Effects of feeding highly unsaturated fatty acid (HUFA), vitamins E and C enriched Artemia fransiscana nauplii on growth, survival and stress resistance of yellowfin seabream, A. latus were investigated. Larvae at first exogenous feeding with 53 ± 5 mg body weight were fed with HUFA+5%, 10% and 15% vitamin C-enriched Artemiai (C1, C2 and C3 groups, respectively), HUFA+5% and 10% vitamin E-enriched Artemia (E1 and E2 groups, respectively), HUFA+2.5% (W/W) vitamin C and E enriched Artemia (CE2 group), HUFA+5% (W/W) vitamin C and E-enriched Artemia (CE1 group), HUFA without vitamin (HUFA group) and non-enriched Artemia (control) in 3 replicates. Enriched Artemia feeding for all treatments was initialized on day 17 and finished on day 23 post hatch. After the period of enrichment, the larvae were fed with Coppens diet from day 23 to 36 and then, the sampling was do.. View More»
