What is it about?

The effects of an artificial commercial feed supplementation on larval rearing and crablet production of mud crab Scylla tranquebarica. In mass production of mud crab seeds, only rotifer and Artemia nauplii are usually fed to mud crab larvae rearing until the larvae develop to crablet stage. The supplementation of artificial commercial feed from zoea-3 stage is expected to supply an essential nutrient required for an optimum larval development. T

Why is it important?

As an effort to improve mud crab seed production in hatchery

Perspectives

Low number of mud crab seed production in hatchery caused by low feed quality, by added artificial feed therefore, some important nutrien requirement for the larvae will supplied by artificial feed.
