The grazing of P. nana was examined by the analysis of decreased number of microalgae and chlorophyll a content in rearing water and pigment content in the gut of P. nana. The maximum content of decreased chlorophyll a and gut pigment in P. nana varied with microalgae species and concentrations. It appeared at the food concentration 30 ng chl a/ml in T. suecica, 40 ng chl a/ml in I. galnaba and D. tertiolecta, and 45 ng chl a/ml in P. tricornutum, respectively. The grazing rate of a P. nana per hour also varied with different microalgae species and concentrations. The maximum grazing rate per hour of P. nana fed T. suecica with 39.3 ng chl a/ml was the highest with 0.63 ng chl a/h, but lowest with 0.52 ng chl a/h. From these results, it can be concluded that T. suecica is the best species among four microalgae species for the mass culture of P. nana and daily optimum food concentration of P. nana is 25~39 ng chl a (approximately 10~15 10 4 cells).
