Abstract
Two microbound diets (MBD) containing marine fish roe were assessed as a replacement for rotifers for first feeding sea bass (Lates calcarifer) larvae. Although larvae readily ingested the MBD, total mortality had occurred by eight days post hatch; five days from the start of feeding. The results indicate that larvae were unable to digest ingested food particles.
