The various stages of embryonic growth pharaoh´s cuttlefish (Sepia pharaonis) reside in Oman until hatching was studied. Gregor tours and the eggs collected for further study of the propagation of Education, Research Center of the Earth - Chabahar Moved .once every 24 hours to get detailed information was sampling of from fertilized eggs. Egg size of 11±4 mm were selected because of the large size of cuttlefish eggs during incubation stages of embryonic development within the capsule is visible. The studies showed that the water temperature of 20±2°C hatching takes about 20±10 days. In this study results showed that the first cleavage was performed on the first day and the 15th day after the yolk sac has started to decrease. Tentacle is visible on day 14. Cuttlefish in all developmental stages of the embryonic development of a model to follow, but the temperature plays an important role in hatching time.

Abstract
Abstract This study was performed to compare the efficiency of 6 microalgae namely Dunaliella tertiolecta, Tetraselmis suecica, Chlorella sp., (green algae), Nannochloropsis oculata, Spirolina sp.(blue-green algae) Cheatocerus sp. (Diatoma), and Isochrices sp. (Haptophytae) on the growth, survival ...

Abstract This study was performed to compare the efficiency of 6 microalgae namely Dunaliella tertiolecta, Tetraselmis suecica, Chlorella sp., (green algae), Nannochloropsis oculata, Spirolina sp.(blue-green algae) Cheatocerus sp. (Diatoma), and Isochrices sp. (Haptophytae) on the growth, survival and reproduction efficacy in Artemia urmiana in laboratory conditions. Artemia cysts were harvested from Urmia Lake and hatched according to the standard method. Live microalgae were cultured using the F/2 Guillard's culture medium. Artemia survival was determined in treatments on days 8, 11, 14, 17 and 20. Length growth of A. urmiana was measured in three-day intervals. To determine reproduction efficiency characteristics such as cysts production, intervals between two successive reproductions, first reproduction time and the date of female Artemia were analyzed. The results indicated a significant difference (p < 0.001) among three microalgae in terms of length growth, survival rates and reproduction characteristics in A.urmiana. There was a direct relationship between Artemia length growth and reproductive characteristics. This study showed that survival rate, length growth and reproductive characteristics of A.urmiana fed by Dunaliella tertiolecta were significantly higher than A.urmiana fed by other microalgae. It seems that Artemia culture in salt water with Dunaliella as natural flora is a suitable choice.

Abstract
This study was performed to determine the effect of Phallocryptus spinosa as a diet on fecundity and hatching performance of 4 trade valuable prawn ornamental fish genera, including Angel Fish (Pterophyllum scalare), Green Tailor (Aequidens rivulatus), Gourami (Trichopodus trichopterus) , and Afra (Cynotilapia ...

This study was performed to determine the effect of Phallocryptus spinosa as a diet on fecundity and hatching performance of 4 trade valuable prawn ornamental fish genera, including Angel Fish (Pterophyllum scalare), Green Tailor (Aequidens rivulatus), Gourami (Trichopodus trichopterus) , and Afra (Cynotilapia afra). Prawn ornamental fish genera, were studied in two test groups feeding with cow heart and spinach – and fairy shrimp (Phallocryptus spinosa) in one treatment and two replicates for a month in controlled condition and sultable for each genera. Also, additionally, all fish were fed granulated concentrate daily. Between group comparison in each genera showed a significant difference (pPhallocryptus spinosa can increase reproductive performance in mentioned prawn ornamental fish.
