An Evaluation of Six Alternative Compounded Diets for Juvenile European Lobsters (homarus gammerus L)

Summary

The high cost of feeding juvenile lobsters at Ardtoe on natural food leads to trials of proprietary palletised foods developed for other fish which can be dispersed automatically. Batches of juveniles have been fed on various palletised foods and monitored for growth and mortality and compared with a control sample fed on natural fresh food.
