In this study, we investigated the feeding behavior of the brown-marbled grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus with light intensities ranging over eight orders of magnitude from 0 – 1000 lx to estimate the optimum light intensity for larval rearing. Artemia ingestion rates of E. fuscoguttatus of 36 day...
