dc.description.abstractIt can be concluded that S. denisonii larvae fed with artemia flake diets (AFD) exhibited significantly better growth and survival rate than other three experimental diets (MWD, VFD and HFD). However, Paramecium is essential in the initial stage of larval rearing of S. denisonii as live feed, because larvae are usually very small and fragile with an undeveloped digestive system (Singh et al., 2012). Absorption of endogenous food reserves, or more accurately the transition from endogenous to exogenous nutrition, is also a critical developmental and ecological transition for fish larvae (Kamler, 2008). Present findings also emphasize the potentiality of micro worms as an alternative for artemia naupli in larval rearing of S. denisonii like other ornamental fish such as Carrassius auratus L. and Poecilia reticulata (Parameshwaran et al., 2001; Schlechtriem, 2004) and thereby production cost can be minimised. This study represents an important step for successful rearing optimization of the S. denisonii under controlled conditions and the live feeds were found to significantly affect early survival rate in this species. These findings could be beneficial for the development of better larval rearing techniques for Sahyadria denisonii under hatchery conditionsen_US
