SOME NUTRITIONAL STUDIES ON FISH

ADEL EZET TOULAN;

Abstract


The present study was carried out in 2 experiments to determine the optimum P:E ratio required to produce maximum growth rate and protein utilization in 0. niloticus. Experiments were carried out in Fish Research Lab., Animal Production Department, Faculty of Agriculture Kafr El-Sheikh, Tanta University during the period from 1997 to 1999.

The first experiment was conducted to determine the optimum P:E ratio required to produce maximum growth rate in 0. niloticus. To search this purpose four protein levels, namely 28, 33, 38 and 43%, were conbined with three fat levels (3, 7 and II%). The experimental diets were fed to 0. niloticus with initial weight of about 1.5 g for I 04-days.

The second experiment was based on the obtained results of the first experiment, where another three fat levels (5, 8 and II%) within three dietary protein (24,30 and 36%) were used. The aim of this experiment was to determine the minimum protein level which produce maximum growth in 0. niloticus. The experimental diets were fed to fish with initial weight of about 90 g for 90 days.
