EFFECT OF DIETARY ENERGY LEVEL ON GROWTH AND SURVIVAL OF FISH LARVAE
RAGAA ABDALLAH AHMED ABDALLAH;
Abstract
This study was carried out in the fish laboratory research, Faculty of Agriculture (Saba Basha), Alexandria University, Alexandria Egypt. The present study was conducted to determine protein and energy requirements of maintenance and maximum growth of striped mullet larvae (mugi/ cephalus) using three directions.
1- feeding rates as a percent of body weight.
2- dietary energy level.
3- interaction between varying energy levels and sources in the
diet
In three experiments in glass aquaria supplemented with continuos aeration. Water temperature and dissolved oxygen were checked daily, fish were fed twice daily at 9:00 and 13:30h on diet containing both animal and plant protein source.
At the start of each experiment larvae caught from the willed (El max larval collection center) and weighted, and then weekly all the fish were taken from aquaria and weighted to detennine growth performance and feed utilization. Fish samples were taken at the end of each experiment randomly and frozen for body composition analysis.
T. The first direction
• Detennine protein and energy maintenance and maximum growth requirements of striped mullet larvae using different feeding rates.
