description Abstract Chaetognaths are ubiquitous in the marine environment and are among the most abundant carnivorous plankton. Nevertheless, characterization of physiological parameters remains limited largely due to the difficulty in obtaining the data from pelagic chaetognaths in laboratory studies. This study therefore aimed to determine the feeding and growth rates of Zonosagitta nagae under laboratory rearing condition. A total of 54 field-collected chaetognaths with maturity Stage I and II ranging from 5 to 12 mm in body length collected in June, August and October were individually incubated at 20–22°C with excess copepod prey and growth parameters were obtained from 26 individuals that survived ~10–46 days. For Z. nagae, ingestion and growth rates increased with body dry weight, and both parameters were significantly related, indicating that gross growth efficiency was ~47%. Specific ingestion rates ranged from 0.03 to 0.43 d−1 and tended to decrease with an increase of size of the chaetognaths. Individual specific growth rate varied widely in small-sized individuals (~6 mm), ranging from −0.103 to 0.135, but became relatively constant (~0.032) with increasing size. Overall the study results suggest that Z. nagae is characterized by high gross growth efficiency, which is in striking contrast with previously studied inshore species.
