Nutritional characteristics of fish flesh, such as, proximate composition and organoleptic characteristics of fish grown in Eichhornia and Colocasia leaf powder diets as well as fishmeal based control diet were evaluated after 8 weeks of laboratory experiment. Significant difference (P < 0.05) was observed in crude protein and crude fat levels in fish flesh. Moisture and lipid level were inversely related. Organoleptic evaluation indicated significant difference (P < 0.05) in overall quality of flesh in raw fish in different treatments whereas it was not significant in cooked fish. There was no significant difference in overall quality of fish flesh in treatments having 20% and 30% level of incorporation of leaf powder in pellet feed.Downloads
