Abstract
The larval growth potential of four African sharptooth catfish strains over a 56 day growth period was evaluated and found to differ significantly between strains. Strain strongly influenced body total lipid, but not body protein content. Body total lipid content was associated with growth rate. The body amino acid content was not strongly influenced by strain. Strain had an influence on total body lipid fatty acid composition, although no fixed trend was established. Although strain influenced the body mineral profile, no fixed trends were manifested.
