Feeding of abalone juveniles with two species of sargassum (Sargassum cristaefolium and sargassum polycystum). 6 6 - - - - - - - - . - . - 0 . - . - 0 .

ABSTRACT The species preference, growth and survival rates of juveniles of Haliotis asinina fed with two species of Sargassum i.e.,Sargassum cristaefolium and Sargassum polycystum, were evaluated over a 75 day culture period. Proximate composition of the two species of Sargassum was also determined. The test organism preferred S. cristaefolium (80%) more than S. polycystum (20%). Growth rate in terms of shell length and weight as well as the survival rate did not differ significantly among juveniles fed with two species of Sargassum. Protein content of S. polycystum (6.26%) is higher than S. cristaefolium (3.45%)
