Description Pearl oyster larvae are reared in static water
in dense numbers and fed with large amounts
of unicellular algae. The combination of
high larval densities, debris from dead
larvae and high loads of organic matter
stimulates the selection and growth of
opportunistic bacteria in larval tankslx2.
High microbial load noted in the rearing
water, tissue samples and in the micro
algal feed, resulted in poor spat production
of less than 3.0% in Pinctada fucata
hatchery3.
