Influence of dietary protein and lipid levels on growth, body composition and utilization efficiencies of Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus L.
Growth, body composition and feed utilization were evaluated for Arctic charr fed a control diet and nine practical diets formulated to contain three protein levels (34, 44 or 54%) at each of three lipid levels (10, 15 or 20%). Fish were raised for 24 weeks at 12° C. Increasing either dietary protei...
