The feeding rhythm of Oxyeleotris marmoratus (Bleeker) larvae was studied in experimental condition.The feeding incidence (FI) under different light intensity was also investigated.The results showed that an obvious circadian rhythm of feeding was observed in the larvae of 5, 8 and 12 days after hatching (DAH).The feeding proceeded mainly during 16:00-00:00, when poor illumination occurred.Comparing with experiments under 10Lx, 1000Lx and absolutely darkness, the feeding incidence increased obviously under 100-500Lx for the larvae of 5 DAH and under 10-100Lx for larvae of 8, 12 DAH.
