Two feeding trials were conducted to investigate the effects of several dietary additives on growth and feed utilization of juvenile flounder. In the first experiment, three replicate groups of juveniles (average weight 1.5 g) were fed diets with or without wasabi extract and chitosan for 7 weeks. Survival rate, weight gain, protein efficiency ratio, hepatosomatic index and condition factor were not affected by the different dietary additives (P>0.05). Feed efficiency of fish fed the wasabi extract diet was significantly higher than that of fish fed the control diet (P<0.05). Daily feed intake of fish fed the wasabi extract diet was significantly lower than that of fish fed the other diets (P<0.05). In the second experiment, three replicate groups of juveniles (average weight 1.4 g) were fed diets with or without Pophyra powder for 7 weeks. Survival rate and weight gain were not significantly affected by dietary Pophyra powder (P>0.05). Feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of fish fed the Pophyra diet were significantly lower than those of fish fed the control diet (P<0.05). The results of these experiments suggest that feed efficiency of juvenile flounder may be improved by dietary supplementation with wasabi extract.

This study was conducted to evaluate the use of tuna by-product meal (TBM) as a substitute for fishmeal in juvenile Korean rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli) diets. Five isonitrogenous (52% crude protein) and isocaloric (4.9 kcal/g) diets were prepared. Control diet (Con) was formulated to contain brown fishmeal, whereas 25, 50, 75, and 100% of fishmeal was substituted with the same percentage of TBM in the TBM25, TBM50, TBM75, and TBM100 diets, respectively. Three replicate groups of fish (initial weight, $29.5{\pm}0.6g$) were fed one of the five diets for 12 weeks. The mean weight gain of fish fed the Con and TBM25 diets was significantly higher than that of fish fed the TBM100 diet (P < 0.05), but it was not significantly different from the weight gain of fish fed the TBM50 and TBM75 diets. The feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratios of fish fed the Con diet were significantly higher than those of fish fed the TBM100 diet (P < 0.05), but were not significantly different from those fed the TBM25, TBM50, and TBM75 diets. The TBM25, TBM50, TBM75, and TBM100 diets had significantly (P < 0.05) lower incidence cost and higher profit index than the Con diet. These results suggest that the tuna by-product meal used in this study could replace up to 75% of fishmeal protein in the diet without reducing growth and feed utilization in juvenile Korean rockfish weighing 29-53 g. By considering feed cost, the TBM 75 diet is recommendable for Korean rockfish farming.

This study investigated the effect of soybean-curd residues as an ingredient of the formulated diet for juvenile flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Three replicates of juvenile fish (averaging weight $1.5\pm0.04\;g$) were fed one of four isonitrogenous $(50\%)$ diets containing $0\%,\;5\%,\;10\%\;and\;15\%$ soybean-curd residues for 7 weeks. Survival, hepatosomatic index and condition factor of the fish were not affected by dietary soybean-curd residues levels. Weight gain, feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of the fish fed the diet containing $5\%$ soybean-curd residues were not significantly different to those of the fish fed the control diet, however these values decreased in the fish fed the $10\%\;and\;15\%$ soybean-curd residues (P<0.05). Daily feed and protein intake increased with increasing dietary soybean-curd residues level. Crude protein and lipid contents in the whole body decreased with increasing dietary soybean-curd residues, but no significant differences were observed among control, $5\%\;and\;10\%$ soybean-curd residues diets (P>0.05). Plasma total protein concentration of fish was affected by dietary soybean-curd residues levels (P<0.05). It is concluded that the soybean-curd residues as a substitute for wheat flour can be included up to $5\%$ in the diet for juvenile flounder.

The toxic impact of parathion on bagrid catfish (Pseudobagrus fulvidraco) juvenile was examined 96 hr $LC_{50}$ value of parathion estimated as 1 90 mg/L. Chronically, bagrid catfish were exposed for 30 days to concentrations of parathion, i.e. 63, 95, 190 and $380\;{\mu}g/L$, representing 3.3, 5.0, 10.0 and $20.0{\%}$ of the 96 hr $LC_{50}$. Survival rate was significantly affected by the concentration over $63\;{\mu}g/L$ after 10 days. Growth rate, specific growth rate (SGR) and feed efficiency were reduced in time as concentration dependent manner. Growth rates of the exposed groups were significantly reduced as $28.06-60.63{\%}$ to the control fish, SGR was decresed as $1.50-4.72{\%}$ and feed efficiency was declined as $6.10-11.90{\%}$. It can be concluded that if p. lulvidraco is chronically exposed to parathion over $63\;{\mu}g/L$ concentration, the physiological damages might affect growth factors of the fish.

