“…The presence of juveniles in our samples from April to November suggests that the spring and summer generations mature within a relatively short time period, have an incubation period of at least 1 mo, and reproduce more than once. This reproductive strategy concurs with the life-history type reported in low latitudes for amphipod species characterized as having small body size, short maturity time, and high reproductive potentials (Sainte-Marie 1991, Cunha et al 2000, Aravind et al 2007). …”

“…in MCBs. Other factors such as algal cover, shelter, or inter-specific relationships have been re ported to influence the distribution and abundance of amphipods in estuaries (Nicolaidou & Karakiri 1989, Aravind et al 2007. Macroalgae have been con sidered as the most important factor contributing to habitat structural complexity and heterogeneity in estuaries, coastal lagoons, and shallow waters (Vázquez-Luis et al 2012), and are known to function, not only as food and nurseries, but also as shelter from predation (Poore 1994, Attrill et al 2000.…”

“…The incubaton period reported for C mizani in this study was longer than those previously reported in the Grandidierella species (5.4 days; Nayar, 1956) and (5.7 days, Shahin et al, 2023). However, other studies reported incubation times that are longer than what we found in C. mizani in this study: C. filosa , 7–15 days at 28–30°C (Hamed et al, 2016); P. hawaiensis , ~10 days at 26°C (Browne et al, 2005); E. chilkensis , 12 days at 26°C (Aravind et al, 2007); E. possjeticus , 8.9 days at 21°C (Xue et al, 2018); and C. grandimana , 10.50 days at 17°C (Baeza‐Rojano et al, 2011).…”

“…The average number of juveniles per brood produced by females of C. mizani in this study is generally low compared with the numbers produced by females of other species of amphipod: In Elasmopus levis , the average is 22.3 juveniles per brood (Borowsky, 1986); in Parhyale hawaiensis , 12.8 (Vargas‐Abúndez et al, 2021); in Grandidierella halophila , 20.8 (Shahin et al, 2023); in Victoriopisa (= Eriopisa ) chilkensis , 13.7 (Aravind et al, 2007); in Caprella scaura , 36.3 (Baeza‐Rojano, Calero‐Cano, et al, 2013); and in Cymadusa filosa , 20.00 (Hamed et al, 2016). However, we found that the number of juveniles per brood was higher than the numbers reported by Vargas‐Abúndez et al (2021) and Baeza‐Rojano et al (2011) for the amphipods E. pectenicrus (6.5 juveniles per brood) and Caprella grandimana (5.0 juveniles per brood), respectively.…”

The search for alternative live feed for aquaculture stocks has inspired research into marine amphipods. In this study, the life history of Ceradocus mizani was evaluated to better understand how this amphipod might be used in aquaculture as an alternative feed. The amphipods did not display copulatory behavior during the study period.The females were multivoltine and attained sexual maturity on average in 23.6 days at a mean length of 4.64 mm. The incubation period lasted 8.8 days, and the mean number of juveniles produced per brood during that incubation period was relatively low (7.58). Females produced a mean of 5.2 consecutive broods and 39.4 total juveniles over the life span. (i.e., 0.33 juveniles/day). Sex ratio was female skewed (1.55:1). Female size and the number of juveniles produced per brood were positively correlated (R 2 = 0.63). The mean life span for females and males was 119.4 and 91.2 days, respectively. Mean maximum length was 9.26 mm for males and 8.18 mm for females. This is the first account of the life history of C. mizani and forms the basis for future studies of this marine amphipod.

Several of our recent studies have focused on mass production of the marine Cladoceran Diaphanosoma celebensis, which can serve as a feed substitute for Artemia nauplii in the culture of larval marine fish. We compared the growth and survival rates of tiger puffer Takifugu rubripes fed D. celebensis with those fed Artemia. The group fed D. celebensis showed an increase in growth from 0.10 g to 1.78 g, while the group fed enriched Artemia had a growth from 0.10 g to 0.92 g. The survival rate of fish fed D. celebensis was 86.7% while that of fish fed enriched Artemia was 51.1%, indicating that the former group was superior to the latter both in growth and survival rate. Fatty acid analysis revealed that D. celebensis fed Nannochloropsis oculata and Schizochytrium sp. had an eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) content of 16.42% and a docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) content of 3.93%. Meanwhile, juvenile tiger puffer fed D. celebensis had an EPA content of 9.12% and a DHA content of 10.69%. Juvenile tiger puffer fed D. celebensis had a similar n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acid content to that of tiger puffer fed enriched Artemia which had an EPA content of 5.82% and a DHA content of 15.90%, indicating that no additional enrichment was required.
