Abstract
Fairy shrimp (Streptocephalus seali), brine shrimp (Artemia salina), and a pelleted food were fed to tiger muskellunge (the hybrid of muskellunge, Esox masquinongy, and northern pike, E. lucius) to compare acceptability and nutritional value of the diets. Fairy shrimp, although less nutritious than the pelleted diet, provided a suitable freshwater alternative to brine shrimp.
