Abstract
The present manuscript provides the first documented data on lipid nutrition of the Gulf corvina, a novel candidate species for aquaculture in Northwest Mexico. Significantly increased lipid deposition, concomitant with reduced moisture content in muscle and whole body, were observed in response to incremental levels of dietary lipid. A clear dose-response effect of dietary crude fat was observed on growth, with an estimated requirement for dietary crude fat of 11.4%, when fed a diet containing 40% crude protein.
