Single and mixed species of microalgae as larval food for the tropical sea cucumber Holothuria scabra
(Springer, 2021-05-31)
Different microalgae as larval food for Holothuria scabra, a high-value sea cucumber species with hatchery technology continually being refined to improve production, were studied. Two experiments were conducted to determine ...
Biofloc technology (BFT): A promising approach for the intensive production of ornamental fish
(Bioflux (Bioflux SRL), 2021)
Biofloc technology (BFT) is an approach in the rearing of fish and shrimp as a means to support intensive culture, maintain optimum water quality, recycle the nutrients and reduce feed costs. The technology is primarily ...
Daytime habitat use and abundance of a freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium yui Holthuis, 1950 (Decapoda: Palaemonidae) in tropical forest stream, northern Laos
(Carcinological Society of Japan, 2021-11-30)
From 2008 to 2014, we monitored the abundance and daytime habitat use of the freshwater shrimp <i>Macrobrachium yui</i> at a fixed site on a tributary of the Xuang River in northern Laos. Throughout the monitoring period, ...
Developing a self-sufficient Philippine milkfish industry through value chain analysis
(Elsevier, 2021-02-15)
The Philippine milkfish industry has been dependent on the importation of juveniles for grow-out ever since the decline of wild fry catch and with inadequate supply from local hatcheries. However, self-sufficiency is ...
Comparative transcriptome profiling of heat stress response of the mangrove crab Scylla serrata across sites of varying climate profiles
(BioMed Central, 2021)
<b>Background:</b> The fishery and aquaculture of the widely distributed mangrove crab Scylla serrata is a steadily growing, high-value, global industry. Climate change poses a risk to this industry as temperature elevations ...
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 ...
Performance, digestibility efficiencies, gut and liver morphologies of snub nose pompano Trachinotus blochii fed spray‐dried haemoglobin meal as protein substitute for fishmeal
(Wiley, 2021-07-12)
Spray-dried haemoglobin meal, a by-product and derivative of the swine processing industry, is formed when haemoglobin is separated hygienically from pig's blood. A 120-days feeding trial using snub nose pompano Trachinotus ...
Flakes versus noodles as feed for the abalone Haliotis asinina, does form matter?
(Wiley, 2021-12)
This paper reports the first use of thin flakes (310–315 μm thick) formulated diets as feed for the abalone Haliotis asinina. The study compared noodles and flakes prepared using refined and unrefined diets developed earlier ...
Utilization of a portable glucometer for the measurement of tissue glucose as a stress indicator in ornamental fish
(Bioflux (Bioflux SRL), 2021)
The stress response in vertebrates is determined by measuring cortisol production following acute or chronic exposure to various environmental stimuli. Cortisol assays as responses to stressful events are done on blood ...
Navigating risks and uncertainties: Risk perceptions and risk management strategies in the Philippine seaweed industry
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
The Philippine seaweed industry is affected by multiple but interrelated risks. Farmers mainly encountered environment-related risks (e.g. disease, pest infestations) which, if unmanaged, could result to production failure. ...
