Black soldier fly larvae meal can replace fish meal in diets of sea-water phase Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) (2019, background): “Replacement of FM with BSF larvae meal in aquafeeds without negative effects on growth or performance has successfully been demonstrated in some fish feeding trials (Belghit et al., 2018a; Cummins et al., 2017; Dumas et al., 2018; Elia et al., 2018; Lock et al., 2016; Magalhães et al., 2017; Renna e”
Review of Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) as Animal Feed and Human Food (2017, background): “Ultimately BSFL’s ability to efficiently produce protein-rich edible biomass from potentially protein-poor organic wastes has led many authors to conclude that BSFL can contribute meaningfully to sustainable aquaculture as partial or total meal replacement [72–74], including for aquatic invertebrate”
Larvae Mediated Valorization of Industrial, Agriculture and Food Wastes: Biorefinery Concept through Bioconversion, Processes, Procedures, and Products (2020, background): “[83], the authors examined the possibility of the partial or complete replacement of marine fish meal in diets of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and found that BSFL meal inclusion exceeding 7% had a diminishing performance, as the deficiency in essential amino acids had negative impact ”
