The study aims to determine the effect of feeding in the form of household waste and tofu dregs used as maggot food in making feed on the results of chemical tests of fish feed. The research design used in this study was a completely randomized design consisting of 4 treatments, and each treatment was repeated 3 times. The treatments used in this study were Treatment A: Maggots were fed from restaurant waste; Treatment B: Maggots were fed from tofu dregs waste; Treatment C: Maggots were fed a combination of household waste and tofu dregs waste; and Treatment K: Commercial feed. The feed that had been made was then tested precisely to determine the quality of the fish feed. The data obtained were then processed and analyzed using ANOVA statistical analysis. Based on the results of the proximate test of fish feed, the recommended treatment is treatment C, which is feed made from maggots fed with restaurant waste and tofu dregs in equal proportions of 50% each. Therefore, in making fish feed, it can be recommended that household waste and tofu dregs be used as maggot food for fish.
