Performance of Catla catla (Ham.) fingerlings fed with carbohydrate-rich diets in manured tanks
This study was undertaken to examine the level to which dietary fish meal could be reduced, replacing it with maize, a locally available, cheap carbohydrate source and to study the protein sparing effect of carbohydrate in catla (Catla catla), grown in manured tanks. Twelve mud bottomed cement tanks...

This study was undertaken to examine the level to which dietary fish meal could be reduced, replacing it with maize, a locally available, cheap carbohydrate source and to study the protein sparing effect of carbohydrate in catla (Catla catla), grown in manured tanks. Twelve mud bottomed cement tanks of 18 m2 (6m x 3m x 1m) each, fertilized initially with poultry manure at 2000 kg•ha-1 (3.6 kg per tank) were used. The tanks were subsequently fertilized with poultry manure at 5% of the initial dose at fortnightly intervals. Four diets viz. T0, T1, T2 and T3 containing 0, 10, 20 and 30% fish meal were formulated. Catla fingerlings (av. wt. 1.9 g) stocked at 1 fish•m-2 received the diets provided in plastic trays at 5% body weight once daily in the morning hours for 120 days. The diets contained 18.47, 23.51, 27.78, 31.98% crude protein and 54.48, 46.06, 40.84, 33.89% carbohydrate (NFE), respectively.
