ABSTRACT

This project details the results of a research work carried out to develop fish feed compounded from locally available materials in the institute of oceanography fish farm and analyzed its nutritional values, in the biochemistry department all in the University of Calabar. On the basis of the feed production, it is recommended that the feeding regime of the animal (fish) for intended culture is known, a dry diet formulation of two distinct feed lines was produced (fingerlings and adult), and that the diet was produced in the fish farm. Results shows that experimental feeds required crude protein content for sample A is 44.63±0.01 and that of sample B 35.1±0.1 details of the formulations are fully described.
