This study was conducted to evaluate nutritional values of selected commercial fish meals (FM) with two experiments in diets of turbot. In experiment I, five diets based on two Peruvian anchovy meals (one is a flame‐dried FM: Peru‐1 and the other steam‐dried FM: Peru‐2), a Danish FM (Danish LT), a domestic anchovy LT meal (Domestic LT) and an Alaskan white FM (WFM) as major protein source were formulated to contain 56% protein. The diets were fed to fish with an initial average weight of 119.4 ± 0.1 g for 9 weeks. Growth rate, feed utilization, whole body and visceral compositions, nitrogen, lipid and energy balances did not significantly change in Experiment 1 among the treatments. In Experiment 2, four diets based on three FMs (Domestic LT, Danish LT and Peru‐1) and their mixture (Mix FM) were formulated to contain 50% protein and fed to triplicated groups of fish with an average initial weight of 51.4 ± 0.1 g for 6 weeks. Once again, there were no significant differences in growth rate and feed consumption among the treatments. However, fish on Mix FM diet had significantly better FCR and PER than the others. The results of two experiment indicated that Danish LT and Domestic LT were better in terms of phosphorus (P) retention and losses than two Peruvian FMs and WFM, suggesting that although different sources of FMs were comparable in terms of growth and feed utilization, they could lead to substantial differences in environmental impacts.
