The length-weight relationship, food habits and condition factor of wild juvenile milkfish in Sri Lanka
(Elsevier, 1986)
Wild juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos) were obtained from Negombo lagoon in September 1984. Thirty-one specimens (92–186 mm FL) had a fork length-body weight relationship of log W = −5.6083 + 3.2598 log L. These fish were ...
The effects of artificial diets on fry production and growth of Oreochromis niloticus breeders
(Elsevier, 1985)
Tilapia breeders were fed with pelleted supplemental diets containing 20 or 40% crude protein at a daily feeding rate of 1% of fish biomass for 24 weeks in cages and tanks. Breeders were weighed and fry were collected at ...
The effect of stunting on growth, survival, and net production of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
The seasonal abundance of milkfish fry in the Philippines has led to the practice of buying a sufficient supply during the peak season to compensate for the shortage during slack periods. Fry that are not immediately grown ...
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 ...
Effect of different stocking combinations on growth, production and survival of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forskal) and prawn (Penaeus monodon Fabricius) in polyculture in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1981)
Milkfish (Chanos chanos) and prawn (Penaeus monodon) were stocked in 500 m2 earthen ponds from 12 November 1978 to 15 March 1979 at the following combinations: 2000 milkfish fingerlings per ha (treatment I); 2000 milkfish ...
The effect of dietary protein-energy levels on growth and metabolism of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
<ol><li>Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean weight, 2.8 g) were fed diets containing white fishmeal and gelatin with varying protein-energy to total metabolizable energy (PE:TME) ratios.</li><li>Amino acids were incorporated ...
The economics of retarding milkfish growth for fingerling production in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1987)
Two experiments were conducted to measure the economic viability of retarding milkfish growth (stunting) in brackishwater ponds. In the first experiment, 2-month-old fish were reared for 6 months in ponds with initial ...
Effect of varying dietary crude protein levels on spawning frequency and growth of Sarotherodon niloticus breeders
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1983)
Four-month-old S. niloticus breeders were fed with dry pellets containing 20 to 50% crude protein in two separate experiments. Their frequency of spawning and their growth in length and weight were determined over a 16-week ...
Effects of temperature on behavior, growth, development and survival in young milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Elsevier, 1983)
Effects of three temperature treatments on activity, feeding, growth, development and survival of young milkfish (Chanos chanos) were investigated. Low temperature (<22.6°C) and hypoxial condition (<1 ppm O2) decreased ...
Fry-to-fingerling production of Tilapia nilotica in aquaria using phytoplankton as natural feed
(University of the Philippines at Los Baños, 1982)
Two experiments were conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of phytoplankton as natural feed in fry-to-fingerling production of Tilapia nilotica . In the first experiment, growth and survival rates of fry given a sustained ...
