Muscle Of Red Sea Bream Research Articles

Effect of dietary wakame Undaria penatifida and Ascophyllum nodosum supplements on growth, feed efficiency, and proximate compositions of liver and muscle of red sea bream.

In order to investigate Che nutritional value of seaweed as a dietary supplement, red sea bream Chrysophrys major were fed on the control diet without seaweed and on the diets supplemented with Wakame or Ascophyllum at a level of 5% or 10% to the control diet for 10 weeks. The growth and feed efficiency were best in the 5% Wakame diet group, followed by the 5% Ascophyl-lum, the 10% Wakame, the control, and the 10% Ascophyllum diet group. Besides this, the muscle lipid content was slightly higher in the 5% Wakame, the 5% Ascophyllum and the 10% Wakame diet groups, compared with the control and the 10% Ascophyllum diet groups.
