Abstract

A 51-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the dietary utilization of soy bean meal (SBM), corn gluten meal (CGM) and meat bone meal (MBM) as a partial substitute for brown fish meal (BFM) in single moist pellet (SMP) for young tiger puffer, Takifugu rubripes. Fish with a mean body weight of 48.2 g were fed on the diets until satiation. Rearing water temperature during the feeding trial was 21.2-26.4 °C.<BR>No remarkable differences were detected in weight gain, growth performances and, blood characteristics between the fish fed on SMP including 31.4 % of SBM and MBM. While, the fish fed on SMP including 31.4 % of CGM showed slightly poorer performances and characteristics than fish fed on other diets.<BR>These results suggest that tiger puffer, as yellowtail and red sea bream, are able to utilize efficiently SBM and MBM in diet, and that the lower EAA index of the SMP including CGM result in poorer growth performances.
