Salinity tolerance of larvae of the mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) during ontogeny
(Elsevier, 2000)
Salinity tolerance and the effects of salinity on growth, condition factor and chloride cell (CC) densities were evaluated for Lutjanus argentimaculatus larvae during ontogeny. Tolerance of L. argentimaculatus larvae to ...
Milkfish (Chanos chanos) growth hormone cDNA cloning and mRNA expression in embryos and early larval stages.
(Elsevier, 2002)
In an attempt to understand growth regulation in milkfish, the milkfish growth hormone (GH) and its cDNA were characterized and the expression of GH mRNA in embryos and larvae was examined by RT-PCR. The milkfish GH was ...
Salinity tolerance of fertilized eggs and yolk-sac larvae of the rabbitfish Siganus guttatus (Bloch)
(Elsevier, 1993)
Among naturally spawned and hormonally induced eggs of Siganus guttatus, salinity levels, at which at least 90% of the eggs hatched, ranged from 7 to 67 ppt for naturally spawned eggs and from 9 to 67 ppt for hormonally ...
Partial replacement of Artemia sp. by the brackishwater cladoceran, Diaphanosoma celebensis (Stingelin), in the larval rearing of sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch)
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1998)
A feed experiment was conducted to test the brackishwater cladoceran, Diaphanosoma celebensis, as a partial or complete substitute for Artemia in the larval rearing of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer. The cladoceran was fed ...
Thyroid hormones promote early metamorphosis in grouper (Epinephelus coioides) larvae
(Academic Press, 1998)
The response of grouper larvae to the thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T<sub>4</sub>) and triiodothyronine (T<sub>3</sub>), was examined. Two-, 3-, and 4-week-old grouper larvae were reared in seawater containing either ...
Seasonal availability of calanoid copepods (genus Acartia) in eastern Thailand using a light trap, as food organisms for marine fish larval rearing
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1996)
Zooplankton collected by the torch lighting method were investigated in a tropical coastal seawater pond in eastern Thailand. Copepods of the genus Acartia, such as A. sinjiensis, A. erythaea and A. pacifica, were predominant ...
Morphological aspects of the development of swimming and feeding functions in the milkfish Chanos chanos
(The Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1987)
Development of swimming and feeding abilities based on morphological development of larval and early juvenileChanos chanos was investigated. In larvae smaller than about 6.5 mm SL, mechanical supports of fins and branchial ...
Fatty acid composition of five candidate aquaculture species in Central Philippines
(Elsevier, 2004)
Fatty acid composition was determined in five candidate aquaculture species, mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus), two rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus and S. canaliculatus), coral trout (Plectropomus leopardus) ...
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 ...
Effect of nematode Panagrellus redivivus density on growth, survival, feed consumption and carcass composition of bighead carp Aristichthys nobilis (Richardson) larvae
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
The study aimed to determine the optimum density of free-living nematodes in feeding bighead carp, Aristichthys nobilis, larvae. In the first experiment, carp stocked at 25 larvae L<sup>−1</sup> were fed varying levels ...
