Abstract
The objective of this study was to compare the effects of dietary lipids on growth and liver histopathology of hybrid tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus x O. aureus, fry (6.0 g). Fish were fed one of six diets containing 8.4% fish oil (control), 8.4% soy-acid oil, 8.4% yellow grease, 5.6% yellow grease plus 2.8% soy-acid oil, 2.8% yellow grease plus 4.6% soy-acid oil, or 4.2% soy-acid oil plus 4.2% yellow grease for 60 days. Growth was similar in all groups and retarded in compari- son to earlier studies. Lipid accumulation as well as microvesicular (foamy degeneration) and macrovesicular degeneration in the liver were histopathologically detected.
