Brachionus - why it is so popular as larval food

Brachionus is often used as an initial food in fish aquaculture. In addition to the high reproduction rate and broad tolerance with regard to water parameters, its small size and planktonic nature are particularly advantageous. Brachionus also move relatively slowly and are thus easy to catch as prey for fish larvae. Although rotifers do not have an optimal nutrient or fatty acid profile, as filter feeders they can easily be enriched with valuable ingredients.
