Abstract: Larvae of Macrobrachium rosenbergii were fed with four types of egg custard diets; EC I, EC II, EC III and EC IV with triplicate each. 12 of 35 L plastic aquarium filled with 20 L of 12 ppt brackish water and I day old larvae were stocked in density of 50 larvae in 1 litre of water cultured for 20 days. Results showed that highest body length of larvae was observed on larvae fed with EC I which recorded 4.592±0.489a mm. Meanwhile for the highest SGR value was obtained on diet EC I (3.630±0.542a mm) followed by EC III (3.408±0.138a mm), EC IV (3.234±0.279a mm) and EC II (3.163±0.191a mm) respectively. Survival of larvae was highest on diet EC I (32±8a) at the end of experiment followed by EC IV (29±9.24a), EC III (27±9.24a) and EC II (24±0a) respectively. Results indicated that different milk composition in diets had no significant different on growth and survival of Macrobrachium rosenbergii larvae (P>0.05).
