Usually, it is either freshly cooked or made into various dish including fermented fish called pekasam. This study was done to determine proximate composition, macromineral composition and micromineral composition in climbing perch from 3 states in Peninsular Malaysia. Fish with average body weight 73.18 g and total body length 15.93 m were sampled randomly from fish markets in Terengganu, Selangor and Perak. Proximate composition analysis was carried out using the AOAC method to assess the percentage (%) of protein, fat, moisture and ash. In addition, mineral composition analysis was conducted by using ICP-OES to study the concentration of Ca, P, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, and Cr in mg / kg in fish. Results from the analysis have been compared and analyzed using one-way ANOVA. The study found moisture content was the highest in Selangor (76.56 ± 0.44) % while ash and protein were higher in Perak`s fish (26.98 ± 0.21) % and (43.19 ± 0.81) % respectively. Terengganu`s fish contained the highest fat content at 17.19 ± 1.54 %. Perak`s fish demonstrated the highest macromineral content (Ca, P and Mg) which were 84336.87 ± 1525.41 mg/kg, 46843.90 ± 172.13 mg/kg and 1203.96 ± 10.45 mg/kg respectively. Perak`s fish also showed the highest content of micromineral (Fe and Cu) at (31.31 ± 0.09) mg/kg and (1.52 ± 0.00) mg/kg while Selangor`s fish showed the highest content of Zn and Mn (32.61 ± 0.64) mg/kg and (28.05 ± 0.57) mg/kg. In conclusion, climbing perch caught from Perak and Selangor might be good sources of macromineral and micromineral for human consumption. 7 4 59-63
