Abstract

Comparative evaluation of iso-nutritional mash and pellet feed (crude protein- 22%) were assessed for 96 days of culture in outdoor experimental tanks (180 L) subjected to mixed culture of column- bottom feeder, Rohu (Labeo rohita) and bottom feeder, Mrigal (Cirrhinus mrigala) under Indian pond culture protocols of management practices. Though, the feed types (mash and pellet) were not influential in determining the growth rate of the test fishes, the higher overall mean value of feed conversion ratio (FCR) in pellet feed (9.21) indicated that it was less effective compared to the mash type of feed.
