Abstract

Incorporating algae oil into diets provides balanced nutrition and improves growth compared to traditional diets. Fry (2.00 ± 0.50g) and fingerling (10.0±2.0g) of rohu and grass carp were fed on diets formulated as 0.67%, 1.33% and 2% Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris) oil for two months. In growth, a significant difference (p=0.0198) was observed in final weight (FW) in fingerlings; however, feed conversion ratio (FCR) was significant (p=0.0003) in both fingerlings and fry (
