Earthworm powder as extra fish food.

Earthworm powder as extra fish food. The optimization of protein content in earthworm-based fish feed formulation was investigated in the study Full factorial design (FFD) and central composite design (CCD) were used as a statistical tool to screen the range of the selected parameters and to optimize the process respectively Three components were combined in the fish feed formulation namely earthworm powder chicken guts and soybean waste as the protein source The optimum nutritional values were obtained at 25% 25% and 595% for earthworm powder soybean waste and chicken guts
