Black soldier fly Hermetia illucens larvae as protein source for giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii larvae feed
The giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii is a targeted species in Malaysia with potential to become an income generator. The fall of production for cultured giant freshwater prawns in Malaysia were due to declining quality brood stock supply, small productivity, imported food dependence...
