Potential of mealworm, Tenebrio molitor, meal as a sustainable dietary protein source for juvenile black porgy, Acanthopagrus schlegelii

A 12-week feeding trial was designed to evaluate the potential of mealworm, Tenebrio molitor, meal (MW) as a locally available unconventional alternative source of protein for fish meal (FM) in a practical diet for juvenile black porgy. Five hundred twenty-five healthy fish (initial weight; 6.43 ± 0...
