Effect of copepod hydrolysate dietary inclusion on feed attractiveness for Pacific white shrimp
A novel protein hydrolysate from the zooplanktonic copepod Calanus finmarchicus can increase the attractiveness of Litopenaeus vannamei diets.

Advances in intensive copepod production technology
Research at the Oceanic Institute has been successful in overcoming bottlenecks associated with rearing small-mouthed fish larvae by finding a suitable first feed. Early work on the calanoid copepod Parvocalanus crassirostris focused on parameters necessary for successful maintenance of stock cultures.
