“…In this context, Rana, Salam, Hashem, and Islam [ 40 ] elucidated that mono-sex tilapia fed diets with BSFLM replaced with 50% of FM displayed similar growth performance to the control group. Similarly, Ushakova, Ponomarev, Bakaneva, Fedorovykh, Levina, Kotel’nikov, Kotel’nikova, Bastrakov, Kozlova, and Pavlov [ 41 ] reported that feeding Mozambique tilapia with dried flour of BSFLM pre-pupae in a dose of 0.5 g kg −1 of feed for 30 days resulted in a significant increase of average daily gain with no significant differences in the survival rate. Additionally, Dietz and Liebert [ 42 ] reported that the inclusion of 50% BSFLM as a replacer for soy protein-concentrate did not compromise the growth performance and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of Nile tilapia.…”

“…Likewise, Abdel–Tawwab, Khalil, Metwally, Shakweer, Khallaf and Abdel–Latif [ 7 ], found that no significant changes were observed in counts of WBCs, lymphocytes, monocytes, and neutrophils in BSFLM-fed fish as compared to the FM-fed fish. Conversely, Ushakova, Ponomarev, Bakaneva, Fedorovykh, Levina, Kotel’nikov, Kotel’nikova, Bastrakov, Kozlova, and Pavlov [ 41 ] observed increased hemoglobin in Mozambique tilapia ( O. mossambicus ) fed on a diet supplemented with dried black soldier flypre-pupae flour for one month.…”

Fish meal (FM) is no longer a sustainable source for the increasing aquaculture industry. Animal proteins from insects may be used as a FM alternative source as long as they do not create adverse effects in fish. Black soldier fly larvae meal (BSFLM) was tested in a 12-week experiment on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Four hundred and twenty (14.77 ± 2.09 g) fish were divided into seven groups and were fed seven diets: control (0% BSFLM-100% FM), and FM replaced by BSFLM at rates of 10%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%. Growth indexes, feed utilization efficiency indices, feed intake, and survival rate were not significantly different (p > 0.05) between FM and BSFLM fed fish. Values of red blood cell, white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume and hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, red blood cell distribution width, and platelet values were not affected by BSFLM. Skin, mucus lysozyme, and peroxidase activities were improved in BSFLM fed fish. BSFLM can be used as a substitution for FM in the Nile tilapia (O. niloticus) diet at up to a 100% rate with no adverse effects.

“…Human activity has played a dominant role in the resettlement of this species throughout the world. The use of Hermetia illucens by humans is promising in the future, since its larvae can be breeding objects for organic fertiliser production, waste disinfection, use as feed for domestic and farm animals (Newton et al, 1977;Sheppard, 1992;Sheppard et al, 1994;Józefiak et al, 2016;Ushakova et al, 2018).
