The present study aimed to evaluate the possibility of reducing the dietary protein content for post-larvae of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) through diet supplementation with taurine amino acid. Six practical isoenergetic (15.48 kJ ME/g) diets were formulated to contain two protein concentrations (35% and 45% crude protein, CP) and 3 levels of taurine supplementation (0, 5 and 10 g/kg) in a 2 × 3 factorial scheme, with four replicates. One hundred post-larvae (initial weight 0.14 ± 0.01 g) were […]
