Abstract

constituted 22.3% of the total fatty acids, due to the presence of DHA which formed 8.0% of the total fatty acids, while ARA and EPA were absent. The results show that B. plicatilis and newly hatched Artemia enriched with T. chuii grown on was effective for good growth and survival rate of S. aurata larvae.
