TLDR
In this paper, the first pilot trial of an amphipod culture within an offshore IMTA facility was carried out between May and September 2014, testing two collector types, two depths, at 5'm and 15'm, and two experimental times.About:

Integrated multitrophic aquaculture systems – Potential risks for food safety
João G. Rosa,Marco F.L. Lemos,Daniel Crespo,Daniel Crespo,Margarida Nunes,Andreia Freitas,Fernando Ramos,Miguel Ângelo Pardal,Sara Leston +8 more
TL;DR: The present review describes a vast number of substances that can be found in IMTAs, either intentionally administered or resulting from contamination, and subsequently accumulated in species reared afterwards in these systems.

From sessile to vagile: Understanding the importance of epifauna to assess the environmental impacts of coastal defence structures
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of artificial structures on amphipod assemblage and to identify the main factors involved were assessed in five different substrates (seawalls, cubes, acropods, rip-raps and natural rock).

Two cases study of fouling colonization patterns in the Mediterranean Sea in the perspective of integrated aquaculture systems
Adriana Giangrande,M. Lezzi,M. Del Pasqua,Cataldo Pierri,Caterina Longo,Maria Flavia Gravina +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the macrofouling assemblages over one year of immersion, in order to single out the fouling species, which play the most remarkable role for the bioremediation of the marine areas affected by aquaculture activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional role of biofouling linked to aquaculture facilities in Mediterranean enclosed locations
Valeria Montalto,Maria Cristina Mangano,Gianluca Sarà,M. Cristina Mangano,Alessandro Rinaldi,Francesca Ape,Simone Mirto,Michele Gristina +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the filtration activity of biofouling assemblages colonizing artificial substrata located within a harbor and found that the performance of the communities was affected by the seasonality and the amount of biomass recruiting on the panels, mainly composed of crustaceans, ascidians, polychaetes, seaweeds and several introduced species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aquaculture waste as food for amphipods: the case of Gammarus insensibilis in marsh ponds from southern Spain
TL;DR: The main aim of this study was to determine whether waste products of aquaculture provided an adequate diet for the amphipod in comparison to other traditional diets, such as Artemia nauplii or phytoplankton.

Assessing the Influence of Salmon Farming through Total Lipids, Fatty Acids, and Trace Elements in the Liver and Muscle of Wild Saithe Pollachius virens
Pablo Arechavala-Lopez,Bjørn-Steinar Sæther,Frutos C. Marhuenda-Egea,Pablo Sanchez-Jerez,Ingebrigt Uglem +4 more
TL;DR: High levels of Fe, As, Se, Zn, and B in liver, but also As, B, Li, Hg, and Sr in muscle of Saithe captured away from farms indicated the absence of feeding at farms, while variations in specific trace element signatures among fish groups revealed the farming influence on wild Saite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in Trace Element Content between Non-Indigenous Farmed and Invasive Bivalve Mollusks of the South African Coast
TL;DR: Higher content of zinc in the mussels and oysters from Saldanha Bay may evidence anthropogenic pollution of the bay’s ecosystem by this metal, which necessitates continued monitoring of levels of potentially toxic metals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Substrate selection of the caprellid Caprella dilatata (Crustacea, Amphipoda)
TL;DR: Despite the cosmopolitan morphology of C. dilatata for selection of the substrate, the individuals were mostly found in structurally complex substrates, and the experiments show the importance of camouflage for these caprellids.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cultivation of marine amphipods and their use as food for young Salmonids
TL;DR: Populations of the amphipod, Anisogammarus pugettensis (Dana) 1853, can be raised for several generations under laboratory conditions and grew more rapidly to maximum biomass and reached a new generation earlier when both were grown under their optimal growth conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exotic Amphipods in Aquaculture Systems: Presence and Potential Use
TL;DR: Of the six amphipod species recorded in fish aquaculture systems, Jassa marmorata (Holmes, 1903) is the most abundant and differences were established in the species' abundance and between sites; however, no variation was observed in species composition.
