빵 이스트를 먹이로 이용한 부유성 코페포다 Apocyclops sp.(Copepod: Cyclopoida)의 배양

The Culture of free-swiming Copepod Secies Apocyclops sp. (Copepod; Cyclopoida)by baking Yeast

Copepod is useful live food organism in the larval rearing. However of fin fish, culcures of copepod species (Specially calanoida and cyclopoida) were very difficult under artificial management conditions. In this study, we report successful culture of a free swimming cyclopodia copepod species (Apocyclops sp.) by easily baker's yeast as food. The maximum culture density of Apocyclops sp. was observed 11,200±2,660 ind/ℓ during the 30 days culture periods in the 1.5ℓ culture tanks. The nauplii were growth up maximum density 6,400±432 ind/ℓ on day 16th. The number of egg carring female was observed maximum density (666.7 ind./ℓ) of two times after 6days and 28 days of initial culture.
