Effects of dietary supplementation with the marine microalgae Aurantiochytrium sp. on silver pompano
Evaluating Aurantiochytrium sp. diet supplementation on silver pompano shows enhanced fish growth, physiological and biochemical indexes.
Effect of feeding during off-flavor depuration on geosmin excretion by Nile tilapia
Evaluating off-flavor depuration time in Nile tilapia shows it is strongly reduced when farmers adopt a practice of feeding the fish.
Underutilized marine organisms as potential aquaculture feed ingredients
Evaluating potential of underutilized marine organisms as candidates for aquafeed ingredients, emphasizing unfed low-trophic-level species.
Effect of alternate‐day feeding on growth and feed conversion in Atlantic cod
Alternate‐day feeding in Atlantic cod juveniles in Norway resulted in higher weight gain, improved growth and lower feed conversion ratio.
