Rotifers are widely used as a live prey for finfish larvae, although their content in minerals such selenium and zinc is lower than fish. In the present study, mixed microalgae (i.e., Isochrysis aff. galbana Nannochloropsis oculata) were enriched with different amounts of Se Zn either alone (45, 90, 135 mg L−1 Zn, 60, 120, 180 Se) or (22.5, 45, 90 30, 120 L−1). The was analysed after 1 3 h enri...

This study was performed to compare the efficiency of six microalgae namely Dunaliella tertiolecta, Tetraselmis suecica, Nannochloropsis oculata, Chaetoceros sp < em>., Chlorella sp. and Spirolina sp < em>. on the growth, survival rate and reproduction efficacy in Artemia urmiana in laboratory conditions. Artemia cysts were harvested from Urmia Lake and hatched according to the standard method....
