Mud crab pen culture: replacement of fish feed requirement and impacts on mangrove community structure
(Blackwell Publishing, 2010)
Brackishwater pond culture has been a major factor in mangrove loss in Southeast Asia, hence, the need to develop environment-friendly technologies such as mud crab Scylla (Portunidae) culture in mangrove pens exists. This ...
Community-based technology transfer in rural aquaculture: The case of mudcrab Scylla serrata nursery in ponds in northern Samar, central Philippines
(Springer Verlag, 2014)
Finding aquaculture development approaches to open up livelihood opportunities for the rural poor and in mainstreaming smallholder fish farmers to reduce poverty remain a challenge. This paper examines the community-based ...
Extension of nursery culture of Scylla serrata (Forsskål) juveniles in net cages and ponds
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
To address the preference of mud crab farmers for larger size Scylla serrata juveniles (5.0–10 g body weight or BW; 3.0–5.0 cm internal carapace width or ICW), a study was conducted to compare the growth and survival of ...
Mud crab fattening in ponds
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
Two independent experiments on mud crab (Scylla serrata, Portunidae) fattening were conducted simultaneously in 150 m<sup>2</sup> ponds for 30 days: Expt. I - monosex male (286 ± 1.2 g) vs. monosex female (267 ± 0.9 g) ...
Culture of Scylla serrata megalops in brackishwater ponds
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
Three- to five-day old hatchery-reared megalops (4.0 to 6.4 mg body weight) of the mud crab, Scylla serrata, were cultured to the juvenile stage in 20 m<sup>2</sup> net cages installed in brackishwater nursery ponds. To ...
Pond culture of mud crab Scylla serrata (Forskal) fed formulated diet with or without vitamin and mineral supplements
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
The effects of three diets (Diet 1 – with vitamin and mineral supplements, Diet 2 – without vitamin and mineral supplements, and Diet 3 – fish bycatch) and monosex culture (male or female) on the growth, survival, feed ...
Reproductive performance and larval quality of pond-raised Scylla serrata females fed various broodstock diets
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
Scylla serrata females with initial body weight (BW) of 350 to 400 g were previously raised on a defined diet of 75% brown mussel meat and 25% fish bycatch in grow-out ponds at Molo, Iloilo City, Philippines for 120 days. ...
Seed production of mud crab Scylla serrata juveniles
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
A protocol for the large-scale rearing of the mud crab Scylla serrata juveniles was developed based on the results of small-scale experiments on feeding and water management. This paper also reports the success in producing ...
Commercial evaluation of monosex pond culture of the mud crab Scylla species at three stocking densities in the Philippines.
(Elsevier, 1999)
The effects of three levels of stocking density (0.5, 1.5 or 3.0 m<sup>−2</sup>) and monosex culture (male or female) on the growth, apparent feed conversion ratio (FCR), survival, and production of mixed species of mud ...
