The conventional fish feed comprising 1:1 groundnut oil cake and rice bran by weight was enriched with an aquatic weed (Salvinia sp.) powder, blood meal and sugar wastes and two test diets were prepared with a protein level of 28-29%. Diet A was composed of bloodmeal, ricebran, and groundnut oil cake (1:3:6) while Diet B of groundnut oil cake, salvinia powder sand sugar wastes (8:1:1). All the experimental diets were fortified with vitamins and minerals. The two diets were tested against the conventional feeds in a laboratory trial run of 60 days on fry of Labeo rohita (Ham.). Significantly improved growth (P0.01) was observed from the feed with bloodmeal compared to the other two diets.
