Nutrient requirements of fish

The nutrient requirements of fish focus on the specific amounts and balance of major nutrients needed for maintenance, growth, reproduction, health, and efficient feed use. For examination purposes, you must master the roles and requirements of proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and water, and understand how fish species, age, and culture conditions affect these needs.
