Abstract

A growth model of fish is formalized. The parameters in the model have been estimated from aquaria experiments with immature rainbow trout fed moist pellets. Different gastric evacuation models are evaluated. The body composition has been analyzed for different feeding regimes and fish sizes. Efficiency of growth in eggs and yolk sac fry has been estimated. Comparisons with other feeds and salmonid species have been made.
