Nutrition is particularly important in the healthy development offish during their early-life stages. Understanding the uniquenutritional needs of larval fish can improve the efficiency andquality of fish reared in a culture setting. Larval FishNutrition comprehensively explores the nutritionalrequirements, developmental physiology, and feeding and weaningstrategies that will allow aquaculture researchers andprofessionals to develop and implement improved culture practices. Larval Fish Nutrition is logically divided into threesections. The first section looks at the role of specific nutrientrequirements in the healthy digestive development of fish. Thesecond section looks at the impacts if nutritional physiology onfish through several early-life stages. The final section looks atfeeding behaviors and the benefits and drawbacks to both live feedand microparticulate diets in developing fish.Written by a team of leading global researchers, Larval FishNutrition will be an indispensible resource for aquacultureresearchers, professionals, and advanced students.Key Features:Reviews the latest research on larval fish nutritionalrequirements, developmental physiology, and feeding and weaningstrategiesExtensively covers nutritional needs of various early-lifestages in fish developmentWeighs the benefits and drawbacks to both live feeds andmicroparticulate dietsWritten by a global team of experts in fish nutrition andphysiology
