Fertilized eggs were incubated in a glass aquaria for hatching. The feed and feeding scheme experiments were done in the 500 liters (water volume 300 liters) rearing tanks containing 1,000-1,500 of two-day old larvae (stage at first feeding). It was found that the larvae 3-18 days old (average total length 0.31-0.41 cm) preferably fed only on rotifer while the 21-27 day-old larvae (average total length 0.44-0.65 cm) fed on rotifer and Artemia, and the 30-45 day- old larvae (average total length 0.69-2.15 cm) fed only on Moina. %K feeding scheme %K larviculture %K sand goby %K Oxyeleotris marmoratus %U http://www.sjst.psu.ac.th/journal/25-3-pdf/10larviculturesandgoby.pdf
