aVitamin and mineral premix (kg−1 of diet) includes the following contents: thiamine, 5 mg; riboflavin, 10 mg; vitamin A, 5000 IU; vitamin E, 40 mg; vitamin D3, 1000 IU; menadione, 10 mg; pyridoxine, 10 mg; biotin, 0.1 mg; cyanocobalamin, 0.02 mg; calcium pantothenate, 20 mg; folic acid, 1 mg; niacin, 40 mg; vitamin C, 150 mg; iron, 100 mg; iodine, 0.8 mg; cupper, 3 mg; zinc, 50 mg; manganese, 12 mg; selenium, 0.3 mg; and cobalt, 0.2 mg. bAdding methionine and lysine was to avoid amino acid imbalance after fishmeal replacement. cSAP refers to the sulfate-based alginate polysaccharide supplementation, which was provided by Haixingyuan Biological Technology Co., Ltd. (Qingdao, China). dMoisture, crude protein, crude lipid, and ash were measured values.
