For successful prawn aquaculture, feeds should be based on readily consumed ingredients that promote survival and optimal growth performance. This pilot study investigates the rearing of juvenile Baltic prawn Palaemon adspersus. Two feeding trials were carried out for 60 days; both incorporated insect meals, the first one in fishmeal‐based diets, whereas the second one in plant meal ones. Insect meals derived from larvae of Tenebrio molitor (TM), Hermetia illucens (HI) and Musca domestica (MD) were tested as feed ingredients. This study indicated that the inclusion of HI in fishmeal diets resulted in significantly higher growth performance and survival of the prawns, whereas the MD diet led to similarly high growth performance reducing significantly their survival. Growth performance was not affected by the insect inclusion in the plant‐based diets, but survival was higher in the TM and HI inclusion diets. The inclusion of TM and HI resulted in higher protein and energy content of the prawns’ muscle when incorporated in fishmeal and plant meal diets respectively. No significant differences were observed in the activities of hepatopancreas’ amino acid‐catabolizing enzymes. Concluding, the combinations fishmeal–HI and plant meal–TM can be used for the successful rearing of Baltic prawn.

昆虫粉作为饲料成分对虾对虾的存活，生长以及新陈代谢和抗氧化反应的影响（Rathke，1837年）

对于成功的对虾养殖，饲料应以易于食用的能促进生存和最佳生长性能的成分为基础。这项初步研究调查了幼体波罗的海虾Palaemon adspersus的饲养。进行了两次为期60天的喂养试验；两种都掺入了昆虫粉，第一类是基于鱼粉的膳食，第二种是植物性膳食。来自黄粉虫（TM），白粉虫（HI）和家蝇（Musca domestica）幼虫的昆虫粉（MD）作为饲料成分进行了测试。这项研究表明，鱼粉日粮中所含的HI导致虾的生长性能和存活率显着提高，而MD日粮导致类似的高生长性能，大大降低了它们的存活率。以植物为基础的日粮中的昆虫包裹体对生长性能没有影响，但是以TM和HI的日粮中的昆虫存活率更高。当分别掺入鱼粉和植物粉日粮中时，TM和HI的加入会导致虾肌肉的蛋白质和能量含量更高。肝胰腺的氨基酸代谢酶的活性没有观察到显着差异。最后，鱼粉HI和植物粉TM的组合可用于成功养育波罗的海虾。
