Protein-rich distillers dried grains (DDG) from ethanol plants has been used as livestock feed for many years. Feed conversion efficiency in fish, however, is typically much higher compared to traditional livestock. But, the cost of fish feed is one of the challenges for profitable fish cultivation. Due to the exponential growth of ethanol plants in recent years, DDG is becoming readily available as a reasonably-priced base material for animal feeds, and because it has a relatively high protein content, it also has much potential for use as a fish feed ingredient. Even though much literature is available on conversion of …
