Warming but not food limitation alters metabolism during larval development in crown-of-thorns sea stars (Acanthaster sp.)

Respiration data of Acanthaster sp. reared as both fed and unfed larvae at four temperature treatments (control: 26°C; warm: 28°C, 30°C, 32°C) based on current and projected OW and measured metabolic rate (oxygen consumption, V O2) across development to the late larval stage. Dataset includes size (larval area, length and width), developmental stage and plate reader details.
