| Summary: | The choice of a particular fish species for aquaculture starts a cascade of subsequent choices oflive feeds for a fish hatchery. Once a fish species is chosen, the first larval feed (zooplanktonsuch as copepods, rotifers or Artemia) may be chosen, and each of these zooplankters hasdifferent algae requirements for optimum performance. The first feed is usually determined bylarval mouth size. For this discussion, the choices are large, medium and small mouth fish larvae.The fish chosen as examples here are species raised by the author, but many other species fallinto similar categories of size and nutritional needs. |
