Description
Effects of two types of rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis, common S-type (Lorica length mean 169μm) and small S-type of Thai strains (Thai-type, mean LL 145μm), on first feeding success and post-first-feeding survival in a mass seed production scale of coral trout, Plectropomus leopardus larvae were investigated. Two 60 kl concrete tanks were used for the experiment: one contained S-type and the other Thai-type rotifer of which densities were maintained at 15 ind./ml. The experiment was repeated twice. In the 2nd trial, one additional tank was prepared as a negative control fed Thai-type rotifer under 24 hrs darkness. The larvae started feeding since 3 days after hatching (DAH) and the experiment was finished 5 DAH. The larvae were sampled every 2 hrs to examine feeding incidence and the gut contents between 5 am and 11 pm on 3-4 DAH. In both 1st and 2nd trials of the time attained more than 50% average feeding incidence of the larvae was two hours faster in Thai-type rotifer feeding tanks than in S-type rotifer tanks on the first feeding day (3DAH) . The average rotifer number eaten by a larva was significantly higher in the former tank than the latter on 3 DAH. On the contrary, negative control tank showed the lowest feeding incidence and lowest number of rotifer in the gut. Survival rate on 5 DAH was higher in Thai-type rotifer tank than in S-type one in both trials. These results suggested that Thai-type rotifer is recommended from the viewpoint of first feeding success and the following survival. Tryptic activity was clearly noticed just after the first feeding of larvae fed Thai-type and S-type rotifer.
