“…Microalgae might be used as indirect contributors to performances through improvement of water quality, live feed for larvae and reduction of stress (Abdelwahab 2023;Ballesteros-Redondo et al, 2023). Firstly, improving water quality can be achieved through microalgae, which work as natural bio-filters by removing excess nutrients and harmful bacteria (Amira et al, 2021).…”

“…Some microalgae species can serve as excellent substitutes for traditional live feed, ensuring proper nutrition and survival for young fish. Finfish larviculture requires a diet rich in fatty acid profiles including omega-3 fatty acids and docosahexaenoic acid (Ballesteros-Redondo et al, 2023). The significance of microalgae to consume CO 2 has been reported (Olabi et al, 2022).…”

Background: Dietary microalgae inclusion in small or large amounts to fish species is considered one of the sources for improving nutritional values and productive performances throughout the world. Methods: The microalgae are classified through light and electron microscopes into four groups: blue-green, green, golden and diatoms algae. The microalgae can be cultured in the laboratory under controlled conditions. Hence, the grown microalgae biochemical analysis of pigments, proteins and carbohydrates were differed over controlled conditions. Moreover, molecular biology concerning genes and genomes enabled to study ecology, evolution and physiology of microalgae. The fascinating field of microalgae genetic engineering was applied to produce invaluable microalgae compounds as omega-3 fatty acids. The microalgae and their purified compounds were used as direct nutritional sources or as indirect contributors through improvement of water quality and reduction of stress. Result: The chemical composition of microalgae differed depending on nutrient availability for production and microalgae species. The microalgae invaluable compounds include “proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, polyunsaturated fatty acids, pigments, vitamins and other bioactive constituents”. The dietary microalgae and their purified compounds have been shown to provide beneficial effects in growth performance and body health. The roles of microalgae and their constituents as antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral and anti-tumour materials have been well-established versus challenging problems. In this context, this review is designed to compile and discuss the advantages and disadvantages effects of microalgae on feed utilization, reproductive and therapeutic performances in fish.

Alternative live feeds for small and sensitive fish early life stages such as pikeperch (Sander lucioperca L., 1758) can improve the larval quantity, quality and performance in aquaculture. Therefore, this study evaluated the cyclopoid copepod Apocyclops panamensis (Marsh, 1913) as live feed for pikeperch larviculture from day 11 post hatch (dph) in two independent experiments. In both experiments, pikeperch larvae had the highest specific growth rate (SGR) when they fed on Brachionus plicatilis until dph 11 and A. panamensis until dph 16–18. SGR was related to a decrease in total fatty acids (FAs), saturated FAs and monounsaturated FAs in pikeperch larvae, indicating their use as energy for growth. Within the polyunsaturated FAs, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) increased in larvae fed with A. panamensis and coincided with the highest SGR suggesting that DHA is accumulated in larvae as structural FA. Our study demonstrated a suitable pikeperch larval fatty acid composition for growth after feeding A. panamensis compared with Artemia sp. from dph 11 until dph 16 and previously fed with B. plicatilis. Moreover, it highlighted the importance of the dietary PUFAs in pikeperch rearing, specifically of linoleic acid (LA) from dph 4 until dph 11 and of DHA from dph 11 onwards.
