Abstract
Moist pellet feed for breeding fish comprising (A) not less than 50 parts by weight of a raw feed, (B) not more than 50 parts by weight of a powdery mixed feed, and (C) a sodium carboxymethyl cellulose which has free carboxylic acid groups in the molecule and which, as a 1% aqueous solution at 25.degree. C., has a viscosity of not less than 1000 cps, wherein an equivalent ratio of free carboxylic acid groups to sodium carboxylate groups in said sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is preferably from 0.005:1 to 0.02:1, and the amount of said component (C) is from 0.5 to 10% by weight based on the total amount of said components (A) and (B). By using the specific binding agent, the moist pellet feed has a proper hardness and little to not stickiness.
