Influence of Pediveliger Larvae Stocking Density on Settlement Efficiency and Seed Production in Captivity of in Amsa Bay, Tetouan.

In mussel hatchery systems, the settlement process is a crucial element influencing seed yield. The current study assayed the influence of five densities of competent pediveliger larvae on settlement success and post-larvae production. We showed an inverse relationship between density and settlement efficiency, e.
