Claim: 1. An extruded rearing fish fodder for fresh water fish, comprising proteins, fats and carbohydrates and the extruded fish fodder further comprising at least 1.09% of phosphorous (P), at least 0.72% of potassium (K), at least 1.34% of calcium (Ca), at least 0.64% of sodium (Na) and at least 0.17% of magnesium (Mg), on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder; wherein the summed total amount of phosphorous, potassium, calcium, sodium and magnesium in the extruded fodder is at least 5.79% and less than 7.31% on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
Claim: 2. The rearing fish fodder according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of phosphorous (P) is within the range 1.1-2.1%, on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
Claim: 3. The rearing fish fodder according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of potassium (K) is within the range 0.7-1.1%, on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
Claim: 4. The rearing fish fodder according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of calcium (Ca) is within the range 1.3-3.0%, on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
Claim: 5. The rearing fish fodder according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of sodium (Na) is within the range 0.6-0.9%, on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
Claim: 6. The rearing fish fodder according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of magnesium (Mg) is within the range of 0.17-0.21%, on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
Claim: 7. A method of improving the growth of a freshwater fish, the method comprising the steps of: providing an extruded rearing fodder, the fodder comprising proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and at least 1.09% of phosphorous (P), at least 0.72% of potassium (K), at least 1.34% of calcium (Ca), at least 0.64% of sodium (Na), and at least 0.17% of magnesium (Mg) on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder; and the summed amount of phosphorous, potassium, calcium, sodium and magnesium in the extruded fodder is at least 5.79% and less than 7.31% on a dry substance basis of the total weight of the fodder; and feeding said enhanced fish fodder to fish which reside in freshwater.
Claim: 8. The method of claim 7 wherein said fish are larger than 2 grams.
Claim: 9. The rearing fish fodder according to claim 1 , wherein the summed amount of phosphorous, potassium, calcium and magnesium in the extruded fodder is at least 4.99% and less than 6.34% on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
Claim: 10. The rearing fish fodder according to claim 1 , wherein the summed amount of phosphorous, potassium, and magnesium in the extruded fodder is at least 3.21% and less than 4.31% on a dry substance basis, of the total weight of the fodder.
