Effects of Phase-Feeding Decreasing Levels of Dietary Protein on Growth and Diet Utilization
ABSTRACT. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate phase-feed-ing strategies on growth and nutrient retention of red drum, Sciaenops ocellatus. The first experiment was conducted over a 17-week period, uti-lizing sub-adult (initial mean weight, 70.8 g/fish) red drum. Treatments included three fixe...
