Abstract

The success of any large-scale finfish culture is mainly dependent upon the continuous and adequate supply offish seed. Although fish seed may be collected from the wild, natural sources of fish seed are unreliable and mostly seasonal. Here comes the importance of controlled breeding and mass scale larval rearing. [n the background of the increased emphasis given by the Government oflndia to aquaculture, the present status oflarval rearing of important cultivable ornamental marine finfishes in our country is reviewed in this paper giving stress on the constraints in the progress of the research in this line.
