Availability of amino acids in soybean meal was determined in a feeding trial with Florida pompano Trachinotus carolinus by using a standard digestibility marker method. Fecal samples were manually stripped from anesthetized fish to avoid contact with water and resultant leaching losses. Apparent amino acid availability coefficients (mean ± SD) for dehulled, solvent‐extracted soybean meal ranged from 78.4 ± 2.2% to 96.5 ± 1.0%. Apparent energy digestibility was 67.4 ± 0.8%. Apparent crude protein digestibility was 84.3 ± 0.5%.
