Abstract: The review briefly describing the importance of macroalgae “seaweed†as renewable source of fish feed. 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. They have been declared as a “super feed†, which has significant positive effects on fish performance due to their nutritive and biological values.
