Lineage Larvae were collected at hatching and larvae of red and blue king crabs were pooled and each stocked in a separate 2000-L tank. Larval red king crab were stocked at 50 larvae/L, the amount collected in a single day from 8 females that were hatching at the time. Because only 6 female blue king crab produced larvae simultaneously, larvae of blue king crab were collected over 3 days and were stocked at 30 larvae/L. Because of differences in thermal tolerances (Stoner et al., 2013), the red king crab were reared at 8.8°C (standard deviation [SD] 1.0), and the blue king crab were reared at 6.5°C (SD 0.6). Temperatures in each tank were monitored continuously with a HOBO TidbiT v2 temperature logger (Onset Computer Corporation, Bourne) While the larvae were in the zoeal stages, they were fed a diet of DC DHA Selco (INVE Aquaculture, Salt Lake City) enriched Artemia nauplii. The glaucothoe stage is nonfeeding; therefore, no food was provided. Each day, from stocking to the point when all of the larvae had molted to the first crab stage, 10 larvae from each species were removed, the stage of each was determined, and the mean stage of the 10 larvae was calculated.
