Abstract:The salinity level for the culture of megalopae affects crablet production. The research aimed to determine the optimum salinity level for the megalopa of S. tranquebarica rearing. Nine aquariums randomly selected and filled with sterile seawater, have different salinity levels (A. 29-30 ppt, B. 27-28 ppt, and C. 25-26 ppt) used for megalopae rearing. Each aquarium is stocked with 30 individuals of megalopa. Each treatment with three replications. Crumble pellets and Artemia nauplii are given as feed for megal… Show more
