Initial larval stocking density, prey density, daily prey ration and light conditions (light intensity and photoperiod) were tested for common dentex larval rearing under experimental conditions. Experiments continued until the first peak of larval mortality. The best results in larval survival were obtained with an initial stocking density of between 10 and 40 larvae L?1, fed with at least 10 rotifers mL?1, maintaining ratios of 500–1000 rotifers larva?1, with one or two adjustments of prey density per day. The use of more than 2000 rotifers larva?1 or three daily adjustments of live prey density had negative effects on larval survival. The best light conditions for common dentex larval rearing were found using a photoperiod of 24 h L:0 h D and an intensity of at least 3.4 μmol m?2 s?1.  相似文献

Bacterial community structures were analyzed in water used for rearing fish larvae by fluorescence in situ hybridization. In Experiment 1, red sea bream Pagrus major larvae were reared in two commercial seed production tanks. The survival rate in Tank 1 was higher than in Tank 2, even though phytoplankton, Nannochloropsis sp., was added to both tanks. In Tank 2, γ-proteobacteria became dominant (∼70% of total bacteria) on day 13, there after heavy larval mortalities occurred. In Tank 1, however, α-proteobacteria and the Cytophaga-Flavobacterium cluster were predominant from day − 1 until day 13; no significant mortality was recorded. In Experiment 2, marble goby Oxyeleotris marmoratus larvae were cultured with or without Nannochloropsis sp. At the end of the experiment, larval survival rates in aquaria with Nannochloropsis sp. were significantly (P <0.05) higher than those without. In rearing water without Nannochloropsis sp., γ-proteobacteria increased during rearing. In rearing water with Nannochloropsis sp., α-prote obacteria and the Cytophaga-Flavobacterium cluster were predominant at the beginning of the experiments and the relative abundance of γ-proteobacteria was maintained at a lower level throughout the experiments. The predominance of α-proteobacteria and the Cytophaga-Flavobacterium cluster appears to be a good indicator of successful larval production.  相似文献

The suitability of inland saline water (ISW) from the Lahli‐Baniyani Fish Farm, Rohtak was investigated for the larval rearing of giant freshwater prawn (GFP), Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Six experiments were conducted. In Experiment‐I, 54% of the larvae metamorphosed to postlarvae (PL) in constituted seawater (CSW) whereas total mortality occurred at larval stages (LS)‐II and LS‐III in ISW with salinity of 12 g L?1. Larvae survived to LS‐IV in Experiment‐II, when ISW was supplemented with K+~ SW. In Experiment‐III, total hardness in ISW was reduced serially, but K+ ~ SW was supplemented. The larvae did not survive beyond LS‐V. In Experiment‐IV, ISW was amended with different ratios of Mg2+/Ca2+ and K+ ~ SW. The larvae successfully metamorphosed to postlarvae with highest survival of 51.6% in Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of 2.5. In Experiment‐V, eight larval cycles were run with water quality used in Experiment V, where all the cycles produced PL's with a survival rate of 20–67%. In Experiment VI, the larvae were reared in Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of 2.5 and different levels of K+ to optimize its requirement. The ISW amended with K+ 80% ~ SW and Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of 2.5 was found to be commercially suitable for the seed production of GFP.  相似文献

