Effects of culture condition towards fatty acids in a harpacticoid copepod; Amphiascoides neglectus (Lang, 1965)

Copepods have been found as one of the best live feed in aquaculture. This study was carried out to determine the development time, growth performance and fatty acid content of a marine copepod, Amphiascoides neglectus, potentially become live feed for marine larval rearing.

The laboratory experiments were designed to expose the population of A. neglectus to different sets of temperature, pH and salinity treatment.
