Effects of starvation and re-feeding on growth performance and blood plasma of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Authors

Abstract:

The mechanism of compensatory growth in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was studied in a completely randomized design with four experimental treatments and a control group (no food deprivation) with three replicates. Animals in treatments 1 to 4 were fed with rates of 0, 25, 50 and 75% saturation, respectively for two weeks. Then, the treatments were fed twice a day until saturation level for more three weeks. The results of growth indexes, chemical body composition and blood factors showed that rainbow trout could tolerate compensatory growth and feeding until 25% of saturation level.

Effects of zeolite on growth and hematology of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) kept at low temperatures

It is known that zeolite, tested in animal feeds in recent years, has a positive effect on fish growth and many physiological parameters. For this purpose, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was fed with feeds containing zeolite at different rates (1%, 3%, and 5%) for three months in the present study. Fish growth parameters (live weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion rate, condit...
