Abstract
The replacement of marine fish oil (MFO) with palm oil (PO) at different concentration viz., T1 (25%), T2 (50%), T3 (75%), T4 (100%) and C(without PO) in the diet of Cirrhius mrigala revealed that the mean growth values between the test diets T1 and T4 (p< 0.02) and T4 and C (p< 0.04) differ sinificantly (by Student’t - test). Whereas application of two way ANOVA of the data affirmed no significant difference in mean growth values between the test diets T1 and C (p<0.002), T2 and T3 (p<0.01), T2 and T4 (p<0.01), and T3 and T4 (p<0.02). However, the time bound variation showed significant difference except T4 and C. Different levels of inclusion of PO did not affect the muscle proximate composition in terms of moisture, protein, lipid and fibre content significantly when compared with Control.
Key words : Palm oil (PO), replacement, mrigal, diet
