Additional supply of decapsulated Artemia cysts for various periods in intensive rearing of juvenile crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus, Astacidae)

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
The additional supply of live feeds such as Artemia remains indispensable in juvenile astacid rearing from the start of independent life. Considering that cost and work could be reduced by restricting this supply, a 100-day experiment was carried out ...
