“…Also, it is clear that there is a direct relationship between chemical composition and condition of fish. The results obtained by Naeem and Ishtiaq (2011) confirm the fact that proximate composition of fishes varies with species, body size and condition factor.…”

This study was carried out between May 2011 and February 2012 in order to determine the effect of environmental parameters on physical and chemical quality of water, fish condition as well as fish quality in Lake Edku. Fish condition; lengthweight relation, condition factor and hepatosomatic index of three cichlid species (O. niloticus, O. aureus and T. zillii) were studied. Also, fish quality as heavy metals accumulation and proximate body composition for muscle tissue of these species were estimated. Physico-chemical parameters were in normal ranges for fish culture and revealed that the lake water showed differences among different seasons. Concentrations of metals in fish muscles have been changed seasonally with higher values recorded during autumn and winter. However, these concentrations are still in the safety permissible levels for human consumption. The best condition and proximate body composition of fish were recorded in spring and winter seasons. According to the results of this study, the most important environmental parameters affecting water characteristics, fish condition and quality in Lake Edku were water temperature, nutrients and drainage water discharged into the lake.

“…That's why the growth of Cirrhinusmrigalais independent of the depth of pond [13]. The average values of protein, water, ash and fats in Cirrhinusmrigaladetermined in the whole wet body weight were almost similar to the values of overall means of body constituents of many other fish species [14]. Similar results were found by Salam et al,in P.gonionotusand Mazumderet al,in Amblypharyngodon mola, Gucluria chapra [15,16].…”

“…Percentage fat content (wet weight), protein and organic contents in case of wet weight and dry weight increased and there was no impact on the ash content with the increasing growth of fish and these findings are compatible with many previous findings. In larger sized fish, higher percentage of protein and fat contents has been reported in Oreochromis mossambicus.Several workers find success to calculate the approximate body composition of fish by using condition factor [13,14,17] and most of the investigators are also unsuccessful to determine the close correlation between condition factor and body components [18]. In Oreochromis niloticusinsignificant relationship between % water, protein and fat was found by Naeem et al,(2010).…”

Present study was undertaken to observe the influence of dietary protein on proximate body composition of Mori (Cirrhinusmrigala) from Govt. Fish Hatchery, Mian Chanu, District Khanewal. Mean percentage values for water, fat, protein and ash contents determined in the whole wet body weight of Cirrhinusmrigala were 76.86, 2.91, 16.89 and 3.33% respectively. Higher average protein, fat, ash and minimum water percentage were observed with increasing crude protein in artificial fed. Percentage of fat, ash, protein and water observed (35% crude protein) was 3.18%, 2.87%, 18.48% and 75.46% respectively. This was estimated that with the increase of protein level in diet, fish highly grow in size. Body composition of fish was affected with dietary protein in artificial diet. The information of these parameters helps to select Cirrhinusmrigala as major diet because it contains higher protein content and is suitable for human consumption.

“…Insignificant relationships have also been found between condition factor with percent water and fat in the hatchery reared Tor putitora (Naeem et al, 2010a); with percent water, protein and fat in Oreochromis niloticus (Naeem et al, 2010b); and with percent water, fat and protein in wild Colisa lalia (Naeem et al, 2010c). However, reported significant relationships for the condition factor with percent water, protein and fat in Aristichthys nobilis.…”

Proximate composition of small catfish, Mystus bleekeri, from Nala Daik, Sialkot, Pakistan was investigated and fluctuation in relation to body size and condition factor was carried out. Mean percentages for water, fat, protein and ash contents in the whole wet body weight of wild M. bleekeri were 77.87, 3.26, 15.01 and 3.87%, respectively. Body composition of the fish was effected by body size; however, condition factor remains constant with observed body constituents (% water, fat, protein, ash and organic contents). Highly significant (P<0.001) correlation Found between percentage water and percentage fat, protein, ash and organic contents in both wet and dry body weight. Investigation of body size on body constituents Reflected decrease in relative amount of water, skeleton (wet and dry weight), increase in fat (dry weight), protein, organic contents (wet and dry weight), and no effect on fat (wet weight) with growth of fish. Additionally, the first reference for proximate composition for M. bleekeri is provided.
