This study aims to determine the growth rate of Salin tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) which is cultivated in a biofloc system using fermented vegetable waste feed. The experimental design used was completely randomized (CRD) with 4 treatments and 3 replications feed different doses prebiotics, treatment A Control, B 30 ml/kg, C 40 D 50 ml /kg. results showed that feeding had significantly effect (P&l...

— American White Pelicans ( Pelecanus erythrorhynchos ) are reported to consume large quantities of commercial catfish in Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi, negatively impacting aquaculture production. If pelicans consume a single item diet, such as catfish, nutritional deficiencies may result. Therefore, effects of monoand multi-species diets were examined to determine nutritional i...

Two hundred and forty Hubbard Classic broiler chicks were used in a 35 day trial at Chittagong Veterinary and Animal Science University farm, Bangladesh to study the effects of supplemental choline chloride on performance parameters, carcass characteristics and their association in commercial broiler. All birds had free access to ad libitum feeding. Birds were fed four types of diet i.e. diet w...

OBJECTIVES The objective of the present study was to investigate the lipid and the antioxidant regulatory potential of a multigrain diet in laboratory animals with reference to lipid profiles, tissue lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status. METHODS Two types of diets, with or without addition of cholesterol, were used in the study - a commercial diet and a formulated multigrain diet (with S...

Antibiotics have been used in poultry to improve growth performance but due to their side effects European Union has banned use of antibiotic as growth promoters in animal feed in 2006. Such situations has resulted in search for natural and safe alternatives, therefore, this study was undertaken to compare the efficacy of commercial herbal growth promoter as dietary inclusion on performance, mi...

A 70-day experiment was carried out to evaluate biofloc system operation with no carbon addition by manipulating dietary protein and lipid levels for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) cultivation. Three treatments were conducted; Control treatment (C; fed on a 30% crude [CP] diet supplemented 3% vegetable oil [VO] + of external source [ECS] in rearing tank), low protein–low (LPLL; 23% CP (VO...
