The Evaluation of Different Feeds on Brine Shrimp, Artemia parthenogenetica Culture

In this study, Artemia parthenogenetica was fed with either Spirulina (S), yeast (Y), rice bran (R), oat (O) or their combinations in 10 experimental groups triplicate for 20 days laboratory conditions and growth, biomass, feed conversion rate (FCR), specific growth (SGR), survival rate, crude protein, lipid contents were determined. The highest average body length obtained at the end of experiment 2.805±0.003 mm treatments (S) (SYR), individual dry weight 23.057 µg treatment (S). mean biomass changed between 167.2±0.003 mg 115.7±0.012 mg. value 20.9 g/m3 followed by 20.5 (SYR). FCR found to be similar (Y) 1.14±0.02. SGR 1.01±0.001 all groups. overall it ranged 78.22±1.78 - 90.64±0.06%. protein (SR) content (O). As a result, is thought that by-products such as together microalgae will economical cultivation parthenogenetica.
