What is it about?
We focused on evaluating the variation in biofloc proximate composition as a function of the fish meal substitution level in the diet.

Why is it important?
In recent years, the increased demand for and scarcity of fish meal have caused increases in the price of formulated feed, thereby affecting the economic feasibility of aquaculture and necessitating studies for the development and evaluation of alternative diets.
Perspectives
The advancement in the knowledge of tilapia nutrition, including the use of BFT, may contribute to the sustainability of tilapia culture.
