This third edition of Fish Nutrition is a comprehensive treatise on nutrient requirements and metabolism in major species of fish used in aquaculture or scientific experiments. It covers nutrients required and used in cold water, warm water, fresh water, and marine species for growth and reproduction. It also highlights basic physiology and biochemistry of the nutrients and applications of these principles to scientific and practical diet formulations and to manufacturing techniques for major species used worldwide in aquaculture.*Nutrient requirements for dietary formulations for fish farming*Digestive physiology*Comparative nutritional requirements of different species*Fish as unique animals for certain metabolic pathways

Fish Nutrition aims to present the state of knowledge of basic and applied nutritional requirements of fishes. Most of the information found in this book involves salmonids, their nutrition, and metabolism of nutrients. This is in view of the fact that more research has been done and completed with this fish. Although applied fish nutrition is a very broad field, this book focuses on some of its aspects. These include the classes of nutrients and requirements for several types of fishes. This book comprises of 11 chapters. The first few chapters deal with the general nutrient requirements of fishes. Then, other chapters discuss calorie and energy as well as micro- and macronutrient needs and...
Growing interest in hydrobiology and the resulting increase in facilities for education and research have made an up-to-date directory of hydrobiological laboratories in North America a necessity. The present directory, listing 187 laboratories, with provisions for instruction and research and scope of activities, is designed to be useful not only research scholars but to young scientists in training and to visiting investigators as well. The address, senior officer, institutional affiliation, objectives, scope of activities, season of operation, and environments stressed are given for each laboratory. In addition, major research facilities, capital equipment, and provisions for publications...
