Abstract

 In this study, in order to evaluate the effect of substitution of fish meal for poultry wastes, three meal diet along with a control diet in crumbles were used in a completely randomized design and formulation.For this purpose, 450 Taylor Green (Andinocara rivulatus) fishes with average weight and length 09.0±0.0 (gr) and (cm) 921.1±07.0 respectively were used. Three experimental diets at levels of 25, 50, 75% flour, meal replacement products crumbles with the control group in 4 groups each with three replications were examined. These experiments elapsed for 97 days. During expriment, the fish  were investigated every 15 for measuring their growth factors. The length, weight, length and weight-specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, condition factor, the estimated survival rate of voluntary nutrition, growth factor treatments of these fishes were examined daily As the results of this study showed, there is no significance between the treatments and control groups (0.05<P). It also showed that replacement of fish meal in place of flour replacement level of 50% poultry waste can substitute for fish meal in the diet is considered Greene Taylor.