The green water technique has been widely shown to improve fish larvae growth, survival and feed ingestion. Therefore, fish larvae (Sparus aurata L. and Solea senegalensis Kaup) feeding behaviour was studied through gut content analysis, when using different species of microalgae, as the ‘green water’ technique. Six treatments were used: Stain – food green stain; Tetra – microalgae Tetraselmis chuii; Iso – microalgae Isochrysis galbana; Tetra Sup –T. chuii supernatant (obtained from centrifugation); Phyto – a microalgae paste, Nannochloropsis oculata, (Phytobloom®); and C water – clear water, as control. At 9, 16 and 23 days after hatching (DAH) for S. aurata, and 4, 9 and 14 DAH for S. senegalensis, 40 unfed fish larvae were transferred to 3 L experimental tanks, filled with the different ‘green water’ technique. Fish larvae were sampled 2 h after being fed with live prey, anaesthetized and fixed in buffered formaldehyde for posterior gut content determination. Feeding was evaluated by the feeding rate, percentage of larvae with prey items in the digestive tract and feeding intensity, number of prey in each larva digestive tract. Fish larvae feeding ability was influenced by the interaction between light conditions and substances provided by the presence of microalgae during fish larvae development. Sparus aurata was more dependent on microalgae addition than S. senegalensis larvae, which may be related to the type of prey, larval behaviour, ontogeny and physiology. The presence of microalgae influenced the selection of larger prey (Artemia over rotifers) by S. aurata aged 23 DAH.  相似文献

Larvae of two Mediterranean Sparidae species, Sparus aurata and Dentex dentex , were used to test the efficacy of a peroxide-based product (Ox-Aquaculture©) on the reduction in bacterial load in larval rearing water and its effects on larval survival. Eleven-day-old S. aurata larvae and 15-day-old D. dentex larvae were exposed to different concentrations of Ox-Aquaculture© (50, 100 and 200 mg L−1, and 20 and 50 mg L−1 respectively) for 1 h. Results indicated that 50 and 20 mg L−1 were the most effective concentrations for the reduction in bacterial load (at least one order of magnitude) after 1 h treatment, without affecting larval survival and/or vitality in 11 dph S. aurata and 15 dph D. dentex larvae respectively. Ox-Aquaculture© concentrations of 200 and 50 mg L−1 during 1 h affected negatively final survival rate of the larvae of S. aurata and D. dentex respectively.  相似文献

An important constraint to the commercial rearing of the marine ornamental shrimp Lysmata debelius is high larval mortality during early stages due to inappropriate procedures of larval collection and not feeding a live prey before one day elapsed after hatching. This incorrect feeding practice is commonly adopted in larval rearing of L. debelius and other ornamental marine shrimps because it is wrongly assumed that reserves of the newly hatched are enough for the first 24 h of life. Present work demonstrates that captive newly hatched L. debelius larvae ingest microalgae within minutes after hatching. When fed solely with Artemia nauplii, they have acceptable survival rates with stocking densities at or below 50 larval L–1; but when nauplii are combined with microalgae, survival is further improved to zoea 2 as initial mortality is reduced, and higher stocking densities are supported (up to 75 larvae L–1). The microalgae used were Rhinomonas reticulata, Skeletonema costata and Tetraselmis chuii. Higher survival through metamorphosis to zoea 2 was always observed for groups fed combinations of microalgae including Tetraselmis chuii. It is recommended that, larval collection methods ensure that larvae are fed microalgae within 2–3 h of release.  相似文献

This research examined the effect of initial stocking density and feeding regime on larval growth and survival of Japanese flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. Larval rearing trials were conducted in nine 50‐L tanks with different initial stocking densities combined with different feed rations (20 larvae/L with standard feed ration [LD], 80 larvae/L with standard feed ration [HD], and 80 larvae/L with four times the standard feed ration [HD+]). Larvae were stocked on 0 days posthatch (DPH) following hatching of the fertilized embryos. Larval total length (TL), survival rates, and final densities were observed on larval settlement (32 DPH) to evaluate larval rearing performance. At 32 DPH, there were no significant differences (p > .05) in TL or survival rates between the LD (46.5 ± 17.0%) and HD+ (40.3 ± 9.4%). The TL and survival rate of HD (23.1 ± 3.5%) were significantly lower than that of LD and HD+ (p < .05). However, the larval density of HD was significantly higher than that of LD (p < .05). HD+ achieved the best larvae production (32.27 ± 7.51 larvae/L), supported by sufficient food source, high water exchange, and proper water quality management (routine siphoning, surface skimming). The larval‐rearing protocols and larval development from hatching to metamorphosis is described in detail, with corresponding photographs taken during the experiment.  相似文献

