Abstract
The metabolic rate of Japanese sea bass,Lateolabrax japonicus (C & V), was estimated in laboratory at temperature 25.2±0.5°C. The fresh weight of the fish was 4.64–52.28 g (average of 17.81±0.33 g). The routine metabolism was related to body weight by the exponential equation:R r =14.966W 0.74 (r=0.934). The rate of feeding metabolism increased linearly with food consumption. Feeding metabolic rate was 1.8–2.4 times the routine metabolic rate.
