- Abstract
Experiment was conducted in triplicate groups on freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii juvenile (0.84±0.01g) to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of mannan oligosaccharide on growth and survival. The different dietary mannan oligosaccharide levels were used 0.0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 g kg-1 diet. After 60 days of feeding there was significant (p < 0.05) increment in terms of weight, weight gain, specific growth, survival percentage and lower FCR recorded in 1.5 g kg-1 mannan oligosaccharide supplemented group as compared to other groups. The results imply the positive effect of dietary supplementation of mannan oligosaccharide (1.5 g kg-1) in the culture of freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii.
