Comparison of the silo and broadcast methods of applying organic fertilizer in milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), ponds
(Elsevier, 1988)
The efficacy of the silo and broadcast methods of applying organic fertilizers in ponds for the production of pond-floor, microbenthic biological complex, a natural food source known as lablab, was tested in 1-ha ponds, ...

Effects of continuous lighting on growth and survival of first-feeding larval rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus
(Elsevier, 1988)
The effects of 24-h lighting on feeding, growth and survival of first-feeding larvae of Siganus guttatus were tested. Continuous light gave a higher mean survival (31.69%) with a maximum of 40.50% compared to natural ...

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 ...

Cage culture of Oreochromis aureus and Oreochromis niloticus hybrids in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(Taylor & Francis, 1988)
A reciprocal cross of male Oreochromis aureus and female Oreochromis niloticus were made to produce the hybrids stocked in cages in Laguna Lake, Philippines with and without feeding. The growth rates of the hybrids from ...

Growth and survival of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) fry fed at different intake levels and feeding frequencies
(Elsevier, 1988)
This study was conducted to assess the effect of different levels of dietary intake and feeding frequencies on growth and survival of bigheadcarp, Aristichthys nobilis, fry. The feeding rates consisted of 10%, 20%, and 30% ...

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 initial stocking size on the growth of Nile tilapia fingerlings in cages without supplemental feed in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(University of the Philippines, 1988)
Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings were stocked at three different initial size ranges of 1-3, 7-12 and 20-30 g in fixed net cages in Laguna Lake, Philippines. These were reared without supplemental feed for 120 days. ...

Larval rearing of bighead carp, Aristichthys nobilis Richardson, using different types of feed and their combinations
(Blackwell Publishing, 1988)
The effects of different types of feed, given singly or in combination, on the growth and survival of bighead carp, Arislichlhys nobilis Richardson, larvae reared for a period of 12 weeks were determined. Growth was highest ...

Linoleic (ω6) and linolenic (ω3) acids in the diet of fingerling milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
Feeding trials were conducted to determine the effects of linoleic acids on growth, survival, fatty acid composition and liver histology of milkfish. Five isocaloric semi-purified diets were formulated, either lipid-free ...

Artificial diets for milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), fry reared in seawater
(Elsevier, 1988)
Milkfish fry obtained from the wild (0.009 g body weight, 10 mm total length) were stocked at 200 individuals in each of 18 fiberglass tanks containing 30 l of filtered aerated seawater. Mean salinity and temperature were ...
