However, some ornamental species are not easy (or even impossible) to feed with pelleted aquafeeds ( Olivotto et al., 2017). As they develop into adults, the need for live feed decreases as they start to successfully accept inert diets or formulated feed ( Hill, Pernetta & Crooks, 2020). Most larvae are visual feeders adapted to attack moving prey and, especially for altricial larvae, their digestive system is still rudimentary with limited digestive capacities ( Conceição et al., 2010). Live food organisms are commonly used for the early rearing of fish and invertebrates, especially the larval stages ( Southgate, 2019). hawaiensis could become a specialty feed for species that cannot easily transition to a formulated diet such as seahorses and other highly priced marine ornamental species. With an observed productivity rate of 0.36 ± 0.08 juveniles per amphipod couple per day, P. hawaiensis could be their quite long generation times (50.9 ± 5.8 days) and relatively low fecundity levels (12.8 ± 5.7 embryos per female). hawaiensis juvenile growth showed a small, but significant, reduction by the use of a plant-based diet compared to a commercial shrimp and fish diet however, fecundity was not affected, supporting the possible use of inexpensive diets to mass produce amphipods as live or frozen food. pectenicrus (7.9 ± 1.2 mm total length 8.4 ± 4.3 mg wet weight 5.7 ± 3.2 mg dry weight 1.34 females/males sex ratio 6.5 ± 3.9 embryos per female 12.86 ± 0.82 kJ g −1 gross energy content). hawaiensis showed a higher total length (9.3 ± 1.3 mm), wet weight (14.4 ± 6.2 mg), dry weight (10.5 ± 4.4 mg), females/males sex ratio (2.24), fecundity (12.8 ± 5.7 embryos per female), and gross energy content (16.71 ± 0.67 kJ g-1) compared to E. pectenicrus, was easily maintained and propagated in laboratory conditions.

For that purpose, aspects of the population and reproductive biology of the species were characterized and then a series of laboratory-scale experiments were conducted to determine amphipod productivity, the time needed to reach sexual maturity by hatchlings (generation time), cannibalism degree, the effects of sex ratio on fecundity and the effects of diet (shrimp diet, plant-based diet and commercial fish diet) on fecundity and juvenile growth. The present study assessed, for the first time, the aquaculture potential of Parhyale hawaiensis and Elasmopus pectenicrus, two cosmopolitan marine gammarids (as per traditional schemes of classification) that naturally proliferate in the wild and in aquaculture facilities. Despite their potentially easy culture, there are no established culture techniques and a deeper knowledge on the reproductive biology, nutritional profiles and culture methodologies is still needed to potentiate the optimization of mass production. Unlike Artemia, marine amphipods are consumed by fish in their natural environment and show biochemical profiles that better match the nutritional requirements of marine fish, particularly of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), including eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids. The use of Artemia is convenient for the culture of many marine species, but often problematic for some others, such as seahorses and other marine ornamental species.
