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.

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.

Changes in body condition and fatty acid composition of wild Mediterranean horse mackerel (Trachurus mediterraneus, Steindachner, 1868) associated to sea cage fish farms
Damian Fernandez-Jover,Jose Angel Lopez Jimenez,Pablo Sanchez-Jerez,Just T. Bayle-Sempere,Francisca Giménez Casalduero,Francisco J. López,Tim Dempster +6 more
TL;DR: The increased condition of wild fish associated with farms could increase the spawning ability of coastal fish populations, if wild fish are protected from fishing while they are present at farms, ifWild Mediterranean horse mackerel populations aggregated around two Mediterranean fish farms and from two natural control populations were analyzed.

Effect of totally or partially replacing fish meal by alternative protein sources on growth of African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) reared in concrete tanks
TL;DR: The study revealed that satisfactory growth and feed utilization responses could be achieved through the replacement of FM by PBM, SBM and MBM in the diet of African catfish.

Stable isotope and fatty acid evidence for uptake of organic waste by green-lipped mussels Perna viridis in a polyculture fish farm system
TL;DR: To evaluate the feasibility and capability of using filter-feeding bivalves as biofilters for organic waste derived from fish faeces and feed wastage in marine fish culture activities, a poly- culture system comprising fish and green-lipped mussels Perna viridis was developed by transplan- tation of mussels into fish cages.

Meat and bone meal as partial replacement for fish meal in diets for gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) juveniles: Growth, feed efficiency, amino acid utilization, and economic efficiency
Sara Moutinho,Silvia Martínez-Llorens,Ana Tomás-Vidal,Miguel Jover-Cerdá,Aires Oliva-Teles,Helena Peres +5 more
TL;DR: Overall, up to 50% of FM protein can be replaced by MBM protein in diets for gilthead seabream juveniles, without compromising growth performance, feed utilization, and nutrient retention.
