Abstract | A batch system with subgravel filter for stock-culture maintenance of Mysidopsis bahia in artificial sea water is described. The feeding of mysids on Artemia is optimized through the cyclic pumping of brine shrimp instar I nauplii from a refrigerator to the stock-cultures. An easily constructed incubator-separator apparatus is described for the standardized harvesting of mysid juveniles to be used as test organisms. |
