Abstract

The feed value of two cladocerans Moina macrocopa and Diaphanosoma celebensis for prawn, Penaeus japonicus was compared with Artemia. Fatty acid profile revealed that the fortification with chlorella V12 greatly enhanced raised eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acid levels of both cladocerans. Prawn, Penaeus japonicus (postlarva-stage) was fed fortified M. macrocopa, D. celebensis and Artemia larvae as a control for 30 days. The body length of prawn fed cladocerans was significantly longer than that fed Artemia. Survival rate was higher in prawn fed D. celebensis than others. Fatty acid composition of the prawn larvae changed in response to the fatty acid profile of feeds. These results implied that cladoceran D. celebensis can be a suitable live feed other than Artemia for inducing mass seeding production of prawn.
