Aquaculture is expanding worldwide; however, culture protocols remain limited to a small number of species. Prochilodus lineatus, the most heavily harvested fish in Argentine rivers, is currently threatened by overexploitation, while Australoheros facetus is an environmental bioindicator also used in the aquarium trade...
Overall, Tigriopus should be regarded as a genus of growing relevance for aquaculture, not only as live prey but also as a potential source of functional biomass.
Sea cucumbers are ecologically important marine invertebrates that play key roles in nutrient recycling and are highly valued in Asian gastronomy, traditional medicine, and as a source of bioactive compounds. Increasing market demand has led to severe impacts on natural populations through overfishing and illegal harve...
The purpose of this study was to raise juvenile Bocachico (Prochilodus reticulatus) from the Catatumbo River under laboratory conditions, based on a high and low density of individuals/m3 and two inclusions of crude protein in the daily ration to monitor weight gain, feed conversion ratio, specific growth rate, and sur...
Pomacea figulina is a neotropical freshwater gastropod that has emerged as a promising native biomonitor due to its ecological characteristics and sensitivity to environmental contaminants. However, the lack of standardized laboratory rearing protocols limits its use in ecotoxicological bioassays and environmental moni...
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of including flour from the seaweed, Schizochytrium sp. in the feed provided to dusk grouper and evaluate its effects on the zootechnical performance of the species kept in a recirculation system. Dusky juveniles acquired from a commercial laboratory of marine fish fingerlings w...
