A total of 1080 M. rosenbergii PL, average weight of 6.10 ± 0.4 mg, were equally distributed over 18 fiberglass tanks, (1 m^3 each, and triplicate per treatment). Six experimental isocaloric (14 MJ/kg/digestible energy) and isonitrogenous (35% crude protein) diets were lbrmulated. Control diet (D1, 100% FM) was formulated with FM as the main protein source (0% Artemia). Diets D2-D6 were substituted with five dietary protein levels of frozen Artemia (20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%), respectively. Results showed that growth performance of M. rosenbergii PL fed different Artemia based diets was either equal or superior to prawn fed control FM diet. In addition, increasing dietary frozen Artemia replacement level from 20% up to 100% led to a significant (P 〈 0.05) increase in survival, growth and feed utilization, which indicate that the essential nutrient requirements needed for M. rosenbergii PL was covering with improving feed satiation of PLs. It could be concluded that frozen Artemia biomass instead of fishmeal in M. rosenbergii PL diets can improve survival rate, growth performance, feed utilization, contributing to reducing the use of FM in practical diets and the nursery phase could be shorter and more profitable.展开更多

Five diets of an isonitrogenous of 35 :e 1% crude protein and isocaloric of digestible energy of 3,200 ±100 kcal/kg were formulated by using silkworm pupae, 0%, 8.6%, 17.2%, 25.8% and 34.7% by weight, replaced for fish meal. Giant freshwater prawn of 19 ± 2.0 g were stocked at 5 ind./m3 in concrete tank of 2.25 ton for three months. The protein digestibility by pepsin enzyme was evaluated in fish meal, silkworm pupae, soybean meal and shrimp meal. The digestibility was significantly difference (P 〈 0.05). The protein digestibility of fishmeal and soybean meal was higher than silkworm pupae and shrimp meal. The productive performance of prawn in terms of growth rate and feed utilization were not significantly different (P 〉 0.05). Therefore, silkworm pupae can be replaced for fishmeal in giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii de Man) without any adverse effects on productive performance.展开更多
