Description A major problem faced by our shrimp hatcheries is the non-availability of spawners of the desired species
around the year. It impairs the planning of the hatchery operations on an year round basis. For instance the
spawners of the white prawn, Penaeus indicus which are not always available along the west coast are
available in plenty off the east coast. This prompted the CMFRI to investigate the feasibility of transporting
Nauplii from east coast to west coast. The team consisting of N.N. Pillai, P.E. Sampson Manickam,
K.R. Manmadhan Nair, MR. Arpudaraj, N. Rajamani and K.N. Gopalakrishnan worked on this
project and achieved the breakthrough in nauplii transportation to help the languishing hatcheries and to
reduce the substantial cost of spawner maintenance and consequently the cost of seeds.