Age and growth of three-lined tonguefish (Cynoglossus abbreviatus) were studied using samples from the waters off Yosu, Korea, from June to December, 2001. Sagittal otoliths had relatively clear annuli. Each annulus was formed once a year in April. The peak of the gonadosomatic index occurred also in April. The oldest fish observed in this study was 5 years old for females and 4 years old for males. The relationship between the otolith radius (R) and total length (L) was as follows: L=14.921R-2.5318 for females and L=13.527R-0.5584 for males. The relationship between total length and body weight (W) was as follows: $W=0.0008L^{3.54}$ for females and $W=0.0029L^{3.14}$ for males. The growth in length of the fish was expressed by the von Bertalanffy's growth equation as: $$L_t=44.54(1-e^{-0.16(t+2.69)})\;for\;females\;and\;L_t=41.52(1-e^{-0.15(t+3.34)})\;for\;males$$.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of exposured $Cu^{2+}$ on growth and bioaccumulation of abalone Haliotis discus hannai. Abalone were exposed to various concentration of $Cu^{2+}$ (0, 5, 10, 20, $40{\mu}g/L$). Bioaccumulation of tissues, hepatopancreas, muscles and gills were measured. hepatopancreas and gills $Cu^{2+}$ concentration of abalone increases to extent during the 4 weeks accumulation time. But muscles showed no significant changes, with respect to control. These data indicate that abalone Haliotis discus hannai hepatopancreas and gills can be considered adequate target tissues for waterborne exposured of $Cu^{2+}$. Weight growth rate of abalone exposed to $Cu^{2+}$ was significantly decreased in 20 and $40{\mu}g/L$ groups compared to control. This study revealed that high $Cu^{2+}$ concentration (${\geq}20{\mu}g/{\ell}$) reduced growth of abalone. These data indicate that excessive waterborne $Cu^{2+}$ can affect the toxicity of xenbiotics to abalone through alterations in growth rate. Thus, environmental standard of $Cu^{2+}$ $20{\mu}g/L$, should be considered a potential source of variation in toxicological studies with abalone.

Background: Dietary protein requirements are dependent on a variety of factors and water temperature is one of the most important abiotic factors affecting protein requirement of fish. This study was, therefore, conducted to investigate effects of water temperature on dietary protein requirement of fry Heteropneustes fossilis which has high demand in most of the Asian markets. Methods: Quadruplicate groups of 30 fish per treatment (2.97 ± 0.65 cm; 5.11 ± 0.34 g) were fed seven isoenergetic diets (17.9 kJ g^-1 gross energy; 14.99 kJ g^-1 digestible energy) containing dietary protein levels ranging from 28 to 52% at two water temperatures (18 and 26 ℃). Experimental diets were fed to apparent satiation as semi-moist cakes thrice daily at 17:00, 12:00, and 17:30 h for 12 weeks. For precise information, various growth parameters, protein deposition, hematological parameters, metabolic enzymes, and stress response were analyzed, and effects of water temperature on dietary protein requirement was recommended on the basis of response from above parameters. Results: Groups held at 26 ℃ attained best growth, feed conversion, and protein deposition at 44% dietary protein indicating that temperature affected dietary protein requirement for optimum growth of H. fossilis fry and protein requirement seems to be satisfied with 44% dietary protein. Interestingly, interactive effects of both dietary protein levels and temperature were not found (P > 0.05). Fish reared at 18 ℃ had comparatively higher values for aspartate and alanine transferases than those reared at 26 ℃ water temperature which exhibited normal physiological value for these enzymes indicating that body metabolism was normal at this temperature. Hematological parameters also followed same pattern. Furthermore, fish reared at 26 ℃ water temperature exhibited more resistant to thermal stress (P < 0.05). The 95% maximum plateau of protein deposition data using second-degree polynomial regression analyses exhibited dietary protein requirement of fry H. fossilis between 40.8 and 41.8% of diet at 26 ℃ water temperature. The recommended range of dietary protein level and protein/digestible energy ratio for fry H. fossilis is 40.8-41.8% and 27.21-27.88 mg protein kJ^-1 digestible energy, respectively. Conclusions: Information developed is of high significance for optimizing growth potential by making better utilization of nutrient at 26 ℃ and, to develop effective management strategies for mass culture of this highly preferred fish species.

This feeding experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary inclusion of various additives on growth performance, hematological parameters, fatty acid composition, gene expression and histopathological changes in juvenile olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Eleven isonitrogenous (49% crude protein) and isolipidic (10% crude lipid) experimental diets were formulated: no additives (Con); 5% kelp meal (Ke); 10% krill meal (Kr); 1% garlic powder (Ga); 1% citrus meal (Ci); 3% onion powder (On); 1% ginger powder (Gi); 1% mugwort powder (Mu); 1% licorice powder (Li); 1% wasabi powder (Wa); and a mixture (Mix) of these additives. Three replicate groups of juvenile flounder (average weight of 8.5 g) were fed one of the experimental diets to visual satiety twice a day for 15 weeks. The dietary inclusion of additives did not affect survival, weight gain, specific growth rate feed efficiency, daily feed intake, daily protein intake, protein efficiency ratio, hepatosomatic index and visceralsomatic index of the fish. Plasma triglyceride levels were significantly lower in fish fed the Ke, Ga, On, Gi, Mu, Li, and Mix diets than in fish fed the control diet. Plasma glucose, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase and total cholesterol did not differ among dietary treatments. No significant difference was observed in fatty acid composition and lipid content of the dorsal muscle in fish fed the experimental diets. Myosin gene expression did not differ significantly among treatments after 5 weeks but was significantly lower in fish fed the Kr, Ci, Li, and Mix diets than in control group after 15 weeks. Histopathological analysis showed mild gill hyperplasia and mild necrosis of liver parenchymal cells in several individuals of each experimental group. These conditions were also observed in the control group and were not thought to be related to the inclusion of feed additives. The present findings indicate that the dietary inclusion of additives did not affect growth performance, fatty acid composition, gene expression, and histopathological changes in juvenile flounder. However, plasma triglyceride content may be reduced by supplementation with 5% kelp meal, 3% onion powder, 1% garlic powder, 1% ginger powder, 1% mugwort powder, and the additive mixture.
