GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF NILE TILAPIA (OREOCHROMIS NILOTICUS ) AS AFFECTED WITH DIETARY INCORPORATION OF FERMENTED FISH SILAGE OR BOILED FULL FAT SOYBEANS AS PROTEIN REPLACERS
Two experiments were performed in order to evaluate two feed stuffs, namely fermented fish silage (FFS) and boiled full-fat soybeans (BFS) as alternative protein sources for fish meal (FM) or fish meal replacers in Nile tilapia feeds. Both FFS and BFS performed well up to 50% substitution of FM without a significant loss in performance reared fish. These results also indicated that FFS is a promising feed ingredients for substituting fish meal at 25-50% dietary protein in Nile tilapia diets.When different levels of boiled full-fat soybeans (BFS) were tested in the next experiment, similar results were obtained. Among this tested levels, substitution of fish meal with 25% dietary BFS was possible without any significant reduction in performance parameters The utilization of FFS or BFS as the only dietary protein source (100%) significantly reduced growth performance of the tested fish.
