چکیده

Possible roles of algae (i.e. “green water”) in facilitating Macrobrachium rosenbergii larviculture have been investigated in the present study. Three types of algae were mixted with shrimp larval feed. Algal members were belonging to the family like Cyanophyceae, Chlorophyceae and Charophyceae respectively. Algal mixture was applied with control feed, showed better result in shrimp larval development. It took only 15 days to attain post larval stage, where as in conventional feeding practice it was 27 days. Algal mixture as total feed showed more or less similar result (26 days) in comparison to conventional feed. As in this formulation total animal protein was replaced, it will be effective in controlling larval diseases.
