Summary Anguilla australis glass eels proved to be resilient and present strong aquaculture potential. General husbandry techniques, anaesthesia and prophylactic treatments were established for glass eels caught along the South East Coast of Victoria. Growth rate was highly variable, both between and within groups. Growth was affected by the presence or absence of a preweaning diet, weaning diet, weaning period, temperature, but not by size or density. Water quality parameters were also measured
