Broodfish have a much greater requirement for digestible protein and the essential amino acids than growout fish. This is primarily& because proteins are the major component in vitellogenin. Low or poor quality protein levels in brood fish diets have been associated with poor fertility and egg and larval quality in a number of fish species. To optimise brood fish efficiency, Vitalis contains a high level of digestible protein derived from highly palatable sources.
