Abstract

The efficient level of MBM for good growth and survival of milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal, without histological changes in tissues (liver, intestine, muscle, kidney and brain) was determined in both freshwater (FW) and seawater (SW) culture conditions. To determine this level, growth and digestibility experiments were conducted in FW and SW together with observations on histology of tissues. In the growth experiments, fish (wet weight less <5g) in triplicate groups were fed for three months with either of the six test diets formulated to be isonitrogenous at 36% with varying dietary levels of MBM at 0%, 7.5%, 15%, 22.5%, 30% and 37.5%. The apparent digestibility coefficients of crude protein and crude fat in diets were determined using a ...
