Canola bran in piavuçu <em>Leporinus macrocephalus</em> (Garavello & Britski) feeding, during initial phase
Abstract
This research aimed to investigate the effects of canola bran (CB) inclusion, replacing the soybean bran crude protein in piavuçu diet, Leporinus macrocephalus (Garavello & Britski) (Characiformes, Anastomidae), in initial phase. One hundred fingerlings (8.51 ± 0.07g) were assigned to a completely randomized block design with five replications, totalizing 25 fishes per treatment. Four isocaloric (3,000kcal ED/kg) and isoproteic (30% CP) diets were formulated, based on corn, soybean bran and fish flour, containing 0%; 19.12%; 38.24% and 57.36% CB. Variance analysis showed no effect of CB inclusion on feed intake survival, carcass yield and composition, visceral fat and hepato somatic index. Quadratic effect of CM inclusion was observed (11,19%) on weight gain. Feed gain ratio and protein efficiency ratio were negatively influenced by CB inclusion. The inclusion of 11.19% CB resulted in better performance and carcass yield.Downloads
