“…Impaired growth in fish that were fed diets containing higher copper levels have also been reported due to toxicity in fishes such as grouper (Lin et al, ); yellow catfish (Tan et al, ); beluga (Mohseni et al, ); Russian sturgeon (Wang et al, ); Nile tilapia (Damasceno et al, ); spotted snakehead (Hameid et al, ); and hybrid tilapia (Tang et al, ). Lower growth due to lower feed intake of diets containing higher levels of copper as evident in the present study was also reported in various other fishes such as mullet (Baker, Handy, Davies, & Snook, ), yellow catfish (Tan et al, ), red sea bream (El‐Basuini et al, ), Nile tilapia (Damasceno et al, ). Pro‐oxidation action of dietary copper leading to dietary lipid peroxidation and an apparent decline in palatability (Baker et al, ) may be responsible for this behaviour of refusing feed.…”

“…The estimated requirement for H. fossilis (5.24–5.68 mg/kg diet) is apparently lower than the requirements reported for various fish such as Atlantic salmon (8.5–13.7 mg/kg, Lorentzen, Maage, & Julshamn, ); beluga (10.3 mg/kg, Mohseni et al, ); Russian sturgeon (7–8 mg/kg, Wang et al, ), comparable to spotted snakehead (6.66–6.78 mg/kg, Hameid et al, ); channel catfish (5 mg/kg, Gatlin & Wilson, ) and higher than reported for rainbow trout and common carp (3 mg/kg, Ogino & Yang, ); grouper (2–3 mg/kg, Lin et al, ); red sea bream (2 mg/kg, El‐Basuini et al, ); yellow catfish (3.13–4.24 mg/kg, Tan et al, ); and grass carp (4.70–4.95 mg/kg, Tang et al, ). These variations in the dietary copper requirements may also be the result of the differences in the type of diets, stage and species of fish, form of supplemented copper, rearing water copper concentration, selection of various response indicators, experimental design, tenure and different statistical models used.…”

“…Copper (Cu), an essential micronutrient, is one of the important minerals required in carrying out several chief biological processes like bone formation, haemoglobin synthesis and myelin maintenance within the nervous system (El‐Basuini et al, ; Hameid, Zehra, & Khan, ; Tan, Luo, Liu, & Xie, ). It also serves as a cofactor for structural as well as catalytic properties of various enzymes such as lysyl oxidase, superoxide dismutase cytochrome oxidase, ceruloplasmin, dopamine hydroxylase and tyrosinase (Tang et al, ; Watanabe, Kiron, & Satoh, ).…”

Dietary copper requirement of Heteropneustes fossilis (6.74 ± 0.03 g) was determined by feeding purified diets containing same protein (400 g/kg) and gross energy (17.89 kJ/g) but different levels of copper for 12 weeks. Graded amount of CuSO4.5H2O (0, 1.96, 3.93, 5.89, 7.86, 9.82, 11.79 mg/kg) was supplemented to basal diet to attain desired dietary copper levels (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 mg/kg). Analysed dietary copper concentrations were 4.28, 4.63, 5.28, 5.70, 6.19 and 6.69 mg/kg. Absolute weight gain, feed conversion ratio and protein gain improved with the increasing levels of dietary copper up to 5.28 mg/kg. Further inclusion of copper at a level of 5.70 mg/kg did not improve the above parameters. Significantly higher (p < .05) plasma ceruloplasmin, liver copper‐zinc superoxide dismutase, catalase activities and lower thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were evident in fish receiving diets with 5.28 and 5.70 mg/kg copper compared to other groups. Whole body and liver copper concentrations increased significantly (p < .05) with increasing dietary copper levels. Quadratic regression analysis of absolute weight gain, feed conversion ratio, protein gain and broken‐line regression analysis of plasma ceruloplasmin activity and liver TBARS value against the variable dietary copper levels depicted the dietary copper requirements for fingerling H. fossilis in the range of 5.24–5.68 mg/kg.

“…Every trace mineral components are having their specific role in immunity of cultured animals, but the crucial trace metals that have been associated with an improvement in immunity or function that support immunity are Zn, Mn, Cu and Se (El Basuini et al . , 2017). The immune system uses several methods to detoxify these foreign agents or antigens.…”

The use of antibiotics in the aquafeeds to mitigate infectious diseases or to boost growth performance is commonly practiced. Recently, the prophylactic use of antibiotics and chemotherapies have been criticized which eventually led to their ban in aquaculture by law on many countries. In view of the current restrictions on antibiotic use, there is a critical need to evaluate other possible alternatives. One potential substitute for antibiotics in aquafeeds is the use of functional feed additives. The present review is a comprehensive and an updated compilation of the available works on different feed additives, their examples, modes of action and useful applications for improving aquafeeds. It highlights several functional feed additives including probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, immunostimulants, organic acids, nucleotides and medicinal herbs. Apart from boosting aquafeeds and safeguarding general health of aquatic animals, some of these substances have been found to possess beneficial immunostimulant and anti‐stress relieving properties. Furthermore, the use of these natural substances increases the consumer confidence of farmed fish. Due care has been taken to cover the on‐going trends and recent advances with a perspective vision and their holistic usages and beneficial applications in aquatic animals’ systems. The current study also shed light regarding the management and production aspects of aquatic animals which will enlighten farmers and producers for better economic growth.

“…For 56 days, fish were maintained under natural light/dark regime, fed by hand (twice daily) until apparent visual satiation level, and the main water quality parameters were as follows: temperature 25.3 ± 1.6°C, salinity 33.8 ± 0.5 g/L, dissolved oxygen 6.23 ± 0.3 mg/L and pH 7.5. These ranges were considered within optimal values for juvenile red sea bream (El Basuini, et al, ).…”

The effect of rapeseed meal (RM) and Aspergillus oryzae fermented rapeseed meal (RM‐Koji) on red sea bream (Pagrus major) was examined. Three groups of fish (initial weight, 4.5 ± 0.02 g) were fed a basal diet (RM0) and two test diets where half of fishmeal was replaced by RM (RM50) and RM‐Koji (FRM50) for 56 days. The obtained results showed that fish fed RM0 and FRM50 exerted significantly higher growth performance, feed utilization and haemoglobin level but lower triglyceride and cholesterol than RM50 group (p < 0.05). Interestingly, except of antiprotease activity, all the immune parameters including lysozyme, respiratory burst (NBT) and bactericidal activities were significantly increased in fish fed RM0 and FRM50 diets compared to RM50 diet (p < 0.05). In addition, malondialdehyde and reactive oxygen metabolites were significantly reduced in RM0 and FRM50 groups over RM50 group (p < 0.05). The present results suggest that fermented RM induced better growth performance and immune responses than feeding red sea bream with non‐fermented RM and both RM and RM‐Koji improved the antioxidative status of fish, making RM‐Koji an interesting candidate as a functional feed for aquatic animals.
