Can brown mussel meal in feed promote growth and cold resistance of Pacific white shrimp?
Brown mussel meal at inclusion levels of 1.73–2 percent is a potential additive in L. vannamei shrimp diets to promote growth and reduce FCR.
Health & Welfare
For the best growth and highest level of in vivo antioxidant activity, the optimal level of the grape extract Nor-grape 80 is 250–500 ppm.

Brown mussel meal at inclusion levels of 1.73–2 percent is a potential additive in L. vannamei shrimp diets to promote growth and reduce FCR.
Health & Welfare
A microencapsulated probiotic supported beneficial strains of Bacillus and reduced harmful Vibrios, showing the potential to modulate shrimp gut microbiota.
Health & Welfare
Feeding HUFA-enriched artemia to L. vannamei for 12 days significantly increases highly unsaturated fatty acid content in the shrimp postlarvae.
Health & Welfare
Dietary, health-promoting additives may address some larviculture issues and support the downstream production of high-quality L. vannamei.
Health & Welfare
A model for waterborne transmission of WSSV in shrimp explains virus dynamics, interactions during outbreaks and the spread of White Spot Disease.
Intelligence
Integrated biofloc culture of Pacific white shrimp, Nile tilapia and U. lactuca is feasible with shallow floats up to 10 cm in depth.
Health & Welfare
Including a commercial nucleotide in L. vannamei diets improved growth, survival, immune response, resistance to AHPND and profitability.
Aquafeeds
The feed additive outperformed a control diet – with larger animals and 25 percent greater survival – as well as a benchmark commercial feed.
Health & Welfare
A commercial montmorillonite clay may help protect L. vannamei against production and economic losses from AHPND outbreaks in shrimp farms.
Health & Welfare
Shrimp diets supplemented with phytobiotics and applied at critical periods could mitigate the impact of AHPND and other pathologies.
Aquafeeds
Growth and feed utilization of L. vannamei improved when brown shrimp processing remains were included in higher proportions than fishmeal.
Innovation & Investment
Homegrown Shrimp USA opened its first shrimp RAS facility in the United States in a rural community in the heart of southern Florida.
Aquafeeds
In a digestibility trial, novel protein sources like single-cell proteins showed the greatest potential for Pacific white shrimp diets.
Health & Welfare
Sponge biocarriers can maintain low levels of ammonia, nitrite and suspended solids for white shrimp in zero-water-exchange production systems.
Health & Welfare
The bacterial flora composition of shrimp from greenhouses and aquaponics reflected prevailing biological sludge vs. autotrophic biological processes.
