Abstract: The hematological and biochemical responses of pirarucu fingerlings (Arapaima gigas) fed with diets containing different concentrations of a glucomannan product derived from yeast and algae were evaluated in order to ascertain the effect of these diets on fish physiology. Four treatments were conducted, with three replications, with 12 fish in each tank. The product evaluated (MycosorbA+(r)) was incorporated into the commercial diet, at four concentrations: 0, 1, 2 and 4 g.kg-1, called M0%, M0.1%, M0.2% and M0… Show more

“…Pádua et al [13] demonstrated that O. niloticus fed diets supplemented with Aqute Fish™ ® had a higher survival rate, but occurred no effect on specific growth rate and weight gain. MycosorbA+ ® , a commercial immunostimulant containing mannanoligosaccharides derived from yeasts and algae did not have an effect on growth performance in A. gigas [2]. Conversely, Epinephelus coioides fed diet supplemented with S. cerevisiae showed improved weight gain and feed efficiency [22].…”

“…The previous studies indicated that S. cerevisiae-based products were efficient in promoting fish growth and potentially viable for aquaculture use from the production viewpoint. Physiological indicators of health [6,16] and immune status [2,6,10] are often used to evaluate the efficacy of dietary supplementation of feed additives. In the current study, VSI and HSI of A. gigas fed with different Aquate Fish™ ® levels were not altered, although plasma triglycerides, cholesterol and glucose increased in fish fed 12 g Aquate Fish™ ® .…”

“…The temperature at which the experimental units were subjected fluctuated from 26.5 to 27.0 °C, not showing significant statistical difference between them, and being slightly below of what was used by Hoshino et al (2017), but within the interval measured by Oliveira et al (2012). According to Hill & Lawson (2015), the optimal temperature for pirarucu growth vary from 24.0 to 31.0 °C, not tolerating temperatures below 16 °C.…”

“…Similarly, studies of parasitic fauna of Tambaqui hybrids ( Colossoma macropomum × Piaractus brachypomus and Colossoma macropomum × Piaractus mesopotamicus ) under cultivation conditions were also performed (Silva et al, 2013; Dias et al, 2015; Pinheiro et al, 2015; Winckler et al, 2015), as were studies of Arapaima ( Arapaima gigas ) specimens grown in Amazonia Peruvian (Delgado, Delgado & Orbe, 2013; Mathews et al, 2014) and in the Brazilian Amazon (Araújo et al, 2009; Marinho et al, 2013; Santos, Da Silva & Moravec, 2017), including those performed in the extreme north of Brazil (Amapá State) (Dias et al, 2015; Hoshino et al, 2017). In addition, research on the use of secondary metabolites of higher plants has also been undertaken to identify important factors for the better management and maintenance of aquaculture processes in the region (Brilhante et al, 2015; Barbas et al, 2016; Barbas et al, 2017; Ribeiro et al, 2016; Soares et al, 2017; Dutra et al, 2017).…”
