Biological evaluation of three phytoplankton species (Chlorella sp., Tetraselmis sp., Isochrysis galbana) and two zooplankton species (Crassostrea iredalei, Brachionus plicatilis) as food for the first-feeding Siganus guttatus larvae
First-feeding Siganus guttatus larvae were given different species of phytoplankton (Chlorella, Tetraselmis, Isochrysis) and zooplankton (oyster trochophores, Brachionus) or a combination of both on the first day when they ...
Daily rates of ingestion on rotifers and Artemia nauplii by laboratory-reared grouper larvae of Epinephelus suillus
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1994)
The amount of rotifers and Artemia nauplii consumed daily by the grouper Epinephelus suillus larvae was determined through examination of gut contents. The larvae (2.6 mm TL) were initially fed rotifers on day 2 and newly ...
Daily amount of rotifers taken by a sea bass Lates calcarifer larvae
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1990)
The amount of rotifers consumed by a single sea bass Lates calcarifer larva per day (R) was examined by both the direct and by the satiation-digestion methods. In the direct method, R is estimated by the number of rotifers ...
Effects of salinity on egg development and hatching of Siganus guttatus
(University of San Carlos, 1986)
Experiments were conducted to determine the tolerance of Siganus guttatus eggs to salinity changes. In the first run, the female was induced to spawn spontaneously by using human chorionic gonadotropin. The fertilized eggs ...
Weaning of hatchery-bred milkfish larvae from live food to artificial diets
(Elsevier, 1984)
Two-week old milkfish (Chanos chanos ) larvae (7.5 mm standard length, 2.3 mg wet body weight) previously fed only rotifers were weaned abruptly to six artificial diets (commercial feed TP, artificial plankton AS and BP, ...
Economic assessment of commercial hatchery production of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) fry
(John Wiley and Sons, 1999)
The economic viabilities of two types of commercial hatchery milkfish (Chanos chanos) fry operations were assessed and compared. Based on the actual cost of input, the physical facilities, and the potential production ...
Transport of hatchery-reared and wild grouper larvae, Epinephelus sp.
(Elsevier, 2003)
Optimum packing conditions for the transport of hatchery-reared and wild grouper larvae were investigated under simulated condition or actual air transport. Simulation of transport motion was done through the use of an ...
Improved larval survival at metamorphosis of Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer) using ω3-HUFA-enriched live food
(Elsevier, 1990)
Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer) larvae were fed Brachionus cultured on Chlorella and, as soon as ingestin was possible, different types of Artemia, i.e., nauplii of the San Francisco Bay (SFB) strain, Great Salt Lake (GSL) ...
Effects of feeding frequency and amount of feeding on the growth of the grouper, Epinephelus malabaricus
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1989)
The effects of feeding frequency and amount of food on the growth of juvenile groupers (Epinephelus malabaricus) were investigated for 12 weeks of rearing in net-cages set in an earthen pond. The juveniles (110-130 g in ...
Influence of nutrition on the hepatocytes of Chanos chanos (Chanidae: Teleostei)
(Elsevier, 1984)
The hepatocytes of milkfish (C. chanos) fry and fingerlings offered a variety of diets differ considerably as was shown by means of transmission electron microscopy. For fry it was shown that a 7 day starvation period ...
