Treatment A (0% of coconut waste flour), treatment B (10% of coconut waste flour), treatment C (20% of coconut waste flour), and treatment D (30% of coconut waste flour). The parameters in this research were growth rate, daily growth rate, and feed conversion ration and protein retention and water quality. The result showed that the use of coconut waste flour in feed gave no effect to the growth rate, daily growth rate, and feed conversion ratio for the dumbo catfish.
