    Effect of Phyllanthus emblica (Amla) on growth performance and hematological parameters of Labeo rohita (Hamilton, 1822)
    (CCS HAU, Hisar, 2022-07) Satendra Kumar; Gajender Singh
    The present study was conducted with different concentrations of amla fruit powder incorporated with commercial feed. Amla fruit powder is rich in vitamin C and potent antioxidant ingredients that are supplemented to fish feed to balance the oxidative state, get away with free radical intermediates, boost the immune system and positively impact the health status of fish. The current study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of Amla fruit powder as a natural immune-stimulant and antioxidant to determine the ideal dosage for the better growth and survival of Labeo rohita fry kept in captivity. A total of 120 L. rohita fry with an average weight of 2.8 g were used in this experiment. They were acclimatized for 15 days to the laboratory conditions fed with the commercial diet before the start of the investigation and divided into four groups. The experimental groups were categorized as group control, Treatment 1 (50g amla fruit powder per kg feed), treatment T2 (100g amla fruit powder per kg feed), and treatment T3 (150g amla fruit powder per kg feed). In the present study, we have evaluated the growth parameters (Length, weight, FCR, SGR, survival rate), hematological parameters (Total Erythrocyte Count, Total Leukocyte Count and Haemoglobin) of L. rohita fry fed with different experimental diets. The water quality parameters were monitored daily throughout the study period. The result showed that the growth parameters (length, weight, FCR, SGR, and survival rate) and hematological parameters like leukocyte count, erythrocytes count, hemoglobin content and haematocrit value were elevated in the T2 group as compared to the control. There was no mortality have been reported in any experimental groups. So we can say that amla fruit powder incorporated diet ameliorated growth performance and hematological parameters L. rohita fry.
