Abstract

Water quality for aquaculturists refers to the quality of water that enables successful propagation of the desired organisms. Treated seawater enriched with nutrients, like nitrates, phosphates, essential trace elements, vitamins and carbon dioxide is a prerequisite for any successful microalgae and other live feed culture. High microalgae biomass with less contamination is important to support the growth of finfish and shellfish larvae. In this context water quality requirements and its management in different live feed culture systems plays a vital role in enhancing the survival, growth and production of cultivable animals.
