ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of dietary crude protein (CP) and methionine (Met) levels on growth performance, feed utilization, and daily nutrient intake of juvenile Penaeus vannamei reared under 16 and 40 psu. A 2 × 3 × 2 factorial design tested six diets with CP levels (33.3 and 37.4%, as-is basis) adjusted via soy protein concentrate, and Met levels (0.6, 0.7, and 0.9%, as-is basis) supplemented with DL-methionine. Shrimp of 1.49 ± 0.11 g were fed for 91 […]
