Abstract

An improved husbandry practice for larval rearing in the seabass hatchery such as stocking density is required. The experiment was designed to observe the survival and growth rate of seabass reared from day 1 to 15 at densities of 40 30 and 20/litre. Newly hatched seabass larvae were reared in 800 litres capacity tank at the amount of 32 0 24 000 and 16 000 larvae/tank. The larvae were given rotifer on the third day. Artemia was fed to the larvae on the 9th day. Water in the larval rearing tanks were maintained and changed daily. The results showed that the lower stocking density gives a higher survival and growth rate. From the experiment the suitable stocking density for rearing seabass larvae at this stage is 30 larvae/litre
