摘要

Abstract

We investigated the growth and body composition of Nile tilapia under five different feeding regimes. A control group was fed to satiation twice daily for 185 days; four treatment groups were fed at intervals of 2

4 or 7 days (dietary ‘restricted’ period

days 0–80) and then fed to satiation (‘refeeding’ period

days 80–185). Compensatory growth in weight and length of the feed-restricted groups was observed during the refeeding period. However

the growth of none of the restricted groups caught up with that of the control group over the experimental period. Feed intake upon refeeding increased with the duration of deprivation. There were no significant differences in feed efficiency between the restricted and control groups during the refeeding stage

suggesting that hyperphagia was the mechanism responsible for the increased growth rates during this period. Tilapia preferentially used n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and nonessential amino acids during the restricted-feeding period. Higher production was achieved by higher feed consumption. We suggest that if attainment of market size in minimum time is required

fish should be consistently fed to satiation

while taking care to avoid the possible negative consequences of overfeeding.
