Abstract

To study the effect of fatty acid from Schizochytrium sp. as a feed supplement for juvenile giant freshwater prawns, (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) was conducted by using 4 formulated diets to contain 0 (fish oil 2%), 2, 4 and 8 % Schizochytrium. The prawns were raised in the hatchery at Department of Fisheries, Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources for 60 days, compare to the prawns fed on commercial diet. It was found that the prawns fed on 0 % (fish oil 2%) showed percentage weight gain, average daily weight gain, specific growth rate and feed conversion ratios were not difference from the prawns fed on 2 and 4 % Schizochytrium (p > 0.05) but significantly different from that fed on 8 % and commercial diet (p < 0.05). But survival rates showed the best results at 2 % Schizochytrium which were not difference from the prawns fed on commercial diet (p > 0.05) but significantly different from the prawn fed on fish oil (2%), Schizochytrium 4 and 8 % (p < 0.05). This study showed that Schizochytrium sp. can be used to replace fish oil and indicated that supplement at 2 % was appropiate for growth performance and survival rate of M. rosenbergii juvenile.
