Abstract

An experiment was conducted to delineate the effect of varying level of dietary protein with balanced level of limiting amino acids such as lysine and methionine on growth, feed utilization, body indices and digestive enzymology of snubnose pompano, Trachinotus blochii reared in low saline water. There were four experimental diets formulated with 350 (CP350), 400 (CP400), 450 (CP450) and 500 g/kg (CP500) crude protein and each with 100 g/kg crude fat and were assigned to four treatments, CP350, CP400, CP450 and CP500 respectively. Totally eighty four fingerlings with the body weight in the range of 16
