The effects of different diets on survival of marine oligochaetes worm (Oligochaeta: Tubificidae)

This experiment is designed to observe the suitability of different diets on survival rate of marine oligochates worm in laboratory scale using flowing water system. The oligochaetes worms were cultured in five different diet treatments (commercial pellet, seaweed, goat dung, soybean meal and com...

Angling This experiment is designed to observe the suitability of different diets on survival rate of marine oligochates worm in laboratory scale using flowing water system. The oligochaetes worms were cultured in five different diet treatments (commercial pellet, seaweed, goat dung, soybean meal and combination diet) each having triplicates. The oligochaetes were cultured for 90 days. The highest survival rate of oligochaetes culture were found significant (p < 0.001) in the combined diet containing goat dung (20%), seaweed (Gracilaria sp.: 20%) and soybean meal (20%).
