# Hawaiian trials raise carnivorous fish on fish-free feed | Feed Strategy

> Feed Strategy reports that researchers in Hawaii raised kampachi on entirely fish-free feed built from commercially available components. The diet uses poultry meal in place of fishmeal and a canola, flax and algae oil blend in place of fish oil. Falling poultry meal costs and cheaper algae oils made the diet commercially viable.
