Enrichment of live food with essential fatty acids and vitamin C: effects on milkfish (Chanos chanos) larval performance
(Elsevier, 1998)
The effects of essential fatty acids (EFA) and vitamin C-enriched live food on growth, survival, resistance to salinity stress and incidence of deformity in milkfish larvae reared in tanks were investigated. Larvae were ...
Requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids
(American Society for Nutrition, 1993)
The dietary requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids were determined in a series of experiments. The fish (< or = 8.0 g) were reared in fiber glass tanks provided with flow-through ...
Requirement for tryptophan by milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) juveniles
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean initial weight 7.7 g) were fed semipurified diets containing 0.9, 1.4, 2.1, 3.1, 4.1 and 6.1 g tryptophan/kg dry diet for 12 weeks. The mean crude protein content of the diets (containing ...
Potential of feed pea (Pisum sativum) meal as a protein source in practical diets for milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 2003)
A 12-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the use of feed pea meal as a dietary protein source for juvenile milkfish. Six isonitrogenous (30% crude protein) and isocaloric (16.5 kJ/g) practical diets were formulated. ...
Food preference of wild milkfish juveniles in connection with habitat and food availability
(Taylor & Francis, 1989)
Through quantitative determination of the gut content of wild milk fish (Chanos chanos) juveniles, the study aimed to evaluate the food preference of the fish in relation to its availability in the pond so that necessary ...
Dietary phosphorus requirement of juvenile milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2001)
Seven isocaloric and isonitrogenous diets with graded levels of monopotassium phosphate to yield total phosphorus levels of 0.28 (no P supplementation), 0.43, 0.58, 0.73, 0.88, 1.03 and 1.18% were prepared and fed to five ...
Effect of dietary fatty acids on growth of milkfish Chanos chanos fry in brackish water
(Elsevier, 1996)
Five purified microbound diets containing 1% of 18:2n − 6, 18:3n − 3, 20:4n − 6, or n − 3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA: 60% 20:5n − 3 + 40% 22:6n − 3) in addition to 8% 18:1n − 9, and a control diet containing 9% ...
Effect of salinity, dietary lipid source and level on growth of milkfish (Chanos chanos) fry
(Elsevier, 1998)
Six semi-purified microparticulate diets containing coconut oil (CO), cod liver oil (CLO), and their 1:1 combination (CO+CLO) at 9% and 18% levels were fed to milkfish fry or late postlarvae in freshwater (0 ‰), brackishwater ...
The essential fatty acid requirement of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
The essential fatty acid (EFA) requirement of milkfish was examined by a 12-week feeding trial using defined, purified diets at water temperature of 28–29°C and salinity of 32‰. The test diets contained varying levels of ...
Growth, daily ration, and gastric evacuation rates of milkfish (Chanos chanos) fed supplemental diet and natural food
(Blackwell Publishing, 1993)
Growth, daily ration, and gastric evacuation rates of milkfish (Chanos chanos) that fed on natural food and supplement diet were evaluated. Milkfish fingerlings (5.5g) were stocked at 1.5 fish/m<sup>2</sup> in ten 12 ...
