“…This was in line with a previous study with fry of European seabass, Dicentrarchus labrax where the growth, survival and feed utilization were positively affected by the addition of carotenoids (Sallam, Mansour, Srour, & Goda, 2017). The result revealed that the fish improved growth performance when diet was supplemented with ML which was similar with previous studies in red swordtail Xiphophorus helleri (Ezhil, Jeyanthi, & Narayanan 2008), golden pompano, Trachinotus ovatus (Xie et al, 2017) and yellowtail cichlid, Pseudotropheus acei (Guroy, Sahin, Mantoglu, & Kayali, 2012). Furthermore, the specific growth rate of koi carp, Cyprinus carpio significantly improved and decrease FCR even when 180 mg kg -1 marigold meal included as the dietary carotenoid source Swian, Ratnamanjari, Meshram, Mishra, & Shivananda (2014).…”

“…It has been used to replace up to 40% of fish meal protein in tilapia O. mossambicus and up to 7% in parrot fish Oplegnathus fasciatus [46,47]. Nandeesha et al [48] and Guroy et al [49] reported that body weight gain of fish increased linearly with increasing the level of algae in fish diet at levels less than 25%. On the contrary Ungsethaphand et al [50] recorded in significant improvement in growth performance of hybrid tilapia after Spirulina supplementation.…”

Sixty days feeding trial was carried out to investigate the supplemental effects of dietary phytobiotic mixture composed of Spirulina platensis powder (SP) and Garlic powder (GP) on the growth performance, intestinal morphometry, and immune responses of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. A total of 240 cultured O. niloticus (41.4 ± 0.09 g) were randomly divided into four experimental groups (three replicate/group), fed on basal diets contain 0% (control), 1% (SP), 0.5% (GP), or a combination of both (SP + GP). Fish group fed on phytobiotic mixture showed significant improvements in its feed intake, live weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio (p<0.05), associated with a healthy gut, compared to non-supplemented control. Dietary supplementation of phytobiotics appeared to stimulate the humoral and cellular innate immunity. Fish group that were fed on phytobiotic mixture revealed up-regulation in some immune related genes; TNF-α and liver hepcidin as well as it exhibited the least cumulative mortality % upon A. hydrophila infection. So we can conclude that dietary supplementation of garlic and Spirulina have been improved the growth performance, gut health, immune status and disease resistance in Nile tilapia.

“…Furthermore, the specific growth rate of yellowtail cichlid significantly improved even when Spirulina meal included solely as the dietary carotenoid source (Guroy et al, 2012). The improvement in the performance parameters for the growth of shrimp fed with diets supplemented with the carotenoid mixture in the present study may be due to the role of carotenoid as an antioxidant (Pan et al, 2010) and its involvement in intermediary metabolism (Talebi et al, 2013).…”

Carotenoids, besides as a natural pigment, may have vital roles in the growth of crustacean. The aim of this study was to clarify the influence of combined carotenoids given since pre-maturation stage on the growth performances, pigmentation and biochemical composition of the whole body of pond-reared tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon. Two experimental diets were supplemented with or without carotenoid mixture consisting of astaxanthin, canthaxanthin and other carotenoids contained in Spirulina. The carotenoid mixture was supplemented in the commercial diet normally used as a starter feed for tiger shrimp, repelleted and fed to tiger shrimp with an initial body weight of 31.7±1.3 g. Shrimp were stocked in four 1,000 m 2 concrete ponds with a density of 1 shrimp/m 2 and fed until the shrimp reached maturation stage (broodstock size). Variables observed were growth performances and pigmentation properties during the pre-maturation stage and total carotenoid content in several tissues of the female broodstock after being fed with the diets until maturation stage. After 16 weeks, shrimp fed with carotenoid-enriched diet (PC) diet produced significantly (P<0.05) higher biomass than the diet without the enrichment (PO). The color of raw shrimp fed with PC diet was darker with greenish-brown compared to shrimp fed PO diet which was greenish blue. The visual appearances of 3-min steamed shrimp produced the color of red-orange for shrimp fed carotenoid compared to orange-yellow for control PO. The total carotenoid content in the whole body of shrimp fed PC diet were significantly (P<0.05) enhanced compared to control PO diet which was 42.8 ±5.8 and 55.8± 5.1 µg/g for PO and PC diet, respectively. Supplemental carotenoid in the prematuration diet increased the biomass production from 23.1±1.9 kg to 30.2 ±0.1 kg and enhanced the color of the shrimp which was in line with carotenoid content in the whole body of pond-reared tiger shrimp.
