Abstract
An experiment was conducted to investigate the nutrient quality of water hyacinth leaf meal (WHLM) fermented with different doses of Aspergillus niger as fish feed ingredients. This study utilized a completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments and three repetitions. The doses of A. niger supplemented in WHLM were 0; 6; 8; 10; and 12%. Results of this study showed that nutrient quality of WHLM with A. niger supplementation significantly affected the reduction of crude fiber and increase of crude protein (P<0.05). Addition of 12% A. niger is the best treatment for improving protein and fiber quality of water hyacinth leaf meal.
