments were conducted for 21 days in 13-lt plastic troughs. The D3 showed the best assimilation efficiency (98.9%), Gross growth efficiency (11.67%) and Net growth efficiency (11.80%). But D1 recorded the best consumption (2.4%), Assimilation (2.31), Metabolism (2.14). The D3 showed the best final dry wt (0.36 mg/g). best mean wt. (0.11g) and production of (0.21g) respectively.
