Abstract

Red sea bream Chrysophrys major were reared on highly oxidized scrap fish meal fermented by a
group of micro-organisms and their growth and feed efficiency were compared to those fish reared on nonfermented
and defatted scrap meals and white fish meal. Fermentation by micro-organisms decreased
POV and TBA but slightly increased VBN content in the scrap meal. The essential amino acids to total
non-essential amino acids (EAA/NEAA) showed scarcely any difference between non-fermented, defatted
or fermented scrap meals. The percentage of w3 HUFA in scrap m;al significantly improved after fermentation.
The growth and feed efficiency of fish fed on fermented scrap meal was significantly superior to those
of the nonfermented scrap meal, and was comparable to those reared on defatted scrap meal or white fish
meal.
