Abstract
Cobia may require both eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids to meet dietary n − 3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) demand. Growth performance is reduced when LC-PUFA-rich fish oil is replaced with soybean oil, a LC-PUFA deficient lipid, in cobia diets, but individual requirements for EPA and DHA have not been quantitatively determined. We assessed the growth performance and tissue fatty acid composition of...
