“…This suggests that, despite the lower overall EPA, PUFA, and HUFA supplied by the instar-II+ Artemia, it is sufficient to meet the demands for the somatic growth of the larvae. The closely related Galaxias maculatus has shown that, when cultured under high-salinity conditions, higher levels of EPA and PUFA are not critical, while DHA is important in the larval development of the eye and neural networks, which can lead to detrimental impacts on the feeding ability, growth performance, and survival [28,31,[33][34][35][36][37]. In the present study, the DHA fatty acid level was absent in both Artemia feeds.…”
