Abstract | A modified filter system is described for the intensive culturing of Artemia in a continuously renewed medium. Extrapolated to a 1 m³ tank, 25 kg live weight Artemia could be produced over a culture period of two weeks on a diet of micronized and defatted rice bran using the salt enriched effluent of an abandoned geothermal well as a culture medium. |
