Abstract: Effects of Ulva Meal on Growth Performance of Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) at Different Levels of Dietary Lipidproduction cost in sea bream and any changes in the cost of feed or feed ingredients will have a relatively huge impact on the total cost production.Therefore, it is critical to preserve the price of finfish diet as low as possible whereas aquafeed provide indispensable nutrients to fish for maximum growth and minimum environmental impacts (Glencross et al., 2007;Tacon and Metian, 2008).Gilthead sea bream do not appear to use high dietary lipid rates as efficiently as rainbow trout and salmon.Lipids are one of the important nutrients for carnivorous finfish (Sargent et al., 2002).Dietary lipid is a source of energy for metabolism,
