The Effects of Tomato Pomace with Enzyme on Growth, Body Composition and Digestibility of Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)

This study was to evaluate growth performance, nutrients digestibility and body composition in common carp, Cyprinus carpio, fed different levels of tomato pulp supplemented with enzyme complex. This research was conducted in the frame of a completely randomized design with seven four treatments and three replicates each. The diets were formulated by exchanging 10, 20 and 30% of tomato pulp with soybean meal and wheat flour. The three experimental diets were made by inclusion of enzyme complex (at 0.4 g/kg) to the pulp diets. A diet with no enzyme and tomato pulp was considered as a control diet in the current study. The result showed that maximum growth in common carp was obtained with diet contained 10 % tomato pulp (P0.05).
