Fig. 1. Growth (A) and survival (B) of Paralichthys olivaceus larvae fed different diets (C, copepod 100%; CR, copepod 50% + rotifer 50%; R, rotifer 100%) on 12 DAH (days after hatching). Different letters indicate a significant difference (P<0.05).
Fig. 2. Growth of Paralichthys olivaceus larvae fed different diets on 30 DAH (days after hatching) [C, copepod 100%; CA, copepod 50% + Artemia nauplius 50%; A, Artemia nauplius 100%; CA5, fed C from 14 DAH to 18 DAH and then A from 19 DAH] from 14 DAH to 30 DAH at Artemia nauplius feeding stage. Different letters indicate a significant difference (P<0.05).
Fig. 3. n-3 HUFA contents (% dry weight) of food organisms fed to Paralichthys olivaceus larvae. Rotifer and Artemia were enriched with A1 Super Selco®.Copepod nauplii and adults were enriched with Tetraselmis suecica.
