Abstract

Formulations of nutritionally balanced and cost effective feeds for fish and shellfish is of paramount importance in boosting production through aquaculture. Locally available feed ingredients were used for the preparation of pelleted feeds. Water stability and sinking rate of the feed were studied for various durations. The study revealed that stability of the feed reduced while sinking rate increased after 6 months of storage period.
