Feed contributes to nearly 70% of the total production cost in aquaculture industries. This study aims to determine the effect of Moringa leaf extract and probiotics ( Lactobacillus acidophilus ) supplementation in commercial feed on protein content and crude fat content of Tambaqui fish, Colossoma macropomum . This study used a factorial completely randomized design consisting of 3 × 3 treatments with 3 treatments. Fish were cultured for 30 days each. The results showed that the administration of Moringa leaf extract at different doses had a significant effect on crude protein content, but did not have a significant effect on crude fat content. Other results showed that there was a significant effect of probiotic supplementation crude fat content, but had a significant effect on the protein content of Tambaqui. The best interaction treatment was A2B0 treatment with crude protein value 19.93% and A0B1 treatment with crude fat value 1.49%.
