“…This condition has also been reported for white seabream [21], in zebra seabream [22], in sharpsnout seabream [24,42], and in Blackfin seabream [31]. The finding in the present study for the feed intake in salema porgy is in agreement with earlier reports, in terms of increased feed intake (p<0.05) with the decrease of protein levels in the diets.…”

“…In the present study, the FCRs of salema porgy linearly increased with the declining dietary protein levels. This is in agreement with the findings in white seabream [21], in sharpsnout seabream [24], and in Blackfin seabream [31]. In contrast, increased FCRs in zebra seabream [22] and gilthead seabream [43] were reported with increased dietary protein levels.…”

“…The findings in this study regarding nitrogen retention rates per intake (37-42%) in best performing protein groups are in close agreement with earlier reports in European seabass fed different ration levels (36-43%) [50], in rainbow trout (18-46%) [51], Atlantic turbot (28-36% and 36-42%) [52,53], the Black Sea turbot (38-40%, 19-41%, and 29-30%) [54][55][56]. Lower retention rate of nitrogen per intake have been reported in Blackfin seabream (20-40%) [31], zebra seabream (19-26%) [22], European seabass (23-32% and 16-26%) [57,58]. Wilson [59] reported that the optimal protein level in fish diet might be affected by the amino acid composition of the test proteins.…”

“…Similar to the findings in the present study, protein requirements for two-banded seabream (Diplodus vulgaris) were reported between 35-36% in earlier studies [23,30], while a lower protein level of 27% was recorded for juvenile white seabream (Diplodus sargus) [21]. In contrast, higher protein levels for best growth were found for other sparids such as Blackfin seabream (Acanthopagrus berda) (42%) [31], zebra seabream (D. cervinus) (43.8%) [22], and sharsnout seabream (Diplodus puntazzo) (43-47%) [24,32]. Tacon and Cowey [33] reported that generally fast growing fish species require higher protein levels in their diets compared to the slow growing species.…”

Abstract:In the present study, the effects of different dietary protein levels on salema porgy, Sarpa salpa (Linnaeus, 1758) juveniles were investigated. Six iso-caloric (20 kJ/g diet) diets with increasing protein levels (30, 37, 40, 47, 50, and 57%) were formulated. Each test diet was randomly fed to triplicate groups of 13 juvenile fish (initial mean weight 19.28±0.13 g) to satiety over 90 days. Growth performance and feed utilization were best with low dietary protein levels of 30 and 37%, but decreased with diets containing protein levels over 40%. Ammonia nitrogen excretion showed an increasing trend as dietary protein levels gradually increased, whereas retention rates of ammonia nitrogen per intake were highest in the low protein groups of 30 or 37%. The analyses of specific growth rate by broken-line regression indicated that the optimal dietary level of protein for salema porgy juvenile were 33.6% under the conditions applied in this study. As a result, S. salpa demonstrated better growth with low protein diets, showing that this marine fish could be a promising candidate for a sustainable and environment friendly aquaculture industry.

Silvery-black porgy (Sparidentex hasta) is recognized as one of the most promising fish species for aquaculture diversification in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea regions. In this regard, S. hasta has received considerable attention, and nutritional studies focused on establishing the nutritional requirements for improving diet formulation have been conducted during recent years. Considering the results from different dose-response nutritional studies on macronutrient requirements conducted in this species, it can be concluded that diets containing ca. 48% crude protein, 15% crude lipid, 15% carbohydrates and 20 KJ g −1 gross energy are recommended for on-growing S. hasta juveniles. In addition, the optimum essential amino acid profile for this species (expressed as g 16 g N −1 ), should be approximately arginine 5.3, lysine 6.0, threonine 5.2, histidine 2.5, isoleucine 4.6, leucine 5.4, methionine + cysteine 4.0 (in a diet containing 0.6 cysteine), phenylalanine + tyrosine 5.6 (in a diet containing 1.9 tyrosine), tryptophan 1.0 and valine 4.6. Moreover, the optimum dietary n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and soybean lecithin are recommended to be 0.8% and 6%, respectively. The maximum replacement of fish meal with soy protein is recommended to be between 16.5% and 27.3%. In addition, different vegetal oil sources are also recommended for partial and almost complete replacement of fish oil in diets. Although the nutritional requirements in terms of macronutrients have been established under laboratory conditions, the analysis of the available literature indicate that future studies need to be conducted using a more holistic approach under intensive farming conditions in which different nutrients or additives need to be tested under different rearing conditions for refining nutrient requirements in this species.

Evaluation of Dietary Protein Level in Practical Feed for Twoband Bream Diplodus vulgaris

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The effects of different dietary protein levels on growth performance and health status of TwobandBream Diplodus vulgaris juveniles were investigated. Three test diets that had increasing protein levels (30, 36, and 42%) and used fish meal as the protein source were formulated. Each of the test diets was fed in triplicate groups of 28 juvenile fish (initial weight, 23.65 ± 0.34 [mean ± SD]) to satiety for a period of 80 d. Growth performance and feed utilization were best in the group fed the diet with a protein level of 36%. Ammonia nitrogen excretion showed an increasing trend as dietary protein levels increased, and retention rates of ammonia nitrogen per intake were highest in fish fed the 42% protein diet. Whole‐body proximate composition and hematological variables were not significantly affected by protein level in the diets. However, serum glucose, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) values were significantly affected by dietary protein level and showed an increasing trend as the dietary protein level in the diets increased. As a result, an improved health status of Twoband Bream was observed in the fish fed a 36% protein level.
