Stress Nutrition in Aquatic Animals: From Definition to Practice

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture faces numerous challenges, with stress being one of the major issues that lead to growth loss, metabolic disorders, weakened immunity, redox imbalance, and organ damage in aquatic animals. Nutritional intervention is one of the effective strategies to address these problems. Traditional research has primarily focused on the impacts

Effects of Dietary Calcium and Magnesium Levels on the Growth Performance, Tissue Mineral Deposition, Exoskeleton Development, and Molting Performance of Chinese Mitten Crab (Eriocheir sinensis)

open access: yesAquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Calcium and magnesium are essential mineral elements for animal growth and development, playing crucial roles in skeletal formation, particularly in the molting process of crustaceans. However, their interaction is still poorly elucidated. This study investigated the effects of dietary calcium and magnesium levels on the growth performance, tissue ...

Artificial Incubation and Juvenile Cultivation Strategies for Cherax quadricarinatus: Microbial Dynamics and Greenhouse Pond Optimization

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To address key issues in the breeding and aquaculture of Cherax quadricarinatus, two experiments were conducted based on existing research. The first experiment investigated the effects of four disinfection methods on the microbial community and diversity indices on the surface of isolated embryos, with three replicates per group. Previous studies were

Effects of Prawn Shell Meal Diets on Hemocyte Count, Hemolymph Clotting, and Sperm Quality of the Freshwater Prawn Macrobrachium caementarius

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Crustacean shells are composed of chitin, which is bound to protein and minerals, along with other essential nutrients. These components are necessary for growth, immune response, the formation of reproductive structures, and the enhancement of sperm quality.

Dietary Pectin Supplementation as a Potential Strategy to Mitigate the Toxic Effects of Microplastics and Cadmium in Freshwater Crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus)

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study investigated the effects of cadmium (Cd), microplastics (MPs), and pectin (Pec) supplementation on biochemical, oxidative, and immunological parameters in crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus). Four hundred fifty crayfish were acclimatized under controlled laboratory conditions and distributed into 15 experimental groups using a definitive ...
