This paper introduces nutritional value of corn gluten meal(CGM),and reviews the effects of CGM on growth performance,palatability,apparent digestibility and balance of amino acids of the CGM or the feeds,body biochemical index,muscle composition and aquatic environment when the aquatic animals were fed with the diets containing CGM.The ways to improve the utilization of CGM by aquatic animals are also discussed.It should be further researched focusing on metabolism of CGM in different aquatic animals,effect of the replacement of fish meal by CGM on disease resistance,immunity and meat flavor.With rising raw material prices,the replacement of other animal proteins execpt fish meal by CGM will be of significance.
