“…Furthermore, our results are in agreement with that obtained by Dernekbasi et al, (2010) who evaluated the use of Spirulina in guppy diet and they found that increasing level of Spirulina in diet provided better growth comparing to the other commercial feeds. Nandeesha et al (1998) reported that body weight gain of Nile tilapia (O. niloticus) increased linearly with increasing the level of algae in fish diet.…”

The present study was designed to evaluate the use of Spirulina, Arthrospir platensis as a protein source for hybrid red tilapia fries (Oreochromis niloticus x Oreochromis mossambicus) with average weights of 206±11 mg. Spirulina was incorporated into diets at 0, 50, 75, and 100% of the fishmeal-based diet. The test diets were fed to the fish at 12% body weight three times a day for consecutive 65 days at 24±2°C. The final weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio (FCR) and survival rate of fish were evaluated. The present study suggests that up to 75% of Spirulina can be substituted for fishmeal in a fishmeal-based diet for hybrid red tilapia with increased feed conversion ratio and protein productive value in carcass proximate composition. Also higher immunity can be observed than other treatments, where white blood cells were 4.08 x10 3 mm. In conclusion, the results of this study indicate the possibility of using Arthrospira platensis as commercial nutrient source for large scale culture of fish in general and tilapia in particular.

A feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary carotenoids sources on growth and skin color of red-and white-colored fancy carp Cyprinus carpio var. koi. Nine experimental diets (designated as Con, CP, PA, SP, OP, MB, TO, BE and PO) were formulated to contain Carophyll Pink, red paprika, Spirulina, Opuntia, mandarin bark, tomato, beet and Porphyra, respectively. Each experimental diet was fed to two replicate groups of fish (22.9 g/ fish) to visual satiation three times a day for 8 weeks. Weight gain and feed efficiency of fish fed the diets containing Spirulina or Opuntia were higher than those of fish fed the control diet (P<0.05). The values of a * , L * and b * of fish skin were significantly changed by dietary carotenoids sources (P<0.05). The a * values of fish fed the diets containing Carophyll Pink, red paprika and Spirulina were higher than those of fish fed other diets (P<0.05). The skin total carotenoids of fish fed the diets containing Spirulina and Opuntia were higher than those of others (P>0.05). Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that dietary inclusion of red paprika and Spirulina pacifica could increase the skin redness of red-and white-colored fancy carp.

Abstract:An experiment on slaughter characteristics of bighead carp (Hypophthalmichtys nobilis Rich.) reared in polyculture of the same age, based on natural feeding in the ponds, was carried out at the Institute of Fisheries and Aquaculture -Plovdiv, Bulgaria. Some of the ponds (First Group) were not fertilized and others (Second Group) were supplemented with manure at the rates corresponding to the standards of organic production. The structure of polyculture was one and the same in all the ponds: K 1 -one-year old common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) -500 pcs.ha -1 (half being scale carp and the other half -mirror carp); Tp 1 -oneyear old bighead carp (Hypophthalmichtys nobilis Rich.) -300 pcs.ha -1 ; А 1 -one-year old grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella Val.) -100 pcs.ha -1 . The bighead carp reached a live weight of 0.766 kg under the experimental conditions, the fishes in the ponds fertilized with manure being about 13.6% heavier compared to fishes in the ponds of the other group. It was established that the slaughter yield and the relative share of the fillet in bighead carp were in average 54.3% and 35.4%, respectively, and, pond fertilization and the amount of phytoplankton did not have a statistically significant effect on fish development. The pond had a significant effect exerted through its area and by overgrowing with macrophytes. Infestation increase by up to 30% had a positive effect on the weight of the cleaned carcass, the fillet and the slaughter output.
