Abstract
A feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effect of feeding frequency on the growth performance and body composition of juvenile mud loach, Misgurnus mizolepis. Duplicate groups of fish (initial fish weight, 1.0 g/fish) were fed to apparent satiation at one, two, three, or four meals per day for 10 weeks. The results of the present study showed that weight gain of fish fed one meal per day was significantly (P0.05) lower than those fish fed two, three and four meals per day. Feed efficiency of fish fed one meals per day was significantly (P0.05) lower than other experimental groups. Consequently, we can conclude that the optimum feeding frequency of juvenile mud loach appeared two twice per day.
