LIVE FEEDS & ZOOPLANKTON RESEARCH
Our work examines the culture, nutritional regulation, and aquaculture applications of rotifers, copepods, cladocerans, and their microalgal food sources.
01 / CORE GROUPS
These group-level research and learning entries do not imply that all members share the same ecology or culture needs.
Rotifera
Rotifers are a commonly used live-feed group in some aquaculture larval-rearing and research settings. Body size, reproduction, and culture traits vary among taxa and strains.
Copepoda
Copepods include calanoid, harpacticoid, cyclopoid, and other ecological types. Their life histories, feeding modes, and culture needs vary substantially and cannot be represented by one method.
Cladocera
Cladocerans are important in freshwater zooplankton communities and laboratory culture. They can support research in aquatic nutrition, ecotoxicology, or culture regulation, depending on the taxon and study design.
02 / MICROALGAE → ZOOPLANKTON → APPLICATION
This relationship organizes research questions; it is not a fixed food chain shared by every species.
03 / RESEARCH TOPICS
These are research topics of interest, not claims of completed or confirmed results.
Examines frameworks for population condition, culture stability, and continuity of supply without implying an achieved production scale.
Compares how defined culture organisms and life stages respond to microalgal diets and diet combinations.
Studies relationships among diet source, enrichment processes, record keeping, and nutritional quality.
Focuses on reproduction, growth, and population change across groups and developmental stages.
Develops observation and record frameworks for water quality, culture conditions, microbial state, and signs of abnormality.
Evaluates feeding compatibility and application boundaries for defined larvae and developmental stages.
