Abstract

The present study investigates the impact of creatine supplementation on the behavioural patterns and external morphology of Koi (Cyprinus rubrofuscus), a widely cultured ornamental fish species. Creatine, a naturally occurring nitrogenous organic acid, is known in for its role in cellular energy metabolism and has been shown to influence various physiological processes in vertebrates. Despite its popularity as a dietary supplement in human and livestock nutrition, limited research exists of creatine on the aquatic organisms, particularly ornamental fish. In this experimental study, Koi specimens were subjected to a controlled environment and divided into three groups: a control group receiving a standard diet and two experimental groups supplemented with creatine. Behavioural observations were analysed by noticing the changes in swimming patterns, feeding behaviour, and overall activity levels. Additionally, external morphological parameters such as body shape, fin development, and coloration were assessed to detect any noticeable variations between the control and experimental groups. Preliminary findings suggest that creatine supplementation may influence the behavioural repertoire of Koi, including alterations in swimming dynamics and feeding habits. Moreover, external morphological analyses reveal potential changes in fin morphology and coloration patterns in response to creatine supplementation. This research contributes to our understanding of the physiological effects of creatine in aquatic organisms, shedding light on its potential applications in aquaculture and the ornamental fish industry. Further investigations are warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and long-term consequences of creatine supplementation on Koi and other ornamental fish species.
