Abstract: 

The production of fish feed additives for the aquaculture industry is a thriving sector in China. These natural substances are being used for several purposes including the enhancement of the immune systems of farmed fish, promoting growth, attaining the desired flesh and skin pigmentation, as well as improving the organolepctic properties of the farmed product. At the same time, the use of such additives has no negative impacts to the farming environment.
