Abstract

Young yellowtail were fed for 30 days on fish meal diets high in protein, lipid and carbohydrate, and a control diet containing both lipid and carbohydrate. The growth, feed conversion and body composition were determined. The growth and feed efficiency were high in the control group, medium in the high protein group and the high carbohydrate group, and low in the high lipid group. The control group showed the highest retention of protein and energy. Also in the contrl group, a protein required for 100g weight gain could be spared by about 28% by dietary addition of both lipid and carbohydrate. There were no marked differences in the body composition between groups, though slight differences were found in the content of fat and glycogen in the liver. These results indicate the importance of addition of a proper amount of carbohydrate as well as lipid to the diets of carnivorous fish such as yellowtail.
