In this study, the effects of supplementation of cinnamon oil on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) feeds on fish growth performance, feed evaluation and blood parameters were investigated. In this scope, experimental diets containing cinnamon oil at 5 different concentrations of 0 mL/kg (TY0), 1 mL/kg (TY1), 2 mL/kg (TY2), 4 mL/kg (TY4) and 10 mL/kg (TY10) were prepared. During the 60 days of the study, the rainbow trout weights of 10,68±0,35 g were used and the experiment was carried out in 100 L volume aquariums with 5 groups of 3 replicate. In the feeding experiment, growth performance and feed utilization of the groups fed with cinnamon oil increased significantly compared to the control group. It was determined that cinnamon oil had significantly increasing effect on erythrocyte, hemoglobin amount and hematocrit ratio in fish. In addition, cinnamon oil decreased the level of serum glucose, triglyceride and cholesterol in the fish, and increased the total protein and albumin content. As a result, feed containing 4 mL/kg of cinnamon oil was affected fish growth performance and blood parameters positively.

Aquaculture development is influenced by various environmental factors and nutrition with herbal additives can affect the growth in aquaculture and to improve indicators such as digestibility, nutrition effectiveness and food taste. The purpose of this study was to trace growth performance, meat quality and biochemical blood parameters (glucose, urea, creatinine, total protein, albumin, ASAT, ALAT, Ca, P, Mg, triglycerides, cholesterol) of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss W.) fed with additive blessed thistle (Cnicus benedictus L.) extract. To achieve the objective a control group (no added) and an experimental (with added 1363 mg.kg-1 of blessed thistle extract) option, each with a two repetition, were set in a recirculating system in the Aquaculture Base of the Faculty of Agriculture at the Trakia University. Forty specimens from the fish species rainbow trout with an average weight of fish 13.32+3.07 g (control) and 13.33+2.58 g (experimental) in good health condition were placed in each tank and cultivated for 60 days. At the end of the experiment were calculated average final weight, specific growth rates, feed conversion ratio, meat quality and blood parameters. Trout from the experimental group, fed with supplement had with 8.52% higher average final weight compared to the parameter value of fish from control (P<0.001). The blood biochemical parameters ASAT and ALAT in control variant were higher with 27.4% and 44% respectively, compare to values of this parameter of fish from the experimental (P>0.05). Experimental fish fed with additive blessed thistle have a higher electrolytes level of magnesium (Mg) with 5.26% compared to control group (P>0.05). The protein content in the fish of the control group and experimental were of close value, but not statistically proven. The blessed thistle supplementation in the diet led to lower the lipid content in the fillets of the rainbow trout with 19.7% compare to values of this parameter of fish from control group and was statistically proven (P<0.05). This result shows that fish fed with the supplement are more useful and dietetic in their quality as human food. Rainbow trout fed with blessed thistle supplement have better growth performance and blood parameters.

Aquaculture’s sustainability deeply relies on the identification and inclusion of alternative raw materials. Although meals from insects and/or byproducts from different industries are being recently tested, the meal from terrestrial vegetable species is still the main substitution candidate for fish meal. Here the effects of 0% (Control), 10% (A10) and 30% (A30) inclusion of Narbonne vetch (Vicia narbonensis; ZV-156 strain) meal in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) diets was assessed in a 63-day feeding trial by means of growth performance, histopathological, nutritional value of the fish fillet and blood biochemistry analyses. A dose-response trial was conducted in triplicate with 25 rainbow trout juveniles (20 g average body weight) per 500 L tank. Narbonne vetch meal decreased total intestine protease activity in vitro (from 26.81% to 48% inhibition), although high temperature partially inhibited the action of antinutritional factors (ANFs). No differences in fish growth performance and no severe histopathological alterations on the proximal intestine were observed between 10% Narbonne vetch inclusion and Control groups. In contrast, high inclusion (30%) of Narbonne vetch led to poor growth performance (30% reduction on final growth) and severe histopathological alterations (e.g., loss of brush border integrity, high number of villi fusion, reduced goblet cells density as well as reduced width of submucosa, muscular and serosa layers). Furthermore, while the A30 diet decreased docosahexaenoic fatty acid (FA) content in fish fillets, the A10 diet improved monounsaturated FA content when compared to that of the Control group. No altered levels of cholesterol, glucose or triglycerides in blood plasma and/or histopathological effects on the liver were observed among fish fed the different experimental diets. Although further research efforts (e.g., identifying potential enzymatic treatments to decrease the action of ANFs from Narbonne vetch meal) might be required, present results show that a low inclusion (10%) of Narbonne vetch in rainbow trout diets is possible. The inclusion of locally produced legumes such a Narbonne vetch might be an interesting approach to reduce carbon footprint in European aquaculture and the dependency on other alternative raw materials such as soybean (Glycine max) imported from third countries.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of cinnamon in high- and low carbohydrate diets on the physiology of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss (16.12±1.33 g). Six experimental diets including control/LCarb (200 g/kg carbohydrate), LCarb-3C (200 g/kg carbohydrate, 30 g/kg cinnamon), LCarb-5C (200g/kg carbohydrate, 50 g/kg cinnamon), HCarb (300 g/kg carbohydrate), HCarb-3C (300 g/kg carbohydrate, 30 g/kg cinnamon), and HCarb-5C (300 g/kg carbohydrate, 50 g/kg cinnamon) were formulated to feed fish for eight weeks. The results showed that fish fed dietary LCarb-3C (72.64 g) and LCarb-5C (73.17 g) had higher weight gain as compared with treatments without cinnamon (P<0.05). Blood performance in LCarb3C (67.10) was significantly higher than the HCarb-3C group (P<0.05). Fish fed dietary LCarb-3C had the best performance so that cinnamon in this group lowered glucose, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein, improved total protein, and highdensity lipoprotein contents. Supplementation of this herb also improved protease and lipase in LCarb-3C and LCarb-5C groups as compared with control. Individuals fed supplemented diets but not HCarb had a higher superoxide dismutase activity when compared with the control group (P<0.05). Generally, cinnamon improved parameters in this study in fish fed a low-carbohydrate diet rather than a high-carbohydrate diet.

