Abstract
Three test diets were prepared by partial replacement of fish meal with leaf powders of Eichhomia crassipes (Diet E), Colocasia escnlenta (Diet C) and Gliricidia maailata (Diet E). Test diets along with fish meal based control diet (Diet FM) were evaluated for their impacts on total tlsh production and organoleptic characteristics in two test species, viz., Catla catia and Labeo rohita after a period of culture of 112 days. Catia showed relatively higher production in fish meal based diet whereas rohu registered more production in leaf protein based diets. No significant difference existed in organoleptic characteristics of carps among treatments. However, the difference was significant (P < 0.05) between attributes except raw fish of lohu.
