Evaluation of Different Commercial Feeds for Culture of Juvenile Sobaity (Sparidentex Hasta Valenciennes) in Kuwait

Abstract: A 6-month long growth trial was conducted to evaluate three commercial feeds: Skretting (Turkey), Biomar (Greece), and Arasco (Saudi Arabia) in juvenile sobaity, Sparidentex hasta. For confidentiality, these feeds were randomly given code names diets 1, 2 and 3 and trash fish was used as diet 4 (control). Protein in commercial diets ranged between 47.17 and 48.80% while trash fish had 57.40% protein (% dry basis). Sobaity juveniles (51.39±0.63 g) were stocked at the rate of 50fish/tank, each treatment with thr… Show more

“…Regarding growth performance, although the trial was conducted under suboptimal rearing temperatures, the growth performance in SGR values of the control group was within the range of normal values for this species reported by Hossain et al . (). Feeding strategy significantly affected fish body mass at the end of the trial ( P < 0.05).…”

“…As the trial was conducted in autumn in an open‐flow system, water temperature values were lower than those reported for maximizing growth (23.0–28 °C) in this species (Hossain et al . ). Average values for dissolved oxygen and pH were 7.3 ± 1.3 mg L −1 and 7.6 ± 0.2, respectively, over the course of the experiment.…”
