Cage culture of tropical eels, Anguilla bicolor pacifica and A. marmorata juveniles: Comparison of growth, feed utilization, biochemical composition and blood chemistry
(Wiley, 2022-11-02)
This study examined the performance and suitability of two tropical anguillid eels, <i>Anguilla bicolor pacifica</i> and <i>A. marmorata</i>, under cage culture conditions. Juvenile eels (1.73 ± 0.14 g body weight) of each ...
Growth and carrageenan quality of sporophyte and gametophyte of the commercially important red seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii
(Science and Technology Information Institute, Department of Science and Technology, 2022)
One dilemma facing the farming of the carrageenophyte Kappaphycus is the deteriorating quality of seedstock. Rejuvenating the commercial stocks using spores from reproductive wild parents that are sexually and asexually ...
A technical and economic evaluation of supplemental feeding strategies for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) reared in lake-based cages
(AquacultureHub Inc., 2022-03)
Tilapia cage farming in eutrophic lakes uses low stocking densities since tilapias can thrive mainly on natural food or minimal supplementary feeding. For semi-intensive Nile tilapia cage culture, feeding strategies to ...
Effect of background tank color in combination with sand substrate and shelters on survival and growth of Scylla tranquebarica instar
(Elsevier, 2022-05)
Effect of tank color in combination with substrate-shelters on the survival and growth of the instar of purple mud crab, Scylla tranquebarica (initial body weight of 28.7 ± 2 mg) was investigated. Ten treatments were tested ...

(Elsevier, 2022-09)
The characteristics of the seafloor environment of the harvesting grounds of the kelp, Saccharina longissima, were evaluated by spatial analysis using a geographic information system (GIS) in the Pacific coastal area of ...
Optimum stocking density and feeding level for laboratory‐reared early‐stage silver therapon (Leiopotherapon plumbeus) larvae
(Wiley, 2020-10-23)
Growth, survival and feeding of early‐stage silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus larvae reared at different stocking densities and feeding levels were examined. Larvae (8 days post hatch (dph); 0.38–0.50 mg body weight ...
Dietary taurine in practical diet for two sizes of snubnose silver pompano, Trachinotus blochii
(Wiley, 2021-09-27)
Two separate feeding experiments determined taurine requirement levels in diets for growth of two sizes of snubnose silver pompano. The first experiment was conducted for 14 weeks using pompano with average weight of 0.4 ...
Use of rotifers-fed microalgal paste in the seed production of mangrove crab Scylla serrata in the Philippines
(Springer, 2022-09-09)
Despite the progress in the production of artificial diets for marine larvae, feeding during the early life stages of most aquaculture species still relies on live feeds such as rotifers. Advanced rotifer culture techniques ...
