Abstract
Juveniles of Kuruma prawn, Penaeus japonicus, were fed dry pellet (treatment 1) and minced short-neck clam (treatment 2) separately in a closed culture system to examine the effects of food quality on growth and the environment. Growth of prawn was 121 % and 204 %, respectively in treatments 1 and 2 during the experimental period of 43 days. The food conversion ratio was higher in treatment 1 than in treatment 2. On the final day, total N concentration in the culture medium in treatment 1 was lower than in treatment 2 whereas total P concentration was inverse. N/P ratio was calculated to be 6.1 and 21.7 in treatments 1 and 2, respectively. In the case of organic sediment content, treatment 1 was higher than treatment 2. Nannochloropsis sp. density in the examination of algal growth potential of prawn culture water was higher in treatment 1 than in treatment 2 throughout the experimental period. The highest density of 43.43 × 106 Nannochloropsi sp. cells/ml was obtained with the prawn culture water taken at the 4th week. On the other hand, Chaetoceros calcitrans reached a lower density, 11.63 × 106 cells/ml at the maximum, showing little difference between treatments 1 and 2.
