Abstract

Three di¡erent life stages of spiny lobster larvae (phyllosoma) of Panulirus homarus were fed A1-Selco- enriched Artemia in two culture treatments, one with the microalgae Nannochloropsis salina (green water) and the other without the microalgae (clear water) to assess the ability to manipulate their fatty acid composition. Phyllosoma fed with 3-h A1- Selco-enriched Artemia salina attained Stage VIII (5.3mm) and StageV (3.4mm) in 42 days in the green and clear water treatments respectively. The higher content of the essential fatty acids in N. salina (eicosapentaenoic acid, 25.8%; arachidonic acid, 9.5%; and docosahexaenoic acid, 4.2%) in the green water system increased the fatty acid content of the live food Artemia, and ultimately the phyllosoma.
