Abstract
Eggs and tissue of Nile perch juveniles were analysed in order to derive the essential amino acid dietary requirements for Nile perch larvae and juveniles, using the A/E ratio. Results revealed the presence of both essential and non-essential amino acids in Nile perch. A significant difference (p < 0.05) between the amino acids (AA) composition in the eggs and tissue and amongst the four class sizes of juveniles was observed. Estimates of the amino acid dietary requirements revealed that Nile perch has high arginine, leucine, threonine, valine and isoleucine dietary requirements. Key words: Nile perch, amino acids, dietary requirements, larvae, juveniles.
