Abstract: Feed is a crucial thing to support the production and growth of catfish. Most catfish farmers still rely on commercial feed or factory feed. Meanwhile, factory feed prices are currently still relatively high. Maggots can be an alternative feed that meets the requirements as a protein source. Apart from Maggot, fish also need a source of vegetable protein such as tofu dregs which has the advantage of having chemical properties that are dominated by protein so that it can be used as an alternative feed ingredient. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of the combination of tofu dregs and maggot flour ( Hermetia illucens L) as an alternative on the growth of Sangkuriang catfish ( C. gariepinus var ) and to determine the percentage of the combination of tofu dregs and maggot flour ( Hermetia illucens L) that can provide the best growth influence on the growth of Sangkuriang catfish ( C. gariepinus var ). This research used an experimental method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of 5 treatments with 4 replications. The frequency of feeding is 2 times a day, namely morning and evening. Measurement of length, weight, viability and water quality, once every 15 days. The results of the research showed that there was a combination effect between maggot pellets and tofu dregs. The best combination percentage was in treatment D (25% tofu dregs + 75% maggot flour) with an average length and weight of fish of 3.86 cm and 6.24 kg with a survival rate of 100%.
