Farklı protein seviyesi içeren yemlerin tatlısuda yetiştirilen Avrupa levreği (Dicentrarchus labrax L., 1758) yavrularının büyüme ve yaşama oranları üzerine etkisi

Öz

Bu çalışmada tatlı suda yetiştirilen yavru levrek (Dicentrarchus labrax L.,1758) balıklarının beslenmesinde farklı protein oranları içeren yemlerin kullanımının büyüme performanslarına üzerine etkisi araştırılmıştır. Ortalama canlı ağırlıkları 1,0 ± 0,03 gram olan levrek yavruları, tatlı suya adaptasyonlarından sonra 120 litre hacimdeki tanklarda üçer tekrarlı olacak şekilde stoklanmıştır. Çalışmada kullanılan yemler farklı protein / benzer yağ içeriğindedir. Buna göre deneme grupları 45CP (%45 HP / %18 HY), 50CP (%50 HP / %18 HY) ve 55CP (%55 HP / %18 HY) olarak isimlendirilmiştir. Deneme sonunda en yüksek canlı ağırlık artışı 5,84 ± 0,03 g ile 55CP grubunda iken diğer gruplarda 5,73 ± 0,09 g (45CP), 5,8 ± 0,08 g (50CP) olarak tespit edilmiştir. SGR oranları her üç grup için benzer oranlarda olup gruplar arasında istatistiki bir farklılık bulunmamaktadır (P>0,05). Grupların SGR değerleri sırası ile 1,94 ± 0,04 (45CP), 1,89 ± 0,01 (50CP), 1,91 ± 0,02 (55CP) olarak hesaplanmıştır. FCR değerlerine bakıldığında 45CP ve 55CP grupları arasında istatistiki bir farklılık tespit edilmemişken, 50CP grubu istatistiki olarak diğer gruplardan daha düşük bir FCR oranı göstermiştir (P<0,05). FCR değerleri sırası ile 1,36 ± 0,05, 1,29 ± 0,03, 1,37 ± 0,04 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Grupların yaşama oranları arasında bir farklılığa rastlanmamıştır. Çalışma sonucuna göre özellikle yavru dönemlerinde levrek balıklarının tatlı suda yetiştirilebileceği, halen kullanılmakta olan ticari yemlere göre daha düşük oranlarda protein içeren yemlerle de balıkların beslenebileceği gözlenmiştir.

Abstract

In this study, the effect of the use of feeds containing different protein ratios on the growth performance of juvenile sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L., 1758) reared in freshwater was investigated. Sea bass fry with an average body weight of 1.0 ± 0.03 g were stocked in 120 liter tanks in triplicate after their adaptation to freshwater. The feeds used in the study had different protein/similar fat content. Accordingly, the experimental groups were named as 45CP (45% CP / 18% CF), 50CP (50% CP / 18% CF) and 55CP (55% CP / 18% CF). At the end of the experiment, the highest body weight gain was 5.84 ± 0.03 g in the 55CP group, while the other groups were 5.73 ± 0.09 g (45CP) and 5.8 ± 0.08 g (50CP). SGR rates were similar for all three groups and there was no statistical difference between the groups (P>0.05). SGR values of the groups were calculated as 1.94 ± 0.04 (45CP), 1.89 ± 0.01 (50CP), 1.91 ± 0.02 (55CP), respectively. There was no statistical difference between the 45CP and 55CP groups, while the 50CP group showed a statistically lower FCR rate than the other groups (P<0.05). FCR values were calculated as 1.36 ± 0.05, 1.29 ± 0.03, 1.37 ± 0.04, respectively. There was no difference between the survival rates of the groups. According to the results of the study, it was concluded that sea bass fish can be raised in freshwater, especially in the fry stage, and that it is more effective than the commercial feeds currently used.