The shape of the lipid vesicle (the ratio between the maximal and the minimal diameter and the shape coefficient) of the eggs of Diplodus puntazzo and Sparus aurata is correlated with larval survival rate (%) and can be used as an egg quality marker as reported previously by Lahnsteiner and Patarnello (2005) . In the present study, this method for egg quality determination has also been validated for common dentex, Dentex dentex, after introducing several modifications in the calculation and evaluation procedure in order to obtain higher sensitivity. In the present study, it could be demonstrated that the shape of the lipid vesicle is not only correlated with the hatching rate but also with the survival rate of 1, 2 and 3 days post hatch larvae and therefore it can also be used as an indicator of larval viability at early stages of development.  相似文献

Development and design of adequate feeding protocols on sea cucumber larvae are necessary for improvements on larvae growth, survival and production of competent juveniles. This work assessed the Holothuria arguinensis larvae growth and survival, fed with three different single microalgae diets of Chaetoceros calcitrans, Isochrysis galbana and Tetraselmis chui, and two microalgae diets based on a combination of C. calcitrans and T. chuii (C:T; 1:1) and C. calcitrans, T. chuii and I. galbana (C:T:I; 1:1:1) during 2 months. Holothuria arguinensis larvae fed with T:C:I, showed higher survival and larger larval and stomach sizes than the ones fed with the other diets. Comparing the results obtained from the single diets, H. arguinensis larvae fed with I. galbana grew and survived better during the first 5 days. However, higher growth was obtained on the larvae fed with C. calcitrans from day 5 to day 12; since this day, larvae fed with T. chuii showed the largest size. These results could be related to the different microalgae size and morphology, in addition to the nutritional value of the different microalgae used. However, no competent larvae that metamorphosed into doliolaria were obtained during this experiment. The tanks used were transparent, which could be causing light stress to the larvae, since competent larvae were obtained in opaque production tanks in our aquaculture installations during the same time period. The combined diet of C. calcitrans, T. chuii and I. galbana (C:T:I) could improve the growth and larvae competency of H. arguinensis.  相似文献

Common dentex larvae were reared using two culturing techniques, mesocosms and intensive rearing, to determine the principal culture parameters involved in the differences observed in growth, skeletal deformations and survival between the two rearing techniques. In growth, only dry weight of larvae of 40 days post‐hatching (dph) from mesocosms was significantly higher than larvae from intensive rearing. Significant differences were observed in survival at 40 dph (6.58% in mesocosms and 1.58% in intensive rearing) and in the incidence of skeletal deformations, both for percentage of deformed larvae and for some deformation types such as those related to vertebral column and to the caudal complex. Initial larval density and initial prey density and quality are the factors suspected to affect growth and survival performance, while skeletal deformities might also be affected by tank hydrodynamics.  相似文献

There is a need to develop low-cost methods for larviculture that emphasize disease prevention. We evaluated stagnant water larviculture in flounder Paralichthys olivaceus using rotifer amictic eggs treated with glutaraldehyde. Growth and survival of the larvae were similar to in larvae reared by standard running water larviculture with daily feeding of rotifers (control). In the experimental group, the n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acid content of rotifers in the rearing water was higher than in the enriched rotifers fed to the control group. We also observed a similar pattern for the fatty acid composition of flounder larvae. The viable bacterial counts associated with rotifers in stagnant water were lower than those associated with enriched rotifers, and there were fewer bacterial genera. However, the viable bacterial count was the same or higher in the experimental rearing water compared with that in the control group. The α-Proteobacteria and Cytophaga–Flavobacterium–Bacteroidetes group dominated the bacterial community structure after larval hatching. To our knowledge, this is the first time that stagnant water larviculture, using only disinfected amictic eggs, has been successfully demonstrated on a mass production scale. This method appears to offer benefits including improved nutrition, more favorable bacterial communities, and lower cost.  相似文献

