W. Snell ISBN 0-9662960-0-1 Published by Florida Aqua Farms, Inc. =20

The chapter titles are 1. Aquatic Food Webs, 2. Utilization of Plankton, =
3. Microalgae Identification, 4. Microalgae Culture, 5. Rotifer Culture, =
6. Ciliate Culture, 7. Artiemia Culture, 8. Copepod Culture, 9. Daphnia =
Culture, 10. Clam and Oyster Veligers, 11 Amphipod Culture, 12 Mysid =
Culture, 13. Micro Worm Culture, 14. Literature Cited (10 pages), 15. =
Conversion Tables. The total pages is 160.

This book is one of the easiest and cheapest books I have had in the =
aquaculture course that I am taking. The author Frank H Hoff pioneered =
the use of closed, recirculating, artificial seawater systems to raise =
clownfish many years ago. This book is an outgrowth from that research =
