“…Similarly, the rate of protein leaching throughout a 24 h immersion period resulted in a maximum loss of 1.7 ± 0.6% of protein in control groups. This study concurred with that of Aaqillah-Amr et al (2022) [ 43 ], who found that the percentage of water absorbed by the feed increased with immersion time and nutrient content. Furthermore, increased lipid inclusion causes the rapid declination of water stability and nutrient loss due to leaching.…”

“…This would imply that nutrient retention in all experimental feeds was minimal during the first 6 h of immersion, which ensured optimal timing because mud crabs ingested the feeds during the first hour of immersion. Aaqillah-Amr et al (2022) [ 43 ] investigated the nutrient leaching of semi-moist feed and found a greater percentage of dry matter nutrient losses, 87.54–88.81%, from semi-moist fish feed at 360 min of water immersion. Semi-moist feed is also more water-stable and has less nutrient leaching than other designed fish feeds.…”

“…This nutritional quality is comparable to that found in the study of Lanter et al [ 46 ], who reported the proximate composition for gel feed on a wet basis as protein percentage 2–25%, carbohydrate percentage 3–40%, crude fat percentage 0–10%, fibre percentage 2%, and moisture content 25–90%. Similarly, Aaqillah-Amr et al (2022) [ 43 ] reported the proximate composition of different lipid levels of semi-moist feed on a dry weight basis. The crude protein content of different treatments ranged from 42.04 to 42.89%, the crude lipid content ranged from 6.67 to 12.73%, and the ash content ranged from 8.09 to 8.56%.…”

To resurrect and establish a low-impact aquaculture practice, gel-based feed applications hold promise. Gel feed is viscoelastic, nutrient-dense, hard, flexible, and appealing, and can be moulded into appealing shapes to ensure rapid acceptance by fish. The purpose of this research is to create a suitable gel feed using various gelling agents and to evaluate its properties and acceptance by a model fish, Pethia conchonius (rosy barb). Three gelling agents, viz. starch, calcium lactate and pectin, were included at 2%, 5%, and 8% in a fish-muscle-based diet. The physical properties of gel feed were standardized using texture profile analysis, sinking velocity, water and gel stability, water holding capacity, proximate composition, and colour. The lowest levels of nutrient leaching protein (0.57 ± 0.15%) and lipid (14.3 ± 14.30%) were observed up to 24 h in the underwater column. The highest score for overall physical and acceptance characteristics was noted for the 5% calcium lactate-based gel feed. Furthermore, a 20-day acceptance feeding experiment was conducted using 5% calcium lactate to examine its suitability as fish feed. The results indicate a better acceptability (3.55 ± 0.19%) and water stability (−2.5 ± 2.5%) of the gel feed compared to the control, with an improvement in nutrient losses. Overall, the study provides an insight into the application of gel-based diets for ornamental fish rearing, besides ensuring an efficient nutrient uptake and minimal leaching to establish a clean aquatic environment.

“…In mangrove crab farming, shrimp diet and trash fish are commonly used. Therefore, developing an appropriate mangrove crab feed formulation is a priority area of research (Say and Ikhwanuddin, 1999;Zhao et al, 2016;Dayal et al, 2019;Aaqillah-Amr et al, 2022). A farmer can further enhance the quality of the feed by understanding the composition and reformulating the feed if the nutrients are not adequate to sustain the crabs.…”

Mangrove crab Scylla serrata is associated with mangroves throughout the Indian and Pacific oceans. This species is crucial to aquaculture and fishing. As wild stocks decline and demand rises, mangrove crab aquaculture has become increasingly popular. However, feed development research and its quality are still meager in the industry. This study examined the interactive effects of different levels of crab shellmeal (CSM) to fishmeal (FM) replacement on proximate composition, feed utilization, carcass composition, growth, and survival performance of mangrove crab S. serrata. Four formulated diets were prepared, and one for chopped trash fish (TF) supplement: 30% FM and 0% CSM (Diet 1) as a negative control, 20% FM and 10% CSM (Diet 2), 10% FM and 20% CSM (Diet 3), 0% FM and 30% CSM (Diet 4), and TF as a positive control (Diet 5). Experiments were conducted in each group for 30 days with ten replicates. Results revealed that formulated diets using different levels of CSM and FM did not significantly affect mangrove crabs' growth and survival rates as well as feed utilization. However, the proximate composition of Diet 4 was significantly higher among other experimental diets. Moreover, the crab's whole body composition (ash, moisture, carbohydrates, crude protein, crude fat, and calories) with different levels of CSM and FM was significantly improved. Hence, it is possible to enhance the carcass composition and proximate composition by supplementing CSM; however, it has no effect on feed utilization, as well as the growth and survival rates of mangrove crab S. serrata.
