    How much water addition at the mixer level is acceptable and advisable to achieve optimal pellet quality, control mould growth, and maintain final feed moisture within acceptable limits?

    Does moisture loss (shrinkage) during storage lead to any change in the nutritional profile of feed ingredients?

    For herbivorous fish in large-scale aquaculture, consider these sustainable feed ingredients:

    – *Plant-Based Proteins*

    – *Algae*: Rich in omega-3 fatty acids and essential nutrients, algae-based feeds support fish growth while reducing pressure on wild fish populations.

    – *Soybeans*: Soybean meal can replace up to 25% of fishmeal without adverse effects on growth performance.

    – *Pea Proteins*: Peas provide essential proteins and amino acids for fish growth.

    – *Duckweed*: Duckweed-based meal can enhance fish growth and replace traditional fishmeal.

    – *Microalgae*

    – *Nannochloropsis*: This microalga can fully replace fishmeal in trout feed without compromising performance.

    – *Schizochytrium*: Supports growth and fatty acid deposition in fish.

    – *Insect-Based Proteins*

    – *Black Soldier Fly Meal*: Can replace up to 50% of fishmeal without adverse effects on growth performance.

    – *Other Alternatives*

    – *Rapeseed Meal*: Can replace up to 20% of fishmeal without affecting growth or immune response.

    – *Linseed Meal*: Can successfully substitute up to 56.25% of fishmeal protein without negative effects.

    – *Silkworm Pupae Meal*: Rich in proteins, lipids, and minerals, potentially lowering production costs.

    – *Fermentation-Based Proteins*

    – *Single-Cell Proteins*: Produced using waste from agriculture and food processing industries, enhancing circular economy.

    These ingredients offer promising alternatives to traditional fishmeal, supporting sustainable aquaculture practices.¹ ² ³For herbivorous fish in large-scale aquaculture, consider these sustainable feed ingredients:

    Fish diets vary depending on their species, habitat, and feeding behavior. Here’s a breakdown:

    Herbivorous Fish

    – *Algae*: Many fish feed on algae, including filamentous algae, green algae, and cyanobacteria.

    – *Aquatic plants*: Some fish eat aquatic plants, such as water lilies, cattails, and submerged vegetation.

    – *Phytoplankton*: Small plant-like organisms that drift in the water column.

    Carnivorous Fish

    – *Zooplankton*: Small animals like copepods, cladocerans, and rotifers.

    – *Insects*: Aquatic insects, such as mosquitoes, flies, and beetles.

    – *Crustaceans*: Small crustaceans like shrimp, crayfish, and crabs.

    – *Small fish*: Some fish feed on smaller fish, including fry and juveniles.

    Omnivorous Fish

    – *Algae and aquatic plants*: Many omnivorous fish eat algae and aquatic plants.

    – *Insects and small invertebrates*: They also consume insects, crustaceans, and other small animals.

    – *Detritus*: Some omnivorous fish feed on detritus, including decaying plant and animal matter.

    Filter-Feeding Fish

    – *Phytoplankton and zooplankton*: Filter-feeding fish use their gill rakers to strain small organisms from the water.

    Bottom-Feeding Fish

    – *Detritus and benthic organisms*: Bottom-feeding fish eat detritus, algae, and small organisms living on or near the substrate.

    Some examples of fish and their diets include:

    – *Tilapia*: Omnivorous, feeding on algae, aquatic plants, and small invertebrates.

    – *Salmon*: Carnivorous, feeding on zooplankton, insects, and small fish.

    – *Goldfish*: Omnivorous, feeding on algae, aquatic plants, and small invertebrates [1].Fish diets vary depending on their species, habitat, and feeding behavior. Here’s a breakdown:
