In present study the effect of feeding frequency on some health aspects (biologicalparameters) of fingerling of common carp were investigated. Three groups of common carp(average weight4.31±0.1 g) designed with three feeding frequencies one meal a day (D1),two meals a day (D2) and three meals a day (D3) with three replicates of each treatment. Fishin experimental treatments were fed by 4% of body weight. No significant differencesobserved in Hepatosomatic Index, Gill Index and muscle ratio (Weight without Viscera andWeight without Viscera & Head) in all feeding frequencies, feeding one and two time perday were significantly higher than three times/ day in each of Kidney index and SpleenIndex. Intestine weight index was significantly higher in T2 and T3, Intestine Length Indexwas higher significantly in T3.
