Aquaculture diet development subprogram - Dietary requirements and optimal feeding practices for Barramundi (Lates Calcarifer)

Feed is by far the single largest cost component of barramundi farming and accounts for about 35% of on-farm operating costs. Reducing feed costs by better tailoring dietary specifications to the nutrient requirements of the fish, by providing these nutrients at least cost and by adopting feeding...

Aquaculture Diet Development Subprogram - Replacement of fishmeal in diets for barramundi - improving nutritive value of alternative feedstuffs using crystalline amino acids

Australia has an abundant supply of terrestrial animal and vegetable protein feeds which has the potential to at least partly if not fully replace the fishmeal presently used in compounded aquaculture diets. A major difference between marine and terrestrial protein sources is the marked difference...

Do changes in aeration efficiency of "airwick" diffusers explain recent high mortalities during transport of live fish in bulk bins?

To provide an alternative to the use of oxygen cylinders in live transport bins, Seafood Transportation Developments (STD) initiated development of an aeration unit which could be fitted to the live bins. The system provides oxygen to the live fish by air diffusion at a high flow rate through an air...
