The culture of copepods as live food for marine fish larvae ...
The diversification of marine finfish aquaculture has identified a requirement for live foods other than the traditional rotifer and brine shrimp species. As copepods constitute a natural component of the diets of larval fish, three species were isolated and their life cycle, environmental tolerance...

The diversification of marine finfish aquaculture has identified a requirement for live foods other than the traditional rotifer and brine shrimp species.
