Manipulated yeast diets and dried algae as a partial substitute for live algae in the juvenile rearing of the Manila clam Tapes philippinarum and the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas
The development of a cost-effective artificial diet would greatly reduce the operating costs and improve the efficiency of bivalve seed production. The present study documents the use of a manipulated yeast diet and dried algae ( Tetraselmis suecica, Cyclotella cryptica ) as an 80% substitute for li...

The development of a cost-effective artificial diet would greatly reduce the operating costs and improve the efficiency of bivalve seed production. The present study documents the use of a manipulated yeast diet and dried algae ( Tetraselmis suecica, Cyclotella cryptica ) as an 80% substitute for live algae under the conditions of a commercial bivalve hatchery. Juveniles of the Manila clam T. philippinarum and of the Pacific oyster C. gigas were grown in a 28l recirculating system for three weeks. In addition, a preliminary flow-through culture test was performed with C. gigas . Supplementing manipulated yeasts improved the growth rate of juvenile clams and oysters fed 20% of the algal ration from 30-40% to 70-80% of that observed for the algae-fed controls over a period of 3 weeks.
