Parent scallops were carried to Qingdao on Dec. 20. 1982 and stocked in indoor tanks at controlled temperature and fed with a mixture of Phaeodictylum tricomutum, Pyrarnmonas sp. and Chhrella sp. They spawned on Jan. 26 of the next year. The larvae were reared at a temperature of 18 -21℃ and fed with Isochrysis galbana, Pyramimonas sp. and Chorella sp. In 4 weeks’ growing, the spats averaged 827um. They attained a height of 6.9 mm on May 9.
