“…As described in Chapter 2, unusually among vertebrates, fish often have taste buds both in the mouth and pharynx and on the lips, barbels, fin rays and on the skin, particularly in the head region close to the mouth (Hara 2006;Lamb 2001;Kasumyan & Døving 2003;Ishimaru et al 2005). In sturgeon, extraoral gustatory receptors are used to determine the palatability of food, with a preliminary investigation being essential to induce feeding behaviour; following this the final assessment of palatibility is made using the oral gustatory receptors (Kasumyan & Døving 2003).…”

“…As described above, chemoreception plays an important role in the food searching behaviour of many fish species (Lamb 2001;Rust 2002;Kasumyan & Døving 2003) and a nutritionally balanced feed may not support good rates of growth if it is deficient in chemicals that induce food searching and capture. For many fish, visual cues are important for locating and identifying food.…”

Aquaculture and Behavior

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This chapter, the first of three dealing with feeding behaviour, describes the different kinds of food that fish eat and the many different ways in which this is harvested. The sensory cues used by fish to locate food are considered, as well as the trophic apparatus used to gather and consume food and the way these are adapted to the kinds of food being eaten. The development of effective feeding movements as fish grow and as their nutritional needs change and the role of genetic variation and differential experience in determining fish foraging are also considered. The benefits and costs of eating different food types and of using different foraging strategies and the way these are balanced to enhance Darwinian fitness are described. Attention then shifts to the implications of natural foraging behaviour for aquaculture. Information is given on how cultured fish species are fed and on problems for production, welfare and the environment that arise from the expression of natural feeding behaviour in an aquaculture context. Some effects of domestication and captive rearing on the foraging of cultured fish are also described. Finally, an account is given of possible solutions to these various problems, based on a knowledge of the natural behaviour of the species concerned.

“…It seems that the gustatory system is the most important in acquisition and ingestion of food and with the rejection of potentially harmful and toxic substances. 8 The gustatory system, which is highly developed in several fish species, also consists of taste buds in the epithelia of the oropharynx Fig. 1, Table 2.…”

Nutrition and feeding influence growth, reproduction, and health of fish and their response to physiologic and environmental stressors and pathogens. The basics of fish metabolism are similar to those of warm-blooded animals in that they involve food intake, digestion, absorption, and transport of nutrients to the various tissues. Fish, however, being the most primitive form of vertebrates, possess some distinguishing features, such as the absence of a stomach in certain species, lack of mandibular teeth, and nondifferentiated small and large intestines. Some major physiologic and metabolic differences between other vertebrates and fish include the mechanisms involved in intestinal cell wall absorption by pinocytosis, metamorphosis in larval fish development, and the shift in osmoregulation in salmonids during sea water adaptation, carbohydrate metabolism, nitrogen excretion, and skeletal development. Unlike warm-blooded animals, which are homoeothermic, fish are poikilothermic, so their body temperature and metabolic rate depends on the water temperature. Environmental temperature influences energy expenditure and nutrient intake. At low temperatures, the cell membranes of fish remain fluid because of the incorporation of high amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids from dietary fish oils and other lipid sources. Many fish efficiently use protein and lipid for energy rather than carbohydrates. Fish are also unique among vertebrates in their ability to absorb minerals not only from their diets but also from water through their gills and skin.
