Abstract

The experiments were carried for the purpose of 1 comparing the effectiveness of formulated feed with fresh feed and 2 determining the suitable particle size of the formulated feed for the postlarvae of tiger shrimp PL 5-PL 26. The experiments were conducted in fibreglass tanks of about 300 litre capacity. In experiment I postlarvae were given 3 types of formulated feed and 3 types of fresh feed. The results showed that formulated feed gave a significantly P less than 0.05 higher average survival rate than fresh feed. The average final body weight however was not significantly different. In experiment II postlarvae were given the same formulated feed but with five different range of sizes. The result indicated that the size range of 297-420 mewm and 420-850 mewm gave a significantly P less than 0.05 higher average survival rate compared to size range of 105-180 180-297 and 105-850 mewm. However the average final body weight for both range of sizes decreased significantly
