dc.description.abstract	Nutritional diseases of fish may develop as a result of deficiency (undernutrition), excess (overnutrition), or imbalance (malnutrition) of nutrients present in their food. The disease usually develops gradually because animals have body reserves that make up for nutritional deficiency up to a certain extent. Disease signs develop only when supply of any diet component falls below critical level. When there is too much food, the excess that is converted to fat and deposited in fish tissues and organs, may severely affect physiological functions of the fish.	en
