description The objective of the present study was to validate the inclusion of bovine viscera in the diet of Guppy fish (Poecilia reticulata) as an economically viable and attractive alternative, through the evaluation of growth and reproductive performance including dehydrated bovine heart and kidney in the formulation of feed rations. The 60-day investigation was conducted at the Aquaculture Module of the Alfredo Volio Mata Experimental Station (EEAVM), using 320 animals 30 ± 2 days of age. After a fifteen-day acclimatization period, 20 individuals were randomly assigned per tank. Four experimental treatments were used: Control, which included only commercial balanced feed (BF) for Guppy fish; Treatment 1 (T1), which was composed of only commercial BF for the Tilapia-starting phase; Treatment 2 (T2), which was formulated with 52.5% commercial BF for Tilapia-phase starting phase and 47.5% dehydrated bovine heart; and Treatment 3 (T3), that was integrated with 45.3% commercial BF for Tilapia-initiation phase and 54.7% dehydrated bovine kidney. General anesthesia was used in the animals every 15 days to take measurements of total weight gain (GPT), specific growth rate (SGR), thermal growth coefficient (CTC), feed conversion (FCR), and condition factor of Fulton (K). Significant differences (p < 0.05) were found in general average weight gain (GPg) and average weight gain for females (GPh) between T1 and the rest of the treatments, with no differences between the latter. No significant differences were observed for the fecundity variable between treatments (p > 0.05), however, there was a trend (p = 0.091) of a greater number of births in treatments T2 and T3. The economic analysis showed that the Control treatment has the highest cost, followed by T3, T2, and T1, respectively. This is the reason why the use of bovine viscera, in combination with commercial foods, is considered a technically and economically viable alternative.

La investigación se realizó durante 60 días en el Módulo Acuícola de la Estación Experimental Alfredo Volio Mata (EEAVM). Se utilizaron 320 animales de 30 ± 2 días de edad. Después de un periodo de 15 días de aclimatación, se distribuyó aleatoriamente un total de 20 individuos por pecera. Se utilizaron cuatro tratamientos experimentales: Control, que incluyó únicamente alimento balanceado (AB) comercial para pez guppy; Tratamiento 1 (T1), que se compuso únicamente de AB comercial para tilapia-fase de inicio; Tratamiento 2 (T2), que fue formulado con 52,5% de AB comercial para tilapia-fase de inicio y 47,5% de corazón bovino deshidratado; y Tratamiento 3 (T3), que fue integrado por 45,3% AB comercial para tilapia-fase de inicio y 54,7% de riñón bovino deshidratado. Se empleó anestesia general en los animales cada 15 días con el fin de tomar mediciones de ganancia de peso total (GPT), tasa específica de crecimiento (SGR), coeficiente térmico de crecimiento (CTC), conversión alimenticia (FCR) y factor de condición de Fulton (K). Se encontraron diferencias significativas (p < 0.05) en ganancia de peso promedio general (GPg) y ganancia de peso promedio para las hembras (GPh) entre el T1 y el resto de tratamientos, sin diferencias entre estos últimos. No se observaron diferencias significativas para la variable de fecundidad entre tratamientos (p > 0.05). Sin embargo, se dio una tendencia (p = 0.091) de mayor cantidad de alevines nacidos en los tratamientos T2 y T3. El análisis económico mostró que el tratamiento Control posee el costo más elevado, seguido por T3, T2 y T1, respectivamente. Por esta razón se considera que el uso de vísceras bovinas, en combinación con alimentos comerciales, es una alternativa técnica y económicamente viable.Universidad de Costa Rica2024-11-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleArtículoartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/epub+zipaudio/x-m4ahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/nutrianimal/article/view/6299410.15517/nat.v18i2.62994Nutrición Animal Tropical Journal; Vol. 18 No. 2 (2024): Nutrición Animal Tropical: July-December; 134-167Nutrición Animal Tropical; Vol. 18 Núm. 2 (2024): Nutrición Animal Tropical: julio-diciembre; 134-1672215-352710.15517/nat.v18i2reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/nutrianimal/article/view/62994/62071https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/nutrianimal/article/view/62994/62073https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/nutrianimal/article/view/62994/62074https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/nutrianimal/article/view/62994/63194https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2025-01-17T13:53:09Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/62994Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:58:37.267Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
