MORENO, J. M; MUNOZ, A. P and WILLS, G. A. EFFECT OF THE INCLUSION OF DIFFERENT LIPID SOURCES ON GROWTH PERFORMANCE AND PROXIMATE COMPOSITION OF NILE TILAPIA FILLET -Oreochromis niloticus- REARED IN FLOATING CAGES. Rev. Med. Vet. Zoot. [online]. 2013, vol.60, n.2, pp.100-111. ISSN 0120-2952.
In order to evaluate the effect of inclusion of different lipid sources on growth performance and proximate composition of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus fillet, four diets were manufactured with: fish oil (FO), palm oil (PO), chia seeds (CS) or flaxseeds (FS). The experiment was conducted for 45 days at Betania reservoir (Huila), in 20 floating completely randomized experimental design. In Addition, an economical partial budget analysis was run to establish the partial gross marginal income (PGMI) obtained with the different diets. Significant differences (P < 0,05) were observed in feed conversion ratio (FCR) between FO (1,19) and FS (1,54) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) among FO (3,64) and the other diets. The CS diet generated the lower IGMP followed by FS, PO and FO. In fillet proximal composition there were significant differences (P < 0,05) only in crude protein content, between FO (18,23%) compared with FS (19,17%). In conclusion it is possible to use FO, PO, CS or FS as lipids sources in the diet without affecting survival, final biomass, daily live weight gain, apparent food intake, specific growth rate and viscerosomatic index. cages, each one with 504 fish with mean live weight of 557 ± 16,87 g, distributed in a completely randomized experimental design.
