Abstract
To evaluate the digestibility of house fly maggot meal (magmeal) formulated reference diet (containing fishmeal as primary protein source) and a test diet (containing 70 reference diet 30 maggot meal) were fed to triplicate groups of tilapia and carp with initial average body weights of 108.332 and 110.323 g respectively. Faeces were collected over a period of 15 days by siphoning. The apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of magmeal calculated for tilapia (dry matter: 47.65 crude protein: 57.7 crude fat: 86.1; gross energy: 58.1) were significantly lower than that for carp (dry matter: 63.84 crude protein: 84.9 crude fat: 96.8 energy: 74.9). Spawning activities of experimental tilapia and soft faeces consistency of carp may have affected the results.
