The effect of macroalgal, formulated and combination diets on growth, survival and feed utilisation in the red abalone Haliotis rufescens

We believe that this manuscript describes novel insights into the efficiency of protein utilisation in juvenile red abalone fed combination diets as well as the effect of diet, particularly formulated feed inclusion level, on canned meat yields. This provides empirical information to inform commercial abalone farmers of H. rufescens when exploring dietary options for optimal culture.
