Description Live feeds play an important role in aquaculture operation. Presently,
the groups of live feeds employed in the culture systems are
limited to afew species ofphyto and zooplankters. Dunaliella salina,
(greenmicroalga), a member of Chlorophyceae, is an unconventional
live feed. The culture of this species is presently limited to laboratory
experimental stage only. In view of the paucity of studies
on the culture and utilization of Dunaliella salina, the present investigation
was undertaken to explore and estimate the potential use of this
species. The results of rearing of Juvenile clams with Dunaliella as live
feeds are presented and discussed.
