Weaning experiments with Dover sole (Solea solea) larvae

Two experiments were performed in an hatchery; in the first 520 sole larvae, average live weight (a.l.w.) 37 mg, 52 dah, were distributed among 8 net cages and fed two microdiets, for 55 days (d). Protein, fat, EPA contents were: 64.1 and 62.6; 21.9 and 18.5% on d.m.; 8.9 and 9.0% of fat respectively for diet A and B. Artemia enriched naupli (AEN) were distributed for 28 d, at 5 (1st week), 3 (2nd w.) and 2 units/ml (3rd and 4th ws.). In the secon trial 1040 sole larvae, a.l.w. 69 mg, 87 dah, were distributed among 16 net cages (4 replicates, diet A and B,8
