Abstract

There is need to develop grow out diets for juveniles of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus allowing a reduction of hatchery time. In this study the increase in size and weight of juvenile P. lividus was measured after feeding them with 4 specifically designed diets, 2 commercial diets and a control based on the brown macroalga Laminaria sp. The experimental diets were prepared with tuna (HA) or insect flour (HI), using pork gelatin (HA-G, 31.3% protein; HI-G. 31.6%) or Agar (HA-A, 21.8%; HI-A, 21,6%) as gelling agent; commercial diets H had 21.8% protein, N 20.95% and the macroalga 8.2%. Four replicates with 40 juvenile sea urchins were used per treatment, with average initial diameter and weight of 4.8 mm and 0.06 g, respectively. The experiment lasted 6 month and diets were provided ad libitum three days per week; water was exchanged 18 times/day; photoperiod 12 L: 12 D, oxygen saturation maintained at 8 - 10 mg/L and pH at 8 - 8.5. Significant differences were found in diameter and weight increase among treatments, with largest increase in size and weight with diet HA-A 21.4±2.1 mm (an increase of 128%) and 4.4±1.3 g, followed by HA-G> HI-G = HI-A> CTrl > H = N. Final size in control diet was 16.6±1.6 mm and 2.4±0.8 g. The time needed to produce juveniles suitable for restocking (20 mm in diameter) after feeding the juvenile sea urchins with HA-A diet, could be reduced by more than 35% according to calculations made with the linear growth rate data.
