Fish aquaculture costs have including investment and operational costs including feed, energy, labor, fuel, oxygen, water, and medicament costs. The feed cost regarding about 40-60% from fish production. Hence, there is a need to reduce the cost of feed with increasing the growth performance and high survival rate of fish. Seaweed are a shelter for different generations of marine organisms to promote growth and feed efficiency. Moreover, they act as possible alternative protein sources for farmed fish because of their high protein content and productivity.
