Abstract
Nannochloropsis oculata is a marine micro algae (Eustigmatophyte) playing an important role in seed production of marine finfishes. It is a small sized algae (2- 5ìm) having fast multiplication rate and rich in Chlorophyll a, Astaxanthin, Zeaxanthin, and Canthaxanthin. The algae are used directly and indirectly in marine finfish hatchery for green water larval rearing system and rotifer culture, respectively. Intermediate cultured algae are mainly used in larval rearing and mass cultured algae are used for live zooplankton (rotifer) culture. Nannochloropsis oculata, being a temperate species, mass production of microalgae in outdoor culture systems is difficult during the summer months, but larval rearing for most of the marine finfishes are at the peak during this period. Difficulties in algal culture during summer months are one of the bottlenecks in the year-round marine finfish larval production.
