Effects of spray-dried algae, Schizochytrium sp. and Haematococcus pluvialis, on growth and survival of Manila clam, Tapes philippinarum, spat were determined. Results of the present study showed that these two different spray-dried diets supported clam growth when added as supplements to rations of a mixed diet of the live algae...
Palmaria mollis (Pacific dulse) is increasingly being used in land-based marine aquaculture. This work elucidates nutrient, inorganic carbon, light, salinity, and temperature requirements of P. mollis as food for abalone species. Nutrient additions every 5 to 7 days resulted in no significant difference in P. mollis growth compared with daily...
In the present study, the potential of low-melting point lipids, namely methyl palmitate (MP) and menhaden stearine (MS), were studied for delivery of water-soluble materials to fish larvae. Addition of the solid emulsifier, sorbitan monopalmitate (SMP) resulted in higher RE compared to the liquid emulsifier sorbitan sesquioleate (SSO). Additions of...
