Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the energy requirement of juvenile greater amberjack Seriola dumerili, weighing 95.0 g on average, to establish the adequate feeding levels at 23.8-29.4°C of water temperatures. The feeding experiment was conducted in net cages for four weeks, employing commercial extruded dry pellets. Fish were fed to satiation or at levels between 60 and 80% of the satiation level once a day. The growth was highest for the satiation group and decreased proportionally to the feeding levels. The optimum feeding rate, estimated on the basis of the relationship between the weight gain and feeding rate, was 2.46% body weight per day and 98.4 kcal/kg body weight/day.
