Abstract
An investigation was carried out to study the proximate composition of Oreochromis mossambicus fed with different concentrations of fish waste. Four experimental feeds were prepared by replacing the constituents of control feed at 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 gm /100 gm respectively as treatment T1, T2, T3 and T4. On the 45th day after treatment biochemical parameters such as moisture, Protein, carbohydrate, fat and ash content were observed. The data obtained were analyzed using one way analysis of variance (ANOVA).The fishes fed with T4 feed showed significantly higher moisture, protein and ash content when compared to control. And the fishes fed with T4 feed showed a minimum carbohydrate content.The formulation of fish feed using fish waste will provide new opportunities in aquaculture industries. Keywords: Proximate composition, Oreochromis mossambicus, Biochemical parameters, Fish waste
