Evaluation of the survival of sand lobster seeds after transportation at different densities

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of density on the survival of sand lobster fry after transportation. The study used a completely randomized design (CRD), consisting of three density treatments: 10 individuals/container, 15 individuals/container, and 20 individuals/container. The lobster juvenile were reared for 15 days and fed twice daily. The parameters observed were total hemocytes, plasma glucose, and lobster fry survival. The results showed that the density treatment of 10 individuals/container produced the highest survival rate, namely 76.67±5.77%. The densities of 15 individuals/container and 20 individuals/container each produced survival rates of 64.44±3.85% and 43.33±5.77%, respectively.
