Influence of feeding rate and diet form on growth and survival of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fry
(Elsevier, 1987)
Young Nile tilapia (12 mg mean body weight and 11 mm total length) were stocked at a density of 5 fish/l in twelve 50-l aquaria filled with 30 l of tap water. They were fed pellet crumbles containing 35% crude protein at ...
Methionine requirement of juvenile tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Elsevier, 1996)
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the dietary requirement of postlarval Penaeus monodon for the sulfur-containing amino acid methionine. Shrimp postlarvae (mean weight 21 ± 0.3 mg) were reared in 40-1 ...
Growth response of three Oreochromis niloticus strains to feed restriction
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1993)
Growth of fry from three test strains of Nile tilapia (CLSU, ISRAEL and NIFI) fed restrictively and nonrestrictively were compared. Four-week old fry were matched for size with similarly aged red tilapia fry which served ...
Effect of dietary protein and lipid levels and protein to energy ratios on growth, survival and body composition of the mangrove red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus (Forsskal 1775)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2001)
The approximate levels of dietary protein and energy that would sustain good growth and survival of the mangrove red snapper <i>Lutjanus argentimaculatus</i> (Forsskal) were determined in two feeding experiments. In the ...
Linoleic (ω6) and linolenic (ω3) acids in the diet of fingerling milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
Feeding trials were conducted to determine the effects of linoleic acids on growth, survival, fatty acid composition and liver histology of milkfish. Five isocaloric semi-purified diets were formulated, either lipid-free ...
Optimum dietary protein level for growth of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) fry in a static water system
(Elsevier, 1991)
Isocalric diets (290 kcal digestible energy/100 g) with protein levels ranging from 20 to 50% in increments of 5% were fed to bighead carp fry (3.8±0.2 mg mean body weight and 9.8±0.1 mm total length) for 7 weeks. Growth ...
Rearing silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Teleostei: Terapontidae) larvae using euryhaline rotifers as starter food
(College of Agriculture and Food Science, University of the Philippines Los Baños, 2021-12)
The silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus is an important but dwindling freshwater food commodity in Philippine freshwater habitats. The influence of feeding regimes on growth performance and survival of first-feeding ...
Growth and reproductive performance of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) reared with or without feeding in floating cages
(Elsevier, 1991)
Bighead carp (10.5 months old) stocked in cages in Laguna de Bay were assigned the following feeding treatments: 1. 40% protein diet, 2. 20% protein diet, and 3. no artificial diet (control), to determine the effects of ...
A practical method of extracting mimosine from ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves and its effect on survival and growth of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1992)
Soaking fresh ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves in tap water (1:1, v/v; or 50 g in 500 ml) for 30-48 hours with a water change after 24 hours extract atleast 90% of its mimosine, a toxic lysine derivative. This ...
Effect of salinity, dietary lipid source and level on growth of milkfish (Chanos chanos) fry
(Elsevier, 1998)
Six semi-purified microparticulate diets containing coconut oil (CO), cod liver oil (CLO), and their 1:1 combination (CO+CLO) at 9% and 18% levels were fed to milkfish fry or late postlarvae in freshwater (0 ‰), brackishwater ...
