Production of Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) using four natural food types in an extensive system
(Elsevier, 1993)
Growth, survival, and production of P. monodon feeding on four types of natural food, i.e., lablab (benthic mat of cyanobacteria, diatoms, and associated fauna), Ruppia maritima, lumut (filamentous green algae and attached ...
Evaluation of the salinity tolerance of Oreochromis mossambicus, O. niloticus and their F1 hybrids
(Elsevier, 1990)
The salinity tolerance of freshwater-spawned and reared Oreochromis mossambicus, O. niloticus and their F<sub>1</sub> hybrids of various ages was studied. Several tests were conducted using three indices as practical ...
Egg cannibalism by milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) spawners in circular floating net cages
(Blackwell Publishing, 1992)
Egg cannibalism by milkfish spawners in a circular floating net cage was investigated. The cage was lined with a fine mesh hapa net to retain spawned eggs and to prevent the entry of fish egg predators. Water samples were ...
Feed ration for different sizes of wild and hatchery-bred milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1999)
Intensified production of fish involves stocking at high densities and the use of artificial feeds. These practices result in eutrophication and environmental degradation mainly because of feed wastage and fish excreta. ...
Butylated hydroxytoluene: its effect on the quality of shrimp diet stored at various temperatures and on growth and survival of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Elsevier, 1999)
Shrimp diets with and without the antioxidant, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) were stored at 10°, 20°, 28°–30°, and 40°C for 10 weeks. To monitor lipolysis and lipid oxidation, free fatty acid (FFA) content, peroxide values ...
Growth and survival of Penaeus monodon juveniles fed a diet lacking vitamin supplements in a modified extensive culture system
(Elsevier, 1992)
<i>Penaeus monodon</i> juveniles with mean initial weight from 0.11 to 0.17 g were fed diets with and without vitamin supplement. The diets contained 34% protein and 8% fat. The animals were stocked at 5/m<sup>2</sup> in ...
Effects of long-term exposure to a mixture of cadmium, zinc, and inorganic mercury on two strains of tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (L.)
(Springer Verlag, 1993)
Tilapia are an economically important group of fish. They have a short generation period of 3-6 months, and exhibit successive breeding. In addition, their fast growth, herbivorous or omnivorous feeding habits, high food ...
Economic analysis of bottom line and raft monoline culture of Kappaphycus alvarezii var. tambalang in Western Visayas, Philippines
(Elsevier, 1993)
A survey was conducted among 72 seaweed (Kappaphycus sp.) farmers in the Western Visayas region, Philippines, from March to July 1990 to assess their culture practices in terms of production and economic efficiency. Yields ...
Growth, survival and feed conversion of juvenile shrimp (Penaeus monodon) fed a betaine/amino acid additive
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1996)
Diets low in animal but high in plant protein were enhanced with a chemoattractant FinnStim (FS), a betaine/amino additive. These were fed to juvenile shrimp, Penaeus monodon, in three tank experiments. All diets were ...
Ammonia excretion rates of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer, in fresh and sea water
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
The weight-specific ammonia excretion rate of sea bass (Lates calcarifer) fry in fresh water is higher than that of those in sea water. The allometric equation \(y = 24.426 \times ^{-0.4714}\) best describes the relationship ...
