Survey on the use of natural food and supplemental feed in commercial milkfish farms on Panay, Philippines
(Stuttgart University, 2000)
This study evaluated the feed intake of the milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskål) in commercial brackishwater ponds under different management regimes. Feed intake and growth were compared between a rather intensive culture ...
Production of hatchery-bred early juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos) in nursery ponds through supplemental feeding
Hatchery-bred early juvenile Milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskål, 1755) (average weight of 0.45 g) were stocked in a 500 m<sup>2</sup> nursery pond at a density of 16 juveniles/m<sup>2</sup> during the dry months (March-May). ...
Use of metaldehyde as molluscicide in milkfish ponds
(British Crop Protection Council, 1996)
META<sup>R</sup> metaldehyde formulations were tested under laboratory and faild conditions againts brackishwater pond snails (certhium so.). Under laboratory conditions the LC<sub>50</sub> and LC<sub>99</sub> 3 days after ...
Tryptophan requirement of juvenile Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
The dietary requirement of tryptophan for juvenile Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) was studied. The juveniles (mean initial weight, 5.30 ± 0.06 g) were given semi-purified test diets containing fish ...
Nutritional evaluation of mysids Mesopodopsis orientalis (Crustacea:Mysida) as live food for grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus larvae
The potential of mysids Mesopodopsis orientalis as live food source for grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus larvae was investigated. In comparison with Artemia biomass, a common live food source in larviculture, mysids ...
Significant organotin contamination of sediment and tissues of milkfish in brackish water ponds.
(Springer Verlag, 1999)
Organotin pesticides, triphenyltin acetate or hydroxide have long been used as an inexpensive method to control the population of brackish water shails Cerithidea cingulata in the pond culture of milkfish (Chanos chanos ...
Molluscicidal activity of tobacco dust against brackishwater pond snails (Cerithidea cingulata Gmelin)
(Elsevier, 1998)
Toxicity tests on the effect of tobacco dust against brackishwater pond snails (Cerithidea cingulata Gmelin) of various stages or size ranges were conducted under controlled laboratory conditions. The 72-h LC<sub>50</sub> ...
Evaluation of some terrestrial proteins in complete diets for grouper (Epinephelus coioides) juveniles
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2004)
This study was undertaken to determine the nutritive value of some of the more widely available protein sources in the diets for grouper juveniles, based on apparent digestibility coefficients for dry matter (ADMD) and ...

Apparent digestibility of selected feed ingredients in diets for grouper (Epinephelus coioides) juveniles
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2004)
This study was conducted to determine the quality of selected feed ingredients as protein sources in grouper diets, based on their nutrient composition and apparent digestibility coefficients for dry matter (ADMD) and crude ...
Contribution of natural food and supplemental feed to the gut content of Penaeus monodon Fabricius in a semi-intensive pond system in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1998)
Juvenile Penaeus monodon were stocked in grow-out ponds and fed a compound diet at high rates for 19 weeks under semi-intensive conditions. At three stages of the rearing period (weeks 6, 11 and 16), the gut content of the ...
