Theexperiment was replicated (n = 3 simultaneously) and the mean values were calculated.
Shrimp juveniles were counted every day of the experiment.
Percentage of survival (%) was calculated based on the number of surviving shrimp at a particular day of the experiment.
Total length (mm) and the body weight (g) of the shrimp were analyzed once in ten days up to 30 days of theexperiment.
Shrimp carcasses were dry at 105ฐC for 12 h in an oven and were weighed by using electronic balance (Shimadzu,UniBloc, 0.001 g accuracy).
Moisture content, crude protein, ash,total lipids and nitrogen free extract (NFE) were also calculated by FAO methods (FAO, 1994).
