• Description:
  The dietary requirements of all aquaculture species can be categorized by different classes of compounds: proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. The purpose of this manual is to describe what fatty acids are, their nutritional importance, and ways they can be used to enrich live feeds. Two live feeds ubiquitous in the culture of aquatic organisms, the rotifer "Brachionus" sp. and the nauplii of the brine shrimp "Artemia", are the main vehicles by which the nutritional components are delivered to the fish larvae. The manual focuses on the use and enrichment of "Artemia".
