摘要:The use of models to examine feed use and growth in fish is not a new concept (Ursin, 1967;
Cuenco et al., 1985; Machiels and Henken, 1986; Cacho, 1990). Many of these models have been
based on describing flows of energy and nutrients as governed by fundamental thermodynamic
and energetic principles. The recent revival of these models for use in aquaculture has seen
their rapid adoption by the scientific and industrial community as their value for use in research
and fish production management becomes more apparent (Kazmierczak and Caffey, 1995; Cho
and Bureau, 1998; Lupatsch and Kissil, 1998). The nature of some of these models can be
quite complex, though the added complexity does not necessarily result in an improved model
for practical purposes, but they certainly become more theoretically correct. These simple
discrepancies highlight some of the present limitations to these models, but certainly do not
diminish their value.
