“…The Spirulina feeding frequency (once and three times a day) on growth performance and seed production on kenyi cichlids (Maylandia lombardoi) were evaluated. The growth and the seed production on kenvi cichlids fed with Spirulina three times a day were higher compared to fed once a day [116].…”

Chlorella and Spirulina are the two of the most well-known microalgae genus. Both microalgae genus have a significant content of proteins, vitamins, pigments, fatty acids, sterols, among others, which make their production/application by the food industry quite interesting. Chlorella genus is a eukaryotic microorganism, whereas Spirulina genus (cyanobacteria) is a prokaryotic microorganism. The aim of this review was to provide an overview on Chlorella and Spirulina microalgae, particularly as an alternative source of functional foods, nutraceuticals, and food supplements, in which the following compound groups were addressed: (I) Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids; (II) Phenolic Compounds; (III) Volatile Compounds; (IV) Sterols; (V) Proteins, Amino Acids, Peptides; (VI) Vitamins; (VII) Polysaccharides; (VIII) Pigments and (IX) Food. Chlorella and Spirulina microalgae and their derivatives are concluded not to be widely commercially exploited. However, they are remarkable sources of functional foods, nutraceuticals and food supplements.

Supplementing fish feed with Arthrospira platensis has several beneficial effects, such as improved growth, survival and feed conversion, but little is known about how it affects gut microbiota or flesh quality. In this trial, feed with 3% A. platensis was given to Oreochromis niloticus (SPR, spirulina supplemented) over a period of 50 days and their gut microbiota and flesh quality were compared with controls (CTRs, no supplementation). Average daily growth was higher in SPR fish (p < 0.05). Regarding microbiota, a total of 5,470,272 readings (individuals) were obtained from 16 gut samples (n = 8 CTR, n = 8 SPR), with a gamma diversity of 1,563 species but no significant differences were found between treatments. Among the high inter‐individual variability found, some individual microbiota were dominated by Proteobacteria (36.6%) and Fusobacteria (32.9%) and others more by Actinobacteria (37%). Regarding flesh quality, significant differences were observed in flesh colour post‐mortem (a*, b* and chroma) (p < 0.05), with higher reflectance in the range of 470–500 and 620–670 nm in SPR tilapia, which corresponds with the reflectance range of β‐carotene and phycocyanin. However, rigor mortis was resolved earlier in SPR fish (p < 0.05), which suggests a shorter shelf life. Adding 3% of A. platensis in O. niloticus diet can improve growth and flesh colour and does not appear to modify intestinal microbiota.

“…Carotenoids can also improve survival rate, metabolism, reproduction and enhance resistance to several stress conditions as well as pigmentation of fish (Amar, Kiron, Akutsu, Satoh, & Takeshi, 2012;Wade et al 2015;Zelaty, Murthy, Nazarkardeh, Ahmadiyan & Meshram, 2016;Karadal, Güroy, & Türkmen, 2017) and further keep the harmful impacts of lipid peroxidation (Waagbo et al, 2003).…”

“…The natural carotenoid sources have been obtained from specific sources, such as crustaceans and plants (Gupta, Jha, Pal, & Venkateshwarlu, 2007). However, natural and synthetic carotenoids are usually added to commercial feeds for improving pigmentation of the skin and muscle flesh (Karadal et al, 2017). However, the addition of synthetic carotenoids such as astaxanthin is expensive and led to increase feed production costs and therefore, reduced profits of the aquaculture process (Choubert, Cravedi, & Laurentie, 2009).…”
