Fish meal replacement by soybean meal in diets for Tiger puffer, Takifugu rubripes

This study investigated the effect of partial replacement of dietary fish meal (FM) by defatted soybean meal (SBM) on growth performance of the juvenile tiger puffer, Takifugu rubripes. Triplicate groups of juvenile tiger puffer (initial weight of 20.1 g) were fed one of five experimental diets which were formulated to replace FM protein by SBM at 0%, 15%, 30%, 45%, or 60% (designated as SBM0, SBM15, SBM30, SBM45, or SBM60, respectively)....