A series of rearing trials in small 1 L cones and large tanks of 30–100 L were carried out to develop optimal rearing techniques for mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) larvae. Using water exchange (discontinuous partial water renewal or continuous treatment through biofiltration) and micro‐algae (Chlorella or Chaetoceros) supplementation (daily supplementation at 0.1–0.2 million cells mL−1 or maintenance at 1–2 millions cells mL−1), six different types of rearing systems were tried. The combination of a green‐water batch system for early stages and a recirculating system with micro‐algae supplementation for later stages resulted in the best overall performance of the crab larvae. No clear effects of crab stocking density (50–200 larvae L−1) and rotifer (30–60 rotifers mL−1) and Artemia density (10–20 L−1) were observed. A stocking density of 100–150 zoea 1 (Z1) L−1, combined with rotifer of 30–45 mL−1 for early stages and Artemia feeding at 10–15 nauplii mL−1 for Z3–Z5 seemed to produce the best performance of S. paramamosain larvae. Optimal rations for crab larvae should, however, be adjusted depending on the species, larval stage, larval status, prey size, rearing system and techniques. A practical feeding schedule could be to increase live food density from 30 to 45 rotifers mL−1 from Z1 to Z2 and increase the number of Artemia nauplii mL−1 from 10 to 15 from Z3 to Z5. Bacterial disease remains one of the key factors underlying the high mortality in the zoea stages. Further research to develop safe prophylactic treatments is therefore warranted. Combined with proper live food enrichment techniques, application of these findings has sustained a survival rate from Z1 to crab 1–2 stages in large rearing tanks of 10–15% (maximum 30%).  相似文献

Pigfish (Orthopristis chrysoptera Linnaeus) are a commonly used baitfish in the southeastern United States. Aquaculture methods for broodfish spawning and juvenile grow‐out have been developed but there is still a paucity of information regarding larval culture methods. Five, short duration (10 days) experiments were conducted to determine effective strategies to yield high larval survival and growth during early development. Experiment one examined the rotifer enrichments Ori‐Green, DHA Protein Selco, and AlgaMac 3050 as well as a non‐enriched control along with corresponding fatty acid levels in the enriched rotifers and pigfish larvae. Experiment two evaluated three, once daily feeding frequencies of either 5, 10 or 20 rotifers mL?1. Experiment three compared feeding 20 rotifers mL?1 once daily to feeding 5 rotifers mL?1 twice daily. Experiment four examined four different larval stocking densities: 50, 75, 100, or 125 larvae L?1. Experiment five examined green water strategies using either live Tahitian strain Isochrysis galbana (Parke) or Nannochloropsis oculata (Hibberd) paste at either 250 000 or 500 000 cells mL?1 as well as a clear water control. Results indicated rotifer enrichment with DHA Protein Selco and green water application using live T‐ISO at 500 000 cells mL?1 had the highest survival of pigfish during early stages of larval culture. A once daily rotifer feeding regime of 20 rotifers mL?1 and stocking density of 50 larvae L?1 also improved survival. These results provide producers with methods to improve efficiency for pigfish larval culture and provide researchers with new foundational data, such as potential fatty acid requirements.  相似文献

