For that reason, the\nuse of decapsulated Artemia cysts is considered a good alternative to artemia nauplii\nand hence it has been\nwidely used for the larval rearing of several species including African catfish\nespecially under intensive culture conditions. The decapsulated cysts are completely digestible by the fish or shrimp\nlarvae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The decapsulation procedure is carried out by chemically removing or\noxidizing the outer chorion of the cyst using hypochloride solution. \n\nThe\ncysts used in direct feeding are produced through specific processes that do\nnot consider hatching process. It is believed that the decapsulated cysts have\na higher energy and nutritional value compared to live Artemia nauplii having\nin consideration that zero energy is consumed in the hatching process.\nSimilarly, lipids, amino acids, and enzymes are left intact. The nutritional merit of the dried artemia cysts can be enhanced through its\nenriching with vitamin C.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mL4dzeeVc3M?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video was filmed in a Kenyan fish farm where different aquaculture activities on several species are taking place including tilapia, catfish, and ornamental fish.
