Abstract

Fresh water fishes Clarias gariepinus, Channa punctuates, Glossogobius giuris, Oreochromis mossambicus and Xenentodon cancila were collected from the Veeranam Lake, located at Cuddalone dist during period of January 2017 to June 2017. They were brought into the laboratory and then scarified for further studies. The tissue was processed for protein, carbohydrate and lipids estimations. It is used for the determination of their protein nutritive value of fresh water fishes. The result of the proximate composition showed as protein had a value of 13.4 ±4.4, 10.0 ± 3.8, 12.3 ± 2.6, 10.03 ± 3.8 and 11.1 ± 4.0; While carbohydrate 5.0 ± 2.3, 11.6± 1.15, 10.0± 3.4, 9.0 ±2.3, 8.3 ±2.8 and lipid 2.85 ±1.08, 2.43 ± 1.25, 4.02 ± 2.02, 1.02 ± 0.08, 2.45 ± 0.58 respectively. This result shows that taste, size and other related external appearances should not be the only factors to be considered in making choice for marketing and consumption of fishes. The result obtained in this study has provided scientific information and detailed knowledge of the proximate composition of these five important fish species.
