Nutrition is one of the main challenge of fish production because feed represents to 70% of total cost. Considering that the price of the feed rises as the protein content increases, the use of carbohydrates in the diet can result in a protein-sparing effect. The frugivorous eating habit of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) suggests that this species has physiological mechanisms for the use…
Despite the productive potential and demand in piapara (Leporinus obtusidens) both for consumption and for sport fishing, studies about piapara nutrition are very scarce and the nutritional values of feedstuffs are unknown. In the first experiment, the digestibility coefficients of dry matter, protein and energy of feedstuffs used in commercial diets will be determined. High-protein ingre…

Proteins are the main constituents of fish tissues, composing 65 to 75% of the body dry matter. In this way, they are of extreme importance for maximum performance of the animal. Furthermore, protein foods are the most costly ingredients in feed composition. Therefore, it is extremely important to balance fish feed, in order to guarantee a food with adequate levels of protein, improving p…

The study of new ingredients for use in diets for fish, such as algae, is a matter of great importance. Although the productive responses received great attention, it is fundamental to know the physiological and metabolic effects of these ingredients to evaluate the potential of these foods. The overall objective of the project is to evaluate the use of microalgae as an alternative and po…
The proper utilization of dietary carbohydrates and the protein sparing effect result in decreased production costs and reduced nitrogen excretion. Therefore, studies are being conducted to analyze this possible sparing effect of dietary protein. Accordingly, the carbohydrate diet enables the dietary protein for maximum growth. The pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) represents an interesting …
