Ontogenetic development of the digestive system in yellowtail kingfish Seriola lalandi larvae
TL;DR: This study shows the quick development of the digestive system in yellowtail kingfish, and the results should lead to a better understanding of the ontogeny of fast-growing fish larvae and improvement of larval rearing success in hatcheries.

Deleterious effects of food restrictions in yellowtail kingfish Seriola lalandi during early development
TL;DR: It is indicated that yellowtail kingfish larvae are more vulnerable to starvation in the first 2 weeks after the start of first feeding but fish become more tolerant to a short-term starvation after 33 DAH.

Responses of digestive enzymes and body lipids to weaning times in yellowtail kingfish Seriola lalandi (Valenciennes, 1833) larvae
TL;DR: The results suggest that 16 DPH is the earliest day to wean and the best weaning window for YTK larvae should be 19–22 DPH.

TL;DR: Investigations have developed a preliminary SBFT propagation husbandry protocol that has been implemented at CST Arno Bay hatchery in South Australia, including the techniques for broodstock management and induced spawning in the land-based facility, as well as larvae and juvenile fish rearing until the end of the nursery stage.

Ontogenetic development of digestive enzymes in yellowtail kingfish Seriola lalandi larvae
TL;DR: The composition of digestive enzymes indicates that yellowtail kingfish is able to digest protein, lipid and carbohydrates at an early stage, however, due to the low level of amylase specific activity after 18 DAH, the carbohydrate component should remain at a low level in formulated diets for fish larvae.
