Preliminary histological study of the ovarian development of the giant tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
This study was undertaken to determine structural characteristics within the gonads which might serve as an index to age and longevity and furnish information on the frequency of spawning of an individual.
Toxicity of malachite green to the larvae of Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
A study was undertaken examining the effect of malachite green on the development and survival of the zoeae, mysis and post-larvae of Penaeus monodon. Sensitivity varied with the different larval stages; the zoeae appeared ...
Survival rate of Penaeus monodon Fabricius larvae fed Chaetoceros sp. and bread yeast
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
An evaluation was made of the effects of Chaetoceros species, bread yeast and their combination on the survival of Penaeus monodon larvae. In general it was found that feeding with a combination of the 2 resulted in higher ...
Preserved algae as food for Penaeus monodon larvae
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
Uni-algal cultures of C. calcitrans, S. costatum, T. chui and Isochrysis sp. obtained from the laboratory were harvested. The harvest, preserved by either freezing or sun-drying, was fed to the larvae of P. monodon . Among ...
Experiment on larval rearing of Penaeus monodon fed with cultured diatom Chaetoceros calcitran and fermented vegetable trash
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
A brief account is given of experiments undertaken rearing Penaeus monodon larvae fed on diatom (Chaetoceros calcitran) and fermented vegetable trash, which included fruits and their peels, vegetables and rice. The possible ...
Courtship and mating behavior in Penaeus monodon Fabricius
Primavera, Jurgenne H. 
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
An illustrated description is given of the courtship and mating behaviour of P. monodon. Courtship and mating follow three distinct phases: (1) parallel swimming of male and female from the bottom to a height of 20-40 cm ...
A preliminary study on the use of the local variety of ipil-ipil Leucaena leucocephala as a protein source for prawn feed
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
A study was carried out to determine the effect of 10 or 20% leaves or seeds in the diet of Penaeus monodon , and the extent to which local ipil-ipil (Leucaena leucocephala ) could replace head shrimp meal. A brief description ...
The food and feeding habit of Penaeus monodon Fabricius collected from Makato River, Aklan, Philippines
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
The food of Penaeus monodon collected from Makato R., from Sept 1977 to Jan 1978 is described with preliminary observations on its feeding habit and rate of foregut clearance. Feeding behaviour appears to be associated ...
Growth and survival of Penaeus monodon postlarvae fed shrimp head meal and fish meal as primary animal source of protein
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
Although shrimp head meal alone does not provide for good growth and survival, fish meal can provide high survival rate. The addition of shrimp head improves this diet. It is suggested that cholesterol present in shrimp ...
The effect of different binders on the water stability of feeds for prawn
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1978)
Corn starch, gelatin, sago palm starch, agar, and bread flour were tested for their binding capacity in pelleted diets for Penaeus monodon . Agar was found to be good binder, but it costs too much, while bread flour was ...
