Golden mahseer, Tor putitora (Hamilton) and snow trout, Schizothorax richardsonii (Gray) were fed with diet containing chitin at 0 and 2 % level for a period of eight weeks. The control diet (without chitin) and the experimental diet (with 2 % chitin) were fed to triplicate groups of fishes having a mean initial body weight of 5.33 - 5.36 g for golden mahseer and 11.81 - 11.88 g for snow trout. In golden mahseer, net weight gain, specific growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and percentage survival were not significantly (p>0.05) different in fish fed with control and chitin supplemented diets. However, in snow trout, net weight gain, SGR and FCR were significantly (p Not Available |
