Abstract

An important requisite for mass-rearing of prawn and fish larvae being
easy estimation of cell densities of phytoplankton cultures used as feed, a simple
method, involving a Secchi-disc principle, is developed, to be used, with due
precautions, for rapid estimation of cell concentration in phytoplankton culture
tanks.
