Changes

The substitution of soy bean meals and/or oils for the more expensive marine fish meals/oils (e.g. menhaden or herring meal, squid oil) in commercial/retail fish diets often significantly compromises the immune system over time, and results in marine fish that cannot endure the stress of handling.

While such substitutions are often nutritionally adequate on a short-term basis, or for intermittent feedings, a diversity of marine foods provides the optimal nutrition necessary to maintain immune system function, coloration, and growth in captivity.

Due to research into quality marine diets, captive-raised marine fish often maintain superior immune function and stress resistance compared to their wild-caught counterparts.
