Preliminary studies on the rearing of the red-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides larvae using copepod nauplii as initial food
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 1996)
One day old red-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) larvae from SEAFDEC, Iloilo, were packed at 3.300 ind/L and transported to Dagupan, Pangasinan for larval rearing. Transport time was about 10 hours. More than 90% of ...
Use of copepod nauplii during early feeding stage of grouper Epinephelus coioides
(Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 1999)
Newly-hatched Epinephelus coioides larvae were stocked in five 5-ton tanks at an initial density of 25, 000 ind/tank. Copepod nauplii were propagated in four of these tanks by inoculating various densities (20 to 80 ind/l) ...
Evaluation of agar-bound microparticulate diet as alternative food in abalone hatchery: Effects of agar concentrations and feeding frequencies
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2013)
The performance of an agar-bound microparticulate diet (A-MPD) was evaluated on feeding postlarval abalone Haliotis asinina, focusing on the effects of agar concentrations and feeding frequencies. Larval abalone, obtained ...
The effect of diet on the reproductive performance of pond-reared Penaeus monodon Fabricius broodstock
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
Three practical diets were tested for their effects on the reproductive performance, survival and larval quality of pond-reared Penaeus monodon. Diets A, B and C were formulated to contain the same basal components but ...
Milkfish nutrition: A review
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)
This paper reviews recent work on milkfish nutrition. Substantial progress had been made towards understanding the digestive physiology of milkfish. Major enzaymes envolved in the digestions of carbohydrates, protein and ...
Acetes as prime food for Penaeus monodon larvae
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
This paper presents research attempts to develop a suitable artificial diet for shrimp larvae with locally-available materials. Larval rearing experiments using finely ground Acetes tissues conducted under various climatic ...
Influence of various dietary synthetic carotenoids on bio-defence mechanisms in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2001)
This study examined the influence of different carotenoids on growth and some immune indices in rainbow trout. Six semipurified casein-based diets were formulated to contain one of three different carotenoids: astaxanthin, ...
Apparent digestibility of selected ingredients in diets for juvenile grouper, Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
Apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) for dry matter (ADC<sub>dm</sub>) and crude protein (ADC<sub>cp</sub>) of selected feed ingredients were determined in vivo for grouper using passive faeces collection (Guelph ...
Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios of penaeid juveniles and primary producers in a riverine mangrove in Guimaras, Philippines
(University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, 1996)
Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios were analyzed for primary producers and juveniles of four penaeid species (Metapenaeus ensis, Penaeus indicus, P. merquiensi and P. monodon) in a riverine mangrove in Guimaras, ...
Status of shrimp nutrition and feed development in Southeast Asia.
(Asian Fisheries Society. AFS Spec. Publ. 4, 1989)
World demand for shrimp has increased significantly in the last decade. Of the 32 species investigated, the most commonly cultured in Southeast Asia is the Penaeus monodon . Formulated feed constituted around 50% of the ...