The present research aimed to examine the effect of dietary phytoextracts supplementation on the growth performance, haematological (white blood cells, red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit) and biochemical (glucose, urea, creatinine, total protein, albumin, ASAT, ALAT) blood parameters of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss W.), cultivated in a recirculation system. The fish were divided into 6 groups: one control (C) and five experimental groups in whose food was added phytoextracts of curcumin (EC), paprika (EP), thyme (ET), oregano (EO) and garlic (EG). The inclusion of phytoextracts had no significant effect on growth parameters of fish from EC, EP, ET, EO and EG groups (P>0.05). Statistically significantly lower feed consumption per unit weight gain was observed in EO group vs C (Р<0.05). The phytoextract supplementation had significant influence on some of the haematological (white blood cells, red blood cells, hemoglobin) and biochemical (urea, creatinine, total protein, albumin, ASAT, ALAT) blood parameters of rainbow trout.

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of dietary antibiotic (amoxycillin/clavulanic acid) and probiotic on the some immunological and serum biochemical health characteristics of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Lysozyme activity, myeloperoxidase activity, total protein, albumin, globulin, triglyceride and cholesterol of rainbow trout was not affected by any of the dietary additives tested. The serum glucose in antibiotic group was significantly higher than the control group. However, the GOT level in antibiotic group was lower than the control group. In addition, compared with the control group, the LDH and ALP were deceased significantly in the antibiotic and probiotic treatments. This study is a single experimental model, and further investigations on the use of different concentrations of probiotic in different fish species and different fish pathogens are encouraged in terms of the evaluation of various blood parameters, since it is likely that the responses of fish seem to be subject to change in relation to different doses or time.

AbstractUsing two methods of food delivery, defensible (D) and indefensible (ID), the effect of restricted feeding (RF) on the development of feeding anticipatory activity (FAA) and growth performance of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was investigated. Six glass aquaria (120 × 30 × 80 cm), divided equally into 3 sections of morning, afternoon and evening of location of food delivery each with eight fish were selected for D and ID methods. The fish were subjected to a time-RF schedule for 70 days. Food delivery was restricted to three feeding periods; one hour per feeding session: morning (0800-0900 h), afternoon (1300-1400 h) and evening (1800-1900 h). Food was withheld on days 28, 42, 56 and 70 (test days) to assess FAA by the fish and fish growth parameters were determined at the end of the experiment. The present results clearly indicate that only using an indefensible (ID) pattern of food delivery, rainbow trout can simultaneously anticipate three daily meals and synchronise their feeding activity before the period of food availability and that the best FCR and SGR were achieved when an ID pattern of food delivery was offered. The lack of development of FAA for fish in the D method could be due to development of dominant hierarchies. This led to reduction of most growth parameters in the D method compared to the ID one.

In this study, the effects of Ferulago angulata extract on the growth, haematological, and immunological indices of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fingerlings were evaluated. Basal diet was supplemented with 0 (control), 0.5, 1, and 2 g·kg-1 F. angulata and was randomly allocated to experimental fish of an initial average weight of 7.45 ± 0.02 g. After 8 weeks of experiment, the fish supplemented with F. angulata extract showed increased but non-significant (P > 0.05) growth performance. No significant differences were found between trial control groups in haematological indices such as red blood cell count, haematocrit, and haemoglobin, but there was a significant increase in white blood cells, lymphocytes, neutrophils and monocytes in the F. angulata extract groups (P < 0.05). Also, there were significant differences between the fish supplemented with dietary F. angulata extract and the control group regarding immunological indices, including immunoglobulin M, lysozyme, and classical and alternative complement pathway (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that the administration of F. angulata extract has a positive effect on the immunological indices and the immune system activity in rainbow trout fingerling.
