Fish meal replacement by plant meals in extruded feeds for Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.

TL;DR: The weight gain and feed efficiency ratio data showed that soybean meal and pea protein concentrate had the best potential for replacing at least 33% of the fish meal protein in extruded salmon feeds and that lupin protein concentrate was less well utilised at the higher inclusion level.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of feeding hierarchy on individual variability in daily feeding of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum)

TL;DR: It is suggested that radiography can be used to assess social relationships within groups of Fish allowing the assessment of feeding hierarchies in larger groups of fish than would be possible by observational techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replacement of fish oil with sunflower oil in feeds for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.): effect on growth performance, tissue fatty acid composition and disease resistance.

TL;DR: There was no significant effect on growth suggesting that SFO is a suitable alternative to FO in diets for Atlantic salmon parr when fish meal is also included, and significant differences were detected in cumulative mortality of Atlantic salmon challenged with Vibrio anguillarum at the trials conclusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

n-3 Oil sources for use in aquaculture--alternatives to the unsustainable harvest of wild fish.

TL;DR: The present review examines renewable sources of oils with n-3 long-chain ( ≥ C20) PUFA (n-3 LC-PUFA) as alternatives to oil from wild-caught fish in aquafeeds and focuses on Atlantic salmon, because it is the main intensively cultured finfish species and it both uses and stores large amounts of oil, in particular n- 3 LC- PUFA, in the flesh.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replacement of fish oil with thraustochytrid Schizochytrium sp. L oil in Atlantic salmon parr (Salmo salar L) diets.

TL;DR: Thraustochytrid oil can be used to replace fish oil in Atlantic salmon diets without detriment to the growth of parr, and is a candidate for use in oil blends for salmon diets.
