Abstract:
A feeding experiment was carried out to develop a practical diet with low fishmeal for juvenile golden pompano (Trachinotus ovatus) by substituting fishmeal protein with soybean products mixture. Six isocaloric (17.6 KJ g−1) diets were designed by replacing 0 (FM100), 5 (FM95), 10 (FM90), 15 (FM85), 20 (FM80), and 25% (FM75) of the fishmeal with soybean products mixture (SPM) (soybean meal and soybean protein concentrate). The experiment diets were supplemented with 1.5%, 3%, 4.5%, 6% and 7.5% squid paste as attractants or palatability enhancer. The experimental fish (6.9 g) were cultured in sea cages (1.0 m × 1.0 m × 1.5 m) with 25 fish in each cage. Fish were fed the corresponding experimental diets to satiation twice daily for 8 weeks. At the end of the feeding experiment, no differences were found in the final weight and weight gain (WG) of fish fed FM100, FM85, FM80, and FM75 diets (P 〉 0.05). The WG was significantly (P 〈 0.05) better in the fish-fed FM95 diet compared to FM100 and FM75 diets. FCR in diet FM95 and FM90 was significantly (P 〈 0.05) than that of FM80 and FM75, but these values were not significantly different from those in other treatments. Although the condition factor value in diets FM90, FM85, and FM80 was significantly (P 〈 0.05) higher than that of FM100, these values were not significantly different from the rest of the other groups. There was no statistical difference in SGR, FR, VSI, and survival rates among different dietary treatments. The plasma AST activity was significantly lower in fish fed FM90 diet compared to fish fed with control, FM85, FM80, and FM75 (P 〈 0.05). There was no significant difference in plasma AST among all dietary treatments except FM95 and FM90. In contrast, the plasma AKP activity showed the opposite trend. Compared with the control, the fish-fed FM80 and FM75 diets had significantly decreased plasma cholesterol, triglyceride total protein, albumin, and globulin level (P 〈 0.05) while significantly increasing plasma COR levels (P 〈 0.05). There was no significant difference in ALT, Urea and glucose values among all treatments. No statistical difference was observed among the FM100, FM80, and FM75 treatments for those of plasma LYZ activity, C3, and C4 levels. The hepatic T-AOC and SOD activities were significantly increased in fish fed the FM90 diet (P 〈 0.05) compared to those in fish fed with FM100 diet. According to the current experiment, it can be concluded that SPM supplemented with SP could partially substitute fishmeal (25%) for juvenile golden pompano without any adverse symptoms.
