“…Similarly, in southern rock lobster, Jasus edwardsii, phyllosoma larvae showed prolonged development when live prey was too small (Ritar et al, 2003). Indeed, the relationship between prey size and larvae is a critical factor to consider in larval feeding, the disproportion of the size between food particles and larval feeding appendages may incapacitate the larvae to effectively capture the prey or despite larvae can capture and consumed the prey, they would eventually die due to unable to acquire a sufficient energy to sustain normal development (Guarizo et al, 2020;Ritar et al, 2003;Ruscoe et al, 2004;Sui et al, 2008).…”

“…There were two possible explanations for the ineffectiveness of copepod co-feeding, firstly the length of copepodite and adult P. crassirostris ranging between 195 and 445 μm (Alajmi et al, 2015); thus, most of them are smaller than Artemia nauplii (400-500 μm). As mentioned previously, the disproportion of the size of the prey and the mouthpart of larvae may render it difficult for the larvae to capture the prey (Guarizo et al, 2020). Secondly, the fast and zigzag spurting swimming behaviour characterized by calanoid copepods may make it difficult for the larvae to successfully capture and consume them (Lumasag et al, 2007).…”

Decorator crab Camposcia retusa is a popular marine ornamental species; however, it has never been bred previously. To establish a feeding regime for C. retusa larvae, which include two zoeal and a megalopal stage, three experiments were conducted. In all experiments, ≥60% of unfed 1st zoeal (Z1) larvae survived to the next stage, combined with the orange guts observed in larvae fed Artemia, suggesting Z1 larvae are facultative lecithotrophic. Experiment 1 evaluated the suitability of ss‐type rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis as prey. Z1 larvae were fed rotifer at a density from 0 to 90 ind./ml. There was no significant difference in Z1 survival among treatments (56.7–68.3%, p > 0.05); therefore, ss‐type rotifer is considered an unsuitable prey for the larvae. Experiment 2 examined the suitability and optimal density of Artemia nauplii, and co‐feeding copepod Pavocalanus crassirostris with Artemia, for larval rearing. The larvae fed 10 Artemia/ml had the highest survival to megalopae (91.3 ± 3.1%, p < 0.05). However, high mortality occurred in megalopae, resulting in poor survival to the 1st crab stage (1.3%–12.5%) in all treatments (p > 0.05). Meanwhile, co‐feeding copepods with Artemia showed significantly inferior survival and development to megalopae when compared to that of 10 Artemia/ml treatment. Experiment 3 evaluated the effects of Artemia enrichment on larval performance. The results suggested that Artemia enrichment did not improve larval survival or development. Based on our results, Artemia nauplii fed at 10 ind./ml throughout larval development appears to be appropriate for C. retusa.

Brachionus plicatilis is considered an indispensable first live feed for many fish and crustacean larvae; the demand for the species has increased globally. The mass production of the rotifer involves quality microalga and a standard diet; this culture is expensive and needs a skilled workforce. The hatchery’s incubators are likely to have limited resources leading to sudden rotifer culture crashes that ultimately disrupt the larvae production. More recently, improved sustainable rotifer production has been achieved through biofloc technology (BFT) that uses fish wastes and wheat flour. However, various carbon sources, which are typically used in BFT-based systems need to be explored and tested for their efficacies. A 4-day rotifer, B. plicatilis batch culture, was conducted in BFT systems by adding four carbon sources: molasses, rice bran, maize starch, and palm kernel expeller versus a control (without any carbon source). Fifteen 125 L containing polyethylene tanks with a water volume of 100 L were used for this experiment, and each tank was stocked with 5 × 106 rotifer (50 rotifers mL−1). Different carbon sources in triplicates including a control were tested as treatments. The carbon : nitrogen ratio in the study was maintained at 10 : 1. The rotifers were fed with Baker’s yeast at 1.0, 0.50, and 0.25 g million-−1 rotifers for the first, second, and third day and continued after that. Total ammonia–nitrogen (TAN) and pH values were found to be significantly (p<0.05) lower in all four treatments of the BFT system than in the control. Significantly higher (p<0.05) settleable solids were obtained in the molasses and rice bran treatments than those in the maize starch or palm kernel expeller. Likewise, the significantly (p<0.05) higher density of B. plicatilis and their specific growth rate were obtained in the molasses and rice bran-adding treatments, followed by those in palm kernel expeller, maize starch, and the control. This study indicates that molasses and rice bran as carbon sources when added to BFT-based systems enhance B. plicatilis production.
