Abstract:Burbot (Lota lota maculosa) hold enormous potential for freshwater commercial aquaculture. Current larval burbot rearing involves providing live prey for initial feeding. Two trials were conducted to investigate the reduction of live prey for larval burbot. In Trial 1, five treatments were evaluated: the control group (C) received rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis) and Artemia spp. from 11‐50 days post‐hatch (DPH). Treatment one (Trt 1) had live feeds from 11‐78 DPH, treatment two (Trt 2) received only micropart… Show more
