Feed ration for different sizes of wild and hatchery-bred milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1999)
Intensified production of fish involves stocking at high densities and the use of artificial feeds. These practices result in eutrophication and environmental degradation mainly because of feed wastage and fish excreta. ...
Evaluation of different supplemental feeds for milkfish (Chanos chanos) reared in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1991)
The effects of supplemental feeding on milkfish growth, production, survival, water quality, and economic benefits in brackishwater ponds were evaluated by comparing a rice bran diet, containing 11.3% protein, and two ...
Studies on the digestive lipases of milkfish, Chanos chanos
(Elsevier, 1990)
Milkfish grown on two natural foods were examined to determine the distribution pattern of the digestive lipases along the digestive tract and to identify the optimum condition for lipase activity. One food consisted of a ...
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 ...
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 ...
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% ...
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 ...
Growth and food consumption of milkfish (Chanos chanos) during dry and wet seasons
(Serials Publications, 1994)
This study was conducted to evaluate the quality of the food consumed by the fish, to estimate the food consumption of the fish in the natural environment during the wet and dry seasons, and to determine the relationship ...
Dietary requirement of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) juveniles for total aromatic amino acids
(Elsevier, 1992)
The phenylalanine requirement of milkfish at two dietary tyrosine levels was determined using a 2× 6 factorial feeding experiment. The amino acid test diets (45% crude protein) contained vitamin-free casein and gelatin ...
