Boosting the productivity of sea urchin aquaculture using a dietary intervention

The objective of the project is to overcome two identified bottlenecks in the production of sea urchins: 1) poor survival of spat and 2) density dependent growth of juvenile and adult sea urchins. In doing so, we aim to improve the economic viability of hatchery and growout phase of production.
