Abstract
The culture of Artemia salina, commonly known as brine shrimp, serves as a crucial live feed in aquaculture, particularly for enhancing the growth and health of wild guppies (Poecilia reticulata). This research aims to establish a sustainable culture system by optimizing key parameters such as salinity, temperature, and aeration. The nutritional profile of Artemia is rich in proteins, essential fatty acids, and vitamins, making it an ideal feed for fish larvae. Through controlled experiments, the study evaluates the impact of Artemia on growth rates and survival of guppies, demonstrating significant benefits over traditional dry feeds. The findings indicate that Artemia culture can improve fish health and resilience against environmental stressors, supporting its broader adoption in aquaculture practices. This research contributes to sustainable aquaculture and food security by providing insights into effective feeding strategies and culture techniques for Artemia
