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 ...
Morphometric relationship of length and weight of giant tiger prawn Penaeus monodon according to life stage, sex and source
(Elsevier, 1998)
Regression analysis was performed on length–weight and length–length measurements of Penaeus monodon (n=3270 individuals) including carapace length, body length, total length and body (wet) weight of different life stages ...
Size measurement and nutritional condition evaluation methods in sandfish (Holothuria scabra Jaeger)
(Wiley, 2012)
The aims of this study were to establish an accurate size measurement method and a nutritional condition evaluation method of Holothuria scabra (Jaeger). Although 0.5% KCl and 0.05% MgSO<sub>4</sub> did not induce anaesthesia, ...
Size- and weight-dependent cannibalism in hatchery-bred sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch)
(Blackwell Publishing, 1991)
The relationship of predator size to maximum prey size, and predator weight to weight of prey consumed among cannibalistic sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) in a hatchery were assessed. Maximum prey size was computed from ...
Milkfish (Chanos chanos) production and water quality in brackishwater ponds at different feeding levels and frequencies
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1998)
This study evaluated the effects of different feeding levels and frequencies on milkfish (Chanos chanos) growth, feed efficiency, and water quality in brackish water ponds. Milkfish juveniles (average weight, 1 g) were ...
Comparison of some live organisms and artificial diet as feed for Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Günther) larvae
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
Experiments were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of five live organisms (Artemia, Brachionus calyciflorus, Chironomus plumosus, Moina macrocopa and Tubifex sp.) and an artificial diet (40% protein) in the larval rearing ...
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 ...
Growth and survival of oyster Crassostrea iredalei (Faustino, 1932): A comparison of wild and hatchery-bred spat in grow-out culture
(Elsevier, 2020-12-25)
Oyster farming is an important industry both in developed and developing countries. The high demand for oysters has caused overexploitation of natural stocks. This led to dwindling spat fall and unstable production. This ...
The reestablishment of mangrove crabs (Scylla spp.) in an abandoned pond following natural mangrove recolonization
(Wiley, 2024-01)
<i>Scylla</i> spp. are among the most economically important fisheries resources derived from the mangroves. However, the widespread mangrove destruction resulted in the loss of habitat, thus the dwindling capture production ...