Ceramic clay has been increasingly used to improve contrast and prey detection in tanks for rearing of fish larvae. In contrast to live microalgae or algae pastes, clay increases turbidity without contributing to the organic matter load. In addition, clay may aggregate and sediment organic matter and bacteria, facilitating its removal. Marine larvae are sensitive to infections by opportunistic bacteria. Fish, algae, and live feed increase the microbial carrying capacity of the rearing water which allow exponential growth of bacteria and favor fast-growing opportunists. Reducing substrate levels by replacing microalgae with clay may reduce bacteria proliferation and benefit larvae. We compared the effects of three rearing regimes including live Isochrysis galbana, Nannochloropsis oculata paste, and ceramic clay on the bacterial community, concentration of organic matter, and growth and survival of Atlantic cod larvae (Gadus morhua L.). The application of clay resulted in reduced substrate levels for bacteria in the rearing water compared to the addition of live algae or algae paste. To some extent, clay aggregated and transported organic matter to the bottom of the larval fish tanks, where it could be effectively removed. Fish tanks receiving clay showed a lower abundance of bacteria in the water than tanks added algae paste or live algae. Fish tanks with algae paste showed a higher abundance of bacteria and a higher share of cultivable bacteria and TCBS counts than the other two treatments. Tanks with live algae showed low relative abundances of opportunistic bacteria and TCBS counts in both water and rotifers. Cod larvae in tanks with clay or live algae initiated exponential growth earlier than larvae in tanks with algae paste. Larvae in tanks receiving clay had significantly higher dry weight than larvae in tanks receiving algae paste at day 5 and 20 post hatching. The survival of larvae in the tanks added clay was variable. Two of the three tanks with clay had significantly higher larval survival than the tanks with live algae or algae paste. However, one tank with clay underwent 100% mortality. It is not possible to conclude whether this was related to the use of clay or an incidental development of a harmful microbial community in this tank. The effects of clay addition on larval performance should be studied further. Clay addition appears to be an easy way to reduce bacterial load during early first feeding of marine larvae without compromising the beneficial effects of turbidity.  相似文献

The pullet carpet shell Venerupis corrugata is an economically valuable species in several European countries, however, nowadays stocks are under high fishing pressure. Hatchery production of juveniles for release is a major contributor to strengthen the stock and consequently improve the sustainability of the natural stocks. This study aimed to determine the feasibility of rearing V. corrugata larvae with different larval densities (10, 40 and 200 larvae per mL) in a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS), compared with the traditional larval rearing methodology (Batch). The mean survival, growth and metamorphic rate of V. corrugata larvae in RAS was higher (11.1%; 71.3 μm; 21.6% respectively) than in the Batch system, in all tested densities. The larval growth was not affected by the initial density until 40 larvae per mL, however, 200 larvae per mL decreased the larval growth in length nearly 54 μm. The larval rearing time was shortened in 2 days in the RAS system. The physical, chemical and microbiologic parameters suggested that the tested densities were not excessive to disturb the biofilter stability of RAS. The V. corrugata larval rearing performed at high larval stocking densities in RAS system present a reduction in the operating costs to produce this species.  相似文献

The influence of algal diet on survival, growth and development of hatchery reared flat oyster, Ostrea angasi, larvae was investigated in a series of uni, binary and ternary algal diet trials. Early stage larvae (140–230 μm shell length) generally grew faster than late‐stage larvae (230–340 μm shell length) when fed unialgal diets. Of the 24 algal diets evaluated, larvae fed unialgal diets of Isochrysis sp. (T. Iso), Nannochloropsis oculata, Tetraselmis chuii or Pavlova lutheri; a binary diet of T. chuii+T. Iso; or ternary diets of T. chuii+T. Iso combined with P. lutheri or N. oculata had the greatest larval growth, survival, development and metamorphosis, in the respective trials. The correlation between growth rate and spat produced in late‐stage larvae was stronger when fed unialgal diets (r = 0.75) than when larvae were fed either binary or ternary diets (r = 0.44 and r = 0.45 respectively). Marked differences in proportion of spat produced (24 h post metamorphosis) were evident among diets producing similar growth rates. For hatchery production of O. angasi larvae, ternary diets of T. chuii+T. Iso combined with either P. lutheri or N. oculata were the best diets to maximize larval growth rate, development and survival 24 h post metamorphosis.  相似文献

