All feed formulas developed by Aller Aqua at the Aller Aqua Research Centre follow these requirements to ensure proper growth and health:
High-Protein Diet: European catfish require a protein-rich diet (35-45%) to support rapid growth. Common protein sources include fish meal, plant-based proteins (soy, wheat, and pea protein), and byproducts from the meat industry.
Fat and Energy Needs: A fat content of 10-20% provides essential energy for growth and development.
Essential Nutrients: Vitamins (A, D, E, and B-complex) and minerals (calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium) are required to maintain health and disease resistance.
