Effects of brown alga (Sargassum fulvellum (Turner) C. Agardh, 1820) supplementation on growth performance, blood profile, and liver histopathology of juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus Linnaeus, 1758)

Alternative feed ingredients for high value cultured fish are necessary to lessen feed amount and operation costs while meeting the fish's nutritional requirements. Sargassum fulvellum supplementation in diets of juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was employed to determine its effect...

Highest average weight gain (545.705.47%), specific growth rate (18.450.28%), highest percentage survival (8817%), and viscera somatic index (12.440.74) were observed in 6% SFM diet.
