  The study was undertaken to know the effect of algal oil as one of the diet ingredients for the betterment of growth, microbial identification and immunological parameters in the fish Daniorerio rerio. The oil was extracted from four micro algae such as Tetraselmis sp., Dunaliella sp., Pavlovasp sp., and Chaetoceros sp., The oil obtained from the four different algae were mixed with other feeding ingredients and fed to Zebra fish Daniorerio rerio. The water quality parameters like temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, ammonia (NH3), growth parameters such as weight (absolute growth rate, specific growth rate, food conversion ratio), food consumption and food conversion efficiency were studied biochemically in Daniorerio rerio. Bacterial clearance was evaluated and total viable count of bacteria in different parts o.. View More»
