Fry to fingerling production of Tilapia nilotica in aquaria using phytoplankton as natural feed
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1981)
Overall results of the study indicate that the availability of high concentrations of phyloplankton in the rearing medium favoured growth of T. nilotica fry to fingerling.
The use of haptophyceae in rearing experiments on larval Penaeus orientalis
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The food value of five clones of Haptophyceae, Coccolithus pelagicus, Dicrateria zhanjiangensis, Isochrysis galbana, Tahitian Isochrysis aff. galbana, and Pseudoisochrysis paradoxa were tested for larval Penaeus orientalis. ...

Nutrition and feeding of Penaeus monodon
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1989)
Following an account of the feeding habits and nutritional needs of Penaeus monodon, diet formulation for cultured shrimp is discussed in detail. Equipment required, preparation of the diets and methods of feeding are detailed.
Ruppia maritima and Najas graminea as natural foods for Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Ruppia maritima (kusay-kusay, Hiligaynon) and Najas graminea (digman, Hiligaynon) are macrophytes growing in local brackishwater ponds believed to provide food and shelter to prawns and fishes. Their effect on growth and ...
Status of prawn (Penaeus monodon) feed development in the Philippines
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1984)
Approximately a decade ago the culture of sugpo or tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon) was in its infancy. Prawns were stock alone together with milkfish and fed mainly on natural food present in ponds. High market prices, ...
Effects of diet on reproductive performance of ablated Penaeus monodon broodstock
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Four practical diets were compared for their effects upon ovarian maturation and spawning of ablated Penaeus monodon broodstock. Diets were formulated based upon the fatty acid profile of wild P. monodon. Diets 1 and 3 ...
Growth and survival of Penaeus monodon postlarvae with different feeding regimes and stocking densities in earthen brackishwater nursery ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The effect of different stocking densities (50, 100 and 150/m2) and two feeding regimes (natural food, consisting mainly of lablab, and natural food plus artificial diet) on the growth and survival of Penaeus monodon ...
Lecithin requirement of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
An 8-week feeding experiment was carried out to determine the lecithin requirement of Penaeus monodon postlarvae. Six shrimps with initial mean weight of 0.11 g were stocked in oval fiberglass tanks in a flowthrough system ...
Evaluation of artificial feeds for shrimp (Penaeus monodon) production in brackishwater ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
The experiment was conducted in fifteen 500-m2 brackishwater ponds to determine the response of Penaeus monodon juveniles fed with various artificial diets. Five treatments with three replicates each were: two commercial ...
Effect of cholesterol in artificial diets for Mediterranean prawns
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)
Mediterranean prawn (Penaeus kerathurus Forsskal) postlarvae (2 months old) were fed ad libitum with previously tested artificial diet (41% D.W., mainly of vegetal origin) supplemented with different percentages of cholesterol ...
