Growth performance of five marine microalgae Isochrysis galbana, Chaetoceros calcitrans, Tetraselmis suecica, Nannochloropsis oculata, Aphanocapsa species was studied under different culture conditions i.e. Conway and f/2 media at 20, 30 and 40ppt salinities (‰). The microalgae culture was undertaken in the indoor facility with 24±1° C temperature, PH 8.7±1 under 24hour photoperiod. Overall highest cell density (56.23million cells/ml) was recorded in Aphanocapsa sp. in Conway medium at 30‰ followed by N.