The consolidation of meagre (Argyrosomus regius) in aquaculture requires an understanding and optimization of larval rearing and nutritional conditions. The aim of this study was to analyse the effects of an early introduction of inert diets during larval rearing, on growth performance, digestive enzymes activity and development of skeletal anomalies. This study evaluated the effects of three different timings for the introduction of inert diet during larval rearing: a control group (CTRL) where inert diet was initiated at 14 days after hatching (DAH) and two treatment groups that had an earlier introduction of inert diet at 8 DAH (T1) and 11 DAH (T2). Meagre larvae exhibited similar pancreatic and intestinal enzymatic activities among the different dietary treatments. No differences in the overall prevalence of anomalies were observed between treatments at 25 or 50 DAH, however, a significant reduction was observed in all groups with the transition from larval to juvenile stage. The precocious introduction of inert diet shifted the distribution of vertebral anomalies to a more anterior vertebral column region. Altogether, this study shows that earlier introduction of inert diets in meagre hatcheries can be beneficial for meagre production in aquaculture.  相似文献

Oily emulsions containing constant levels of total fatty acids (FAs) and varying eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and arachidonic acid (ARA) levels were used to enrich rotifers. Common dentex larval survival and growth were compared between groups fed different enriched live prey. Growth, survival rate, and lipid composition of larvae suggest that feeding common dentex in the first 15 days posthatching with 2.5–3% EPA, 6–8% docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and DHA/EPA ratio of 2.0–2.5 is sufficient to fulfill their EPA requirements. Higher amounts of dietary EPA did not result in any significant improvement in growth or survival. EPA requirement during this period of larval development does not seem to be as critical as other FAs during the first 15 days of common dentex larval development, but it does not exclude its essentiality later in development. In the case of ARA, nutritional requirements are low compared to other marine finfish species, with the upper limit of this essential FA being around 2% of total FAs provided in the live prey composition.  相似文献

Bacterial nutrition of great scallop, Pecten moximus, larvae was investigated using the radioactive tracer technique. The bacterial labelling was studied initially to obtain a high and stable specific radioactivity (14C) of bacterial cells. A higher bacterial specific 14C activity was obtained when the tracer (amino acid) was introduced in the culture medium at the beginning of the exponential growth phase. After a 12 h labelling period in a rich nutritive medium, the bacteria were depurated in seawater for 5 h (chase) to prevent further 14C excretion and then added to larval rearing vessels. The larval labelling was followed for 12 h and then larvae were placed in new vessels without radioactive bacteria. The depuration of larvae was followed for 3 days. Data obtained on ingestion and assimilation efficiency show that bivalve larvae are able to ingest and digest bacteria.  相似文献

Total lipids, lipid classes and their associated fatty acids were measured in developing eggs, yolksac larvae and starving larvae (from fertilized egg to day 9 after hatch) of the common dentex Dentex dentex (L., 1758). The larvae of common dentex during lecitotrophia and subsequent starvation consumed 1.6 g of total lipid per larvae per day. The overall decrease was mainly due to utilization of the major neutral lipids, TAG and SE (0.5 and 0.6 g larvae–1 day–1, respectively) which was 3.4-fold greater than that of the the major phosphoglycerides (primarily PC by 0.2 g larvae–1 day–1). There was net synthesis/conservation of PE during the first half of the study period before it decreased rapidly (0.2 g larvae–1 day–1) during the second half. PUFAs were principally catabolized (468.6 ng larvae–1 day–1), primarily 22:6(n-3), 20:5(n-3) and 20:4(n-6) (221.8, 58.5 and 12.1 ng larvae–1 day–1, respectively). Saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids were also utilized (227.2 and 256.7 ng larvae–1 day–1, respectively), principally 16:0 and 18:1(n-9) that were both consumed at 149.8 and 156.7 ng larvae–1 day–1, respectively. The rank order of utilization of fatty acids (ng larvae–1 day–1) by D. dentex larvae from total lipids, PC and TAG coincided with the order of abundance of the different fatty acids in the respective lipid fractions. However, in PE, the most abundant fatty acid, DHA, was relatively conserved and 16:0, the second most abundant fatty acid, was catabolized to the greatest extent. D. dentex showed a pattern of lipid metabolism during early development similar to that of marine larval fish from temperate waters whose eggs contain high levels of total lipids, including an oil globule, and which preferentially utilize neutral lipids as the primary energy source.  相似文献
