Abstract

Studies on the effect of different cell densities of a local strain of marine Chlorella sp. and C. capsulata on the production dynamics and fatty acid content of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis show that rotifer production depends on algal cell density and quality of the species used in the culture system. The fatty acid content in algae produced using a thin-layer culture system is described. Also, the nutritional quality of algae-fed rotifers for aquaculture is discussed.
