Evaluation of growth performance of common carp and Amur carp with varying levels of macronutrients

Abstract

The present study was conducted to evaluate the growth performance of common carp & Amur carp (both male and female) on the basis of protein, lipid and carbohydrate incorporated in feed. The study was conducted for 13 months. The observations of present study indicated that for achieving better growth the feed must be incorporated with macronutrients viz protein, lipid and carbohydrate in balance. The present study revealed that better growth parameters were attained by the fish group that was fed with high protein and lipid incorporated in feed, in comparison to control diet.
