A completely randomized design, with 3×3 factorial arrangement, was conducted to test various ratios of dietary protein to energy (P/E) for rainbow trout, reared in brackish water. Three crude protein levels (35, 40 and 45%) and three energy levels (370, 400 and 430 Kcal/100g) at each protein level were utilized. Semi-purified diet containing fish meal, casein and gelatin as the sources o...

This study aims to determine the suitability of dried shrimp head as part of the ingredient in formulated diet to promote growth of sea cucumber in captivity. The sea cucumber Holothuria scabra were divided into two tanks to test two different diets: Diet A (commercial diet supplemented with dried shrimp waste) and Diet B (commercial diet without dried shrimp waste). A total of 20 pieces of H. ...

the application of nanotechnology in drug delivery and a variety of supplements is very impressive. in this regard, the use of this knowledge can be effective in the performance of medicinal plants in aquaculture. in the present study aloe vera was extracted and its nanoparticles were produced. three levels of aloe vera nanoparticles in siberian sturgeon (acipenser baerii) were evaluated for th...

an 84-day feeding trial was carried out onfingerling (4.44 ± 0.06 g) rainbow trout (oncorhynchusmykiss, walbaum, 1792) to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation with a commercial prebiotic grobiotic®-a (g-a) on the growth, feed efficiency, haematology and immunlogical parameters. ttreatments containing various inclusions of g-a (0 %, 0.5 %, 1.0 %, 1.5 %, 2.0 %, 2.5 %, and 3.0 %) were ad...
