| Abstract | The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of mash feed, sinking feed and floating feed on growth performance, feed utilization and hematology of Nile tilapia (O. niloticus). The study was assigned in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three treatments and four replicates. Fish with average weight 13.30? 0.85 g. (means ? SD) were fed three experimental diets mash feed, sinking feed and floating feeds that had same feed formula and proximate composition. The fish were fed experimental diets at the rate of 3.0-5.0 % of their body weight per day, twice daily for four weeks. At the end of the experiment, there were no significant (P>0.05) differences between the treatments in weight gain (WG), average daily gain (ADG), feed conversion ratio (FCR). Specific Growth rate (SGR) was significantly (P< 0.05) different among the treatments. The high SGR was found in fish fed floating feed, followed by fish fed sinking feed, whereas lower value was found in mash feed. Fish fed floating and sinking feed exhibited a significant (p<0.05) higher level of serum protein. In this case, the level of serum protein was lower in mash feed. However, no significant differences (P>0.05) were observed for red blood cell (RBC) count, hemoglobin (Hb) concentration, hematocrit (Ht) percentage and immunoglobin (IgM) level. Results from this study demonstrated that fish fed floating and sinking feed both had better growth performance (p<0.05) than fish fed mash feed. |
