Ecological considerations in milkfish farming in marine pens and cages in the Philippines
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 1998)
Milkfish farming in the Philippines has a long history and great importance, being widely regarded as the way to domestic food security. But the industry has faced new challenges in the past decade, with the advent of many ...
Test of size-specific mass selection for Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L., cage farming in the Philippines
(John Wiley and Sons, 1999)
One generation of mass selection based on the collimation procedure (early culling of large fry) was applied on Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L., in net cages set in Laguna de Bay, Philippines. The objective was to ...
Growth of Gracilaria sp. (Gracilariales, Rhodophyta) in brackishwater ponds at different stocking densities.
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1993)
The specific growth rate (% per day) and net production rate (g per m<sup>2</sup> per day) of Gracilaria sp. cultivated in net cages in a brackishwater pond were determined at different stocking densities (200, 250, 300 ...
Fish farming in marine pens and cages in the Philippines: appropriate technology?
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)
Contributed as Discussant in Technical Session 3 on Environmental Impacts of Marine Fishcage Farming, 12th Annual Meeting of the Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc. (SAEP), held at the BFAR-National ...
Mudcrab pen culture in mangroves
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)
Over the years, commercial production of mudcrab, Scylla spp, has been undertaken only in bamboo or net-fenced brackishwater ponds. Its feasibility was proven through series of verification trials conducted in commercial ...
Lunar synchronization of spawning in sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch): Effect of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue (LHRHa) treatment
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1992)
Based on egg collection records, spontaneous spawning activity of sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch), reared in floating net cages followed a semilunar cycle. The peak of multiple spawnings coincided with declining spring ...
Tilapia cage culture and the dissolved oxygen trends in Sampaloc Lake, the Philippines
(Springer Verlag, 1993)
The 28-hectare tilapia cage culture that occupied the 104-hectare Sampaloc Lake, a crater lake, shifted to intensive method in 1986 when tilapia growth slowed done at the beginning of 1982. Thus, commercial feeds became ...
The effects of different stocking densities and some abiotic factors on cage culture of Gracilaria sp. (Rhodophyta, Gigartinales)
(Walter de Gruyter, 1992)
Specific growth rates (% day<sup>-1</sup>) and production rates (g m<sup>-2</sup> day<sup>-1</sup>) of Gracilaria sp. reared in net cages on a bamboo floating raft from March 1989 to February 1990 were determined at different ...
Cage culture of Kappaphycus alvarezii var. tambalang (Gigartinales, Rhodophyceae)
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Kappaphycus alvarezii var. tambalang was cultured in a 3 × 3 m bamboo raft installed inside a 4 × 4 m floating net cage of Lates calcarifer (sea bass) broodstock at SEAFDEC Sub-station Igang, Guimaras, Philippines, from ...
Analysing the diel feeding patterns and daily ration of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), in Laguna de Bay, Philippines
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1999)
Cage cultured Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, were sampled at a commercial set-up on two occasions in 1995 in Laguna de Bay, Philippines, each time over a 24 h cycle. The stomach content weights were averaged for each ...
