Abstract: Newly hatched cuttlefish Sepiella maindroni paralarva （carcass length 2.3 mm）was fed by Artemia salina, Copepoda, Copepoda and Mysidacea, and the cuttlefish juveniles（ carcass length 12.7 mm）fed live Exopalaemon carinicauda, frozen fish, and wet formulated feed to elucidate effluences of diets on growth, survival and nutrient composition of the cuttlefish. The results showed that the cuttlefish paralarva fed Copepoda had the highest survival rates（83.3% ）, followed by the one fed Copepoda and Mysidacea （63.9%）, and then the one fed Artemia salina （13.9%）. The best growth was found in the cuttlefish paralarva fed Copepoda and Mysidacea（ 2. 65 mm every ten days）, median growth in the squid paralarva fed Copepoda and the least in the cuttlefish paralarva fed Artemia salina. For the cuttlefish juveniles, there were the best growth in the cuttlefish fed live Exopalaemon carinicauda（ 12 mm in carcass length every ten days）, followed by the juveniles fed the frozen fish （6 mm every ten days）, and then the cuttlefish fed the wet formulated feed （5 mm every ten days）. The range of survival rates in the cuttlefish juveniles fed various diets varied in a descendant order as follows ： live Exopalaemon carinicauda （ 67. 5% ） 〉 frozen fish（41.7% ） 〉 wet formulated feed （33.3%）.
