Table 1. Formulation, g/kg and proximate composition, g/100 g of the diets used for meagre in trials 1 and 2.
Table 2. Fatty acid composition, g/100g total fatty acids, of the two experimental diets used in trial 2.

Figure 1. Growth curves of meagre feeding on the four experimental diets in trial 1 during the whole experimental period.
Table 4. Total body and fillet composition and liver glycogen and fat (g/100g) of trial 1 meagre dietary groups.
Figure 2. Liver histology of fish fed diets containing: (A) 43% protein and 15% lipid, (B) 43% protein and 20% lipid, (C) 47% protein and 15% lipid and (D) 47% protein and 20% lipid. In fish from groups fed with 20% lipid, hepatocyte lipid deposition was observed that was slightly improved as protein levels increased in the diets. Bars 100 μm, 20×.
