The experiment was conducted for 60 days to determine the protein requirement using a semipurified diet for juvenile Barytelphusa cunicularis. A total of five diets were formulated containing protein level of 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 % with gross energy ranges from 4.24 to 4.27 kcal g-1. No significant difference (P > 0.05) was found in water stability among test diets after immersion for 1, 2 and 4 hours for prepared diets. Juvenile fed a diet containing 35% protein level exhibited significantly higher (P < 0.05) carapace width gain %, carapace length gain %, weight gain %, specific growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) than those feds other protein diets. Dietary protein levels did not affect (P > 0.05) on the survival. Significantly higher (P < 0.05) moulting frequency % (MF%) was obtained in crab fed 35% protein diet than other diets. Hepatopancreatic tubules showed more abundant R-cells in a juveniles fed 35% protein diet than those feds other protein diets. Nevertheless, based on these results, it is estimated that the dietary protein requirement for juvenile B. cunicularis is 35% with semipurified diet. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
