Effects of dietary soybean oil concentration on growth, nutrient utilization and muscle fatty acid composition of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata L.)

TLDR
Feed intake, protein efficiency ratio, body composition and economic profitability were not influenced by the amount of soybean oil in the diets, but muscle fatty acid composition differed with diets.
Abstract
A 309 days feeding experiment was carried out on gilthead sea bream fingerlings (initial weight 14.7±4.4 g) to evaluate effects of substitution of fish oil with soybean oil in diets on growth and sensory characteristics and muscle fatty acid composition. Duplicate groups of fish were hand fed with four isoenergetic and isonitrogenous diets (46% protein, 14% lipid and 22 MJ kg⁻¹) in which 0%, 24%, 48% or 72% of the fish oil was replaced by soybean oil. Fish fed diet 72% reached a lower final weight (324 g) than fish fed diets 0%, 24% and 48% (349, 343 and 338 g respectively). Feed intake, protein efficiency ratio, body composition and economic profitability were not influenced by the amount of soybean oil in the diets, but muscle fatty acid composition differed with diets. Panellists observed significant sensory differences between fish fed diet 0% and diet 72%. These results verified the possibility of feeding sea bream until they reached commercial weight with a 48% dietary substitution of fish oil for soybean oil.

Replacing fishmeal and fish oil in industrial aquafeeds for carnivorous fish

TL;DR: There is potential for significant sparing of FM and FO in carnivorous fish diets during the grow-out phase without affecting fish performance and animal health, and more research is required to evaluate the effects of simultaneous replacement of FMand FO in the diet.

Effects of replacement of dietary fish oil by soybean oil on growth performance and liver biochemical composition in juvenile black seabream, Acanthopagrus schlegeli

TL;DR: The results indicated that the inclusion of soybean oil increased the hepatic α-tocopherol content and reduced lipid peroxidation in fish, however, complete substitution of fish oil with soybeanOil reduced growth efficiency.

Meat and bone meal as partial replacement for fish meal in diets for gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) juveniles: Growth, feed efficiency, amino acid utilization, and economic efficiency

TL;DR: Overall, up to 50% of FM protein can be replaced by MBM protein in diets for gilthead seabream juveniles, without compromising growth performance, feed utilization, and nutrient retention.

Dietary lipid sources for seabream and seabass: growth performance, tissue composition and flesh quality

TL;DR: The results show that, providing a minimum content of essential fatty acids in the diet, it is possible to replace up to 60% of the fish oil by SO, LO and RO or a mixture of them in diets for seabream and seabass, without compromising fish growth.

Alterations in fillet fatty acid profile and flesh quality in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) fed vegetable oils for a long term period. Recovery of fatty acid profiles by fish oil feeding

TL;DR: Results showed that substitution by vegetable oils of up to 60% fish oil in diets for gilthead seabream does not affect growth and feed utilization even after a long feeding period, however, 80% substitution of fish oil significantly reduced growth.
