Suitability of the Copepod Gladioferens imparipes for Intensive Cultivation for Aquaculture
For successful economic cultivation of finfish, it is important that live food be available for early fish larvae. The benefits of providing copepods as live food are well known, but reliable supply of copepods continues to be a challenge for the industry. This chapter discusses the relative be...

| description | For successful economic cultivation of finfish, it
is important that live food be available for early
fish larvae. The benefits of providing copepods as
live food are well known, but reliable supply of
copepods continues to be a challenge for the industry.
This chapter discusses the relative benefits
of working with different types of copepods, with
special attention to the development of culture
techniques and fish-feeding trials using the
calanoid copepod Gladioferens imparipes. It is
argued that the natural history and evolution of
different copepods makes some species more
amenable to intensive cultivation than others, and
even for those that can be cultivated, some have
attributes that make them more useful than others
in different branches of the aquaculture industry.
This chapter focuses on aspects of copepod feeding
and nutrition, life cycle, and behavior in relation
to techniques for intensive cultivation. |
