• Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) is a species of high commercial interest in the South-Atlantic and Mediterranean areas
• Good model species to study larval nutritional physiology:
complex metamorphosisdifficulties in weaningoccasional problems of malpigmentationhigh incidence of skeletal deformities
Introduction
• Weaning - traditional bottleneck in sole culture
Late 90´s: • Improvement of zootechnical conditions • Technological improvements in inert diets
development of “soft” microagglomerate diets containing protein hydrolysates
• Weaning of Dover sole is no problem
• Reproducibility of good weaning results is still a problem in Senegalese sole (30 to 99% survival)
Introduction
Weaning problems in sole:
• Early metamorphosis
•Acquisition of a passive bottom-feeding behaviour
• Sole prefer “soft” dietary particles
Introduction

21 DAH
• Reviews recent findings in different aspects of nutritional physiology during the development of Senegalese sole
• How can we optimize the composition of sole weaning diets?
• Which are the limiting factors for weaning sole?

Morais et al.(2004)
• Digestive enzymes activity and tracer studies using 14C-Artemia show that sole larvae, even at young stages, have a high capacity for digesting live preys
• This is reflected in a high growth potential and low mortality rates for this species during the larval stage compared to other marine fish species
• A major difference with other marine species, is the apparent absence of a true acidic digestion in the stomach

• Sudden weaning • 5 days co-feeding
Engrola et al. (2005)
Weaning
• 5 to 10mg DW is a suitable window to start weaning Senegalese sole
• Sudden weaning of fish smaller than 5mg DW does not seem to work in Senegalese sole
• Early weaning (< 5mg DW) in co-feeding may improve survival rates but at the expense of lower growth rates and higher size dispersion
•There is probably variation in the adaptation capacity of individual larvae to inert microdiets.

Lipids
• Fatty acid absorption efficiency increases with unsaturation and sole larvae spare DHA from catabolism
• Absorption efficiency in sole is highest for free FA, lowest for triacylglycerols and intermediate for phospholipids
• High dietary neutral lipid (soybean oil) results in reduced growth, and affects the capacity of Senegalese sole larvae to absorb and metabolize dietary fatty acids and amino acids

• Sole post-larvae use DAA preferentially to IAA for energy production
• A balanced dietary IAA profile may improve IAA retention.
• Protein hydrolysates are probably more available to sole post-larvae than intact proteins
• Supplementation of diets with AA in deficiency should consider that the absorption of free AA is faster than intact proteins
Protein and amino acids
• Sole larvae appear to have a good digestive capacity from the onset of exogenous feeding
• Sole have a good capacity to spare essential nutrients such as DHA and indispensable AA.
• Sole larvae may face difficulties in digesting diets with high levels of dietary neutral lipid and/or complex proteins
• A balanced dietary AA composition may improve growth and nitrogen utilization in sole larvae
