Maharani lake is one of them situated in the town near Maharani Janki Kuer College named after last queen of the Bettiah Raj. West Champaran is an District of Bihar, located just 60 km west of Birgunj. The cultured fish is negatively influencing the efficiency of fish production from aquaculture. Hence, the major factors influencing feed intake by cultured fish are discussed. These factors include management practices, environment conditions, feed quality, inherent genetic factor and physiological condition of the fish. The review would help to increase basic knowledge on the nutrition (with emphasis on feed intake) of aquaculture species for improved management and productivity.
