Abstract

A 62-day feeding trail was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacing fish meal with black soldier fly larvae meal on growth performance, physical indexes, body composition and nutrient retention rates of Micropterus salmoides. A total of 525 juvenile Micropterus salmoides with an initial body weight about 4.9 g were divided into 5 groups with 3 replicates in each group and 35 fish in each replicate. Five isoproteic and isolipidic diets were formulated by adding black soldier fly larvae meal to replace 0 (G0, as control), 7.5% (G7.5), 15.0% (G15), 22.5% (G22.5) and 30.0% (G30) of fish meal in diets. The results showed as follows:compared with G0 group, the feed conversion ratio was significantly increased (P<0.05) and protein efficiency ratio was significantly decreased (P<0.05) in G30 group. There were no significant differences in survival rate, feed intake, final body weight, weight gain rate and specific growth rate among groups (P>0.05). The viscerosomatic index in G7.5 and G15 groups as well as the intestinesomatic index in G15, G22.5 and G30 groups were significantly increased compared with G0 group (P<0.05), but the hepatosomatic index in G30 group was significantly decreased (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in condition factor, gastric somatic index and intraperitoneal fat ratio among group (P>0.05). Whole body ash and calcium contents in G15 and G22.5 groups were significantly decreased compared with G0 group (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in whole body moisture, crude protein, crude lipid and total phosphorus contents among groups (P>0.05). The calcium retention rate in G15 and G22.5 groups was significantly decreased compared with G0 group (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in protein, lipid, ash and phosphorus retention rates among groups (P>0.05). In conclusion, adding black soldier fly larvae meal in the diet to replace 30.0% fish meal can significantly increase the feed conversion ratio and intestinesomatic index, but significantly reduce the protein efficiency ratio and hepatosomatic index of Micropterus salmoides. Replacement of 15.0% and 22.5% fish meal with black soldier fly larvae meal can significantly reduce the whole body ash and calcium contents and inhibit calcium retention in the whole body of Micropterus salmoides.
