“…Throughout the experimental period, feed intake was high among the plant substituted diets compared to the normal diet. A lot of evidence has been presented that fishes are especially sensitive to the quality of feed and the presence of dietary anti-nutritional factors (Shakya, 2017). One of the most commonly encountered problems with alternative vegetable protein sources in aquaculture feeding is the palatability of fish.…”

An experiment was conducted in an earthen pond in the west region of Cameroon to investigate the level of replacing fish meal (FM) with lima bean meal (LBM) on zootechnic parameters in common carp fry. Four hundred and fifty fish weighing 0.91±0.03 g were divided into five groups of 90 fish each. In control group (LBM-0), fish received normal feed, while in four experimental groups, FM was replaced with LBM at 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% corresponding to LBM-10, LBM-20, LBM-30 and LBM-40. Fish were fed three times daily for 84 days. Every 14 days, fish were harvested for weight determination. The results obtained showed significant increases in weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR). After 84 days of feeding, fish fed in LBM-40 showed a WG of 6.47 ± 0.48 g and SGR of 2.70 ± 0.11%/d compared to LBM-0 (WG=3.52 ± 0.17 g and SGR=1.95 ± 0.08%/d), corresponding to a significant increases of 58.27% and 27.77% respectively. Concerning feed utilisation, LBM-10 produced the greatest effect with the lowest feed conversion ratio (FCR=0.71±0.05) and the highest protein efficiency ratio (PER=3.54±0.26) compared to LBM-0 (FCR=1.09±0.12 and PER=2.36 ± 0.25). These results showed that FM substitution with LBM improves growth and feed utilization in Cyprinus carpio fry.

“…The use of herbal substances is alternative prevention and curative that is environmentally friendly because the herbal substances will be easier to decompose in nature compared to antibiotics (Shakya, 2017). One of the herbal substances that can be used to overcome bacterial diseases is banana plant-based powder.…”

Asian sea bass is one of economically important commodities in aquaculture. However, its culture often challenged by vibriosis infection which resulted in lower production. The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the ambon banana plant powder application in feed as an effort to control the disease caused by Vibrio alginolyticus infection. Asian sea bass with total length of 7.48 ± 0.45 cm. Five different treatments were applied in this experiment, i.e. positive control, negative control, prevention, curative, and antibiotic application. The challenge test is carried out on the 15th day. Challenge test was performed with intramuscularly injection of V. alginolyticus at the cell density of 106 CFU/fish. The results showed the amount of feed consumption after the challenge test was highest in the curative and antibiotic control. However, these results were not significantly different (P>0.05) among preventive and curative treatments but were significantly different from controls (P<0.05). Fish treated with supplemented feed showed the highest total erythrocytes, total leukocytes, hemoglobin, respiratory burst, and lysozyme activity compared to controls. IL-1b gene expression increased after the challenge test with the highest level of expression in the curative treatment. It can be concluded that the administration of ambon banana plant powder (3 g/100 g diet) could control of V. alginolyticus infection in Asian sea bass and resulted 70.00% survival rate on prevention and 83.33% on curative treatments.

“…Previous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of herbal extracts on fish to attenuate stress response [ 1 ], improved immune system, enhanced gut tissue integrity [ 51 , 52 , 53 ], and increase feed digestibility and fish growth performance [ 1 , 54 ]. In this context, EOs have been studied for their several beneficial characteristics, such as antibacterial and anti-oxidant properties [ 55 ], and their ability to improve the feed conversion ratio by improved feed palatability [ 56 , 57 , 58 ], feed digestibility, and nutrient transport [ 57 ].…”

The current work was designed to assess the effect of feed supplemented with essential oils (EOs) on the histological features in sea bass’s gastric mucosa. Fish were fed three diets: control diet (CTR), HERBAL MIX® made with natural EOs (N-EOs), or HERBAL MIX® made with artificial EOs obtained by synthesis (S-EOs) during a 117-day feeding trial. Thereafter, the oxyntopeptic cells (OPs) and the ghrelin (GHR) and somatostatin (SOM) enteroendocrine cells (EECs) in the gastric mucosa were evaluated. The Na+K+-ATPase antibody was used to label OPs, while, for the EECs, anti-SOM and anti-GHR antibody were used. The highest density of OP immunoreactive (IR) area was in the CTR group (0.66 mm2 ± 0.1). The OP-IR area was reduced in the N-EO diet group (0.22 mm2 ± 1; CTR vs. N-EOs, p < 0.005), while in the S-EO diet group (0.39 mm2 ± 1) a trend was observed. We observed an increase of the number of SOM-IR cells in the N-EO diet (15.6 ± 4.2) compared to that in the CTR (11.8 ± 3.7) (N-EOs vs. CTR; p < 0.05), but not in the S-EOs diet. These observations will provide a basis to advance current knowledge on the anatomy and digestive physiology of this species in relation to pro-heath feeds.
