Effect of dietary lipid level and replacement of fish oil by soybean oil in compound feeds for the shortfin corvina (Cynoscion parvipinnis)

This study evaluated the effect of various dietary lipid levels for the shortfin corvina Cynoscion parvipinnis when provided as fish oil (FO), and the degree to which FO may be replaced by soybean oil (SO) without significantly affecting its biological performance or the nutritional value of the fillet for the consumers. Three levels of dietary lipid, 8, 12, and 16%, and three levels of inclusion of FO, 100% FO, 75% FO–25% SO, and 50% FO–50% SO,...
