“…This disparity is probably due to the large size differences between gastropods in these 2 studies (1 to 3 cm) compared to trochus (5 to 12 cm), as we expect higher respiration rates for small individuals (see below). More similar respiration rates were found for the similarly sized gastropod Haliotis asinina (a tropical abalone), at 2 to 10 μmol O 2 g −1 AFDW h −1 for resting and crawling individuals, respectively (Baldwin et al 2007). Average carbon fluxes measured in our study (5 to 18 μmol C g −1 AFDW h −1 ) are also similar to those previously published on temperate gastropods such as Patella vulgata (7 to 17 μmol C g −1 AFDW h ; Martin et al 2006).…”

“…The enhanced activity at night would then increase oxygen requirements, and subsequently, CO 2 release. In abalone for example, crawling individuals have higher respiration rates than resting ones (Baldwin et al 2007). No detailed study on trochus activity rhythms is available to interpret the difference we observed between seasons, which could be related to differences in foraging strategies or movement patterns.…”

Researchers often use metabolic measurements in the field over narrow time periods to estimate an organism's metabolism over large time scales. Here, we measured in situ respiration, calcification and excretion rates of the tropical gastropod Tectus niloticus L. through benthic chamber experiments. Our samples spanned a 21 h time frame and were taken during both the warm and cool seasons. We assessed diel and seasonal variability in metabolic rates, as well as the effect of individual size and the contribution of shell epi-and endobionts. Our results show that metabolic rates vary through time at both diel and seasonal scales, as measured fluxes for respiration and calcification were significantly higher at night during the warm season. This nocturnal pattern was not significant in the cool season. Size effects were significant with higher respiration and calcification rates for small individuals regardless of the season, although the difference tended to be more pronounced in the warm season. We also found that shell epi-and endobionts made an important contribution to respiration, as 40 and up to 100% of total measured fluxes for night and day, respectively, could be attributed to the shell community. More importantly, the direction of the measured flux was occasionally opposite that of the individual trochus, highlighting that the contribution of shell epi-and endobionts must be accounted for in order to achieve an accurate understanding of individual metabolism. Lastly, depending on the time of day and season when measurements are taken, ignoring diel or seasonal variations in metabolic rates could result in important under-or overestimation of the contributions of gastropods to carbon and calcium carbonate fluxes in coastal ecosystems.

Larval settlement stage of abalone (Haliotis asinine) depends on availability of feed and substrate compatibility. Existing feed size and feed type diversity in substrate will affect larval settlement stage, feeding habit and survival rate of abalone larvae. This study aims to find out the most suitable substrate for larval settlement of the tropical abalone. It is conducted in February-April, 2013 at Brackish Water Aquaculture Center, Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi. Applied experimental design is Completely Randomized Design. There are 3 types of test substrate: coral, cement and plastic with 3 replications for each substrate. This study shows that statistically, substrate differences do not affect to larval settlement stage. The highest stage of larval settlement is to coral substrate by 3.3%, followed by cement and plastic by 2.2% and 0.2% respectively. The highest average stage of living larva on coral and cement substrate are 15.3%, while on plastic substrate is 8.7%.
